@AveryChenier @mystikos9 @JohnnyGiunta_ Get 3 option years. Means this year counts as an option year. But there is a cap of 5 moves per season. They are there to be used. I dont see an issue. Just bad luck on Bargy getting hurt again. Fkn way she goes

@bobatyork @MarshaIIZach I would call it utility. Backups/bench players play less. But then its just a semantics argument vs the meat of the subject. We both agree but call it something different

I really don’t wanna be that guy, but Ernie Clement has -1 DRS & -3 OAA with a .277 xwOBA on the season. He’s really gotta find his game here, because it’s starting to look quite bad so far.

@bobatyork @MarshaIIZach I wouldnt say backup. He is the player that gets in 3-4 games a week rotating spots to give guys rest. There is value there. Maybe not as an everyday player. That said, I'd give it more rope. Its early May. Lets revisit in June.

@JohnnyGiunta_ @Damon98_ I hate it. But it has to be a player with options going down. The team needs a spark though. It might be worth doing a team first play over a business first play.

@Damon98_ And the fact schneids plays outfield helps his case as well. They have so many LHH outfielders. Either way Pinango can’t go down he’s been too good.

Let me preface this by saying I firmly believe Davis Schneider is the one losing his roster spot today and it's deserved. BUT, something funny to consider: Schneider wRC+: 71 Sosa wRC+: 69 Schneider xwOBA: .299 Sosa xwOBA: .285 Schneider OBP: .313 Sosa OBP: .250

@DownToBlack Maybe I'm an old now. I feel of all those, 10% are easily errors without a doubt in my smooth brain. 30% are in a grey zone that I could see either way, but would lean most likely to error. The remaining 60% I would score hits.

#MLB ⚾️🧵🪡: Official Scoring (What Is A Hit)? Fielding Pcts are higher than ever but as we've watched the Jays this year, it's tough to gauge what will be scored a hit vs error. So, wanted to quiz baseball fans on their read of what is & isn't a hit. (Answers at end of 🧵)

@theScore McKenna is the easy pick. Nobody would fault that pick. Outside the box. Would I do this? I don't know. Trade down if you can secure additional assets and draft the Ruck twins? Not saying I would do it. Just food for thought.

@wokelibretard @iiCL4RK @MatthewLeeRosen I think what they mean is that pitch. That is so close that I would not fault a human for getting it wrong. How often does the ball get painted like that? I would have loved to see ABS with Maddux.

@iiCL4RK @MatthewLeeRosen The ump’s accuracy rating is typically 93-94% not “near impossible to be higher than 50”. They have a job, they’re good at their job.

In this instance, less than 0.5% of the ball has actually touched zone. It does't seem justifiable to reverse the umpire's call. The ABS system calculates inches & surface data. I think the rules should be adjusted, so that 25% of the ball must be in the zone for a strike.
Matthew Lee Rosen@MatthewLeeRosen

Why is this a strike?

We had Yankees fans tweeting Trey Yesavage rehab stats to say he’s washed LOOOL. He is shoving. This man caused irreplaceable damage to that fanbase

This is rough for Max but I saw it coming. Even though his fastball was hitting 94 in his last start I was timing it from my couch and it was closer to 84 when it actually reached the batter box. You could clearly see something was wrong
Ben Nicholson-Smith@bnicholsonsmith

Max Scherzer says he has nothing structurally wrong & he’s been advised to rest for 5-7 days & go from there Says his delivery was impacted because he couldn’t land & rotate properly on left ankle but hopes to be back asap

@RobWong34 Well yeah. Everyone would love more slug. If I was a HOU fan Id look ay Yordan and say, Id love more slug. To quote an old sugar crisp commercial - you can never get enough

I think we would all love Vlad Jr to have more slug at this point of the year but he’s got a higher wRC+ (150) AND bWAR (0.9) than: Bryce Harper Nick Kurtz Freddie Freeman Pete Alonso Rafael Devers He’s having a very solid start to the year
Daniele Franceschi@Daniele_Media

John Schneider on the #BlueJays’ offence & Vlad Jr.’s season to date: “There’s pressure on Vlad to be the guy… I think the work is there. Him, and everyone else, we’re missing the slug.” #BlueJays50 (Via @FAN590)

@TheRealHoz35 A 0.297avg is very good. A 0.345 OBP is also very good. I'm not quite sure what you are trying to say. No disrespect brother. Are you saying because he ranked 23 in the NL its not good? That is also very good?

Question for all my new age baseball students out there …… How in 2025 did Nico Hoerner finish 2nd in batting average but 23rd in OBP in the national league? If not drawing walks is your answer please provide his whiff% and provide his contact percentage on swings he made in 2025 and where it ranks amongst NL hitters. @StevenCheah I hate what you’ve done to me but it’s never been more clear the students need their teacher

@JohnnyGiunta_ Its easy to quantify value for walk vs single. Can a runner score from 2nd when the batter walks? Can they score from 2nd if the batter singles? Both are not equal.

Trying to explain the sport of baseball and the numbers to Eric Hosmer feels similar to explaining physics to me. Just completely hopeless and will never understand

@JohnnyGiunta_ No knock to Brandon. He looks like he can become a real good backup. But losing the best catcher in the game does hurt

The past 2 weeks without Alejandro Kirk has truly proved he is the team MVP. watching this catcher defense in crucial moments without him looks like a different sport

@JohnnyGiunta_ I read the ball the same as him. I thought it would bounce. It stopped dead. Way she goes. All that soft contact and run scored is bad luck. No point focusing on a single play when the offense cant put up more than 1.

The comments that the Toronto Blue Jays are missing Bo Bichette right now are infuriating me. Will he be good this season? Of course, however Ernie Clement has been a more valuable player and has a higher WRC+ so far this season. This fanbase would be ripping into Bo rn.
