Major League Baseball has a new leader in Wins Above Replacement, and it's Bobby Witt Jr.
American League MVP voting this year is going to be diabolical.
@Shaun93876049@deanciriaco@JeffPassan Alright it’s definitely close and saying otherwise is ridiculous.
Witt has been elite at the plate, elite in the field at one of the most valuable positions in the sport, and elite on the bases.
Judge is having a historically good offensive season but not adding value elsewhere
@CupofMets@BRWalkoff@Colleen_Wright Tampa/st Pete is a very solid sports town (lightning, bucs). New stadium will lead to plenty more fans actually going to games
Analytics are neat at all, and I know Paul Skenes was at 99 pitches..
But taking him out after 7 no hit innings?? After he just threw a 6 pitch 7th??
His day is over after striking out 11 and being 6 outs from a no no 😔
@FarleyEducator@connvealmorris@TheVXTian@WIPMiddayShow In Bryce’s best season ever, and his first MVP year, his team missed the playoffs.
The year after Bryce left the nationals, they won the World Series.
He must not be very good…
See how dumb your arguments sound?
@AwesemoDFS Considering the fact that Oak is currently only 2.5 games out of first in a bad division and with one of the best bullpens in the league, -20000 is a horrible bet.
@SnakeyesDVM@BBGreatMoments That’s the problem - they’re not 95mph+. If they had been, the way he’s catching them… he’d sprain his hand (at a minimum).
@SleepyCongress1@BBGreatMoments I was talking about your comment on a full ride those are very rare. Pitcher skipping college to go to pros are just as rare . hell even college pitchers are 3-4 years away on avg
@case_vince@NV_DPBbet@BBGreatMoments Depending on the methodology you use Grandal either has 22 more WAR or 5 more WAR. No wonder you’re done here, you’re wrong lol.
@stats_nats@NV_DPBbet@BBGreatMoments 2X higher? it is 5 points higher...19.1 vs 13.9. A lot of their career numbers are close. Both 2X all-stars, Joc has 2 rings.
Trying to understand what players splits Davey cares about is enough to drive someone mad
Winker 103 wRC+ against lefties doesn’t play against lefties
Meneses 41 wRC+ against lefties bats 4th against lefties
I can keep going
James Wood is the No. 1 prospect in baseball.
The discussion of Wood vs. Jackson Holliday was a long, diligent and difficult one.
How did we decide that the @Nationals outfielder should be the top prospect in baseball?⬇️

@ALF4Prez2020@gibsonenthusies@optimistic5518 Yeah, he seems to be hitting the ball hard pretty consistently which is good, but walks need to come up and strikeouts need to go down. Hopefully that happens as he gets more comfortable with that level of pitching
