Rest Of Baseball - 2021

kluber has the personality of a piece of wood

last time a no hitter happened on b2b days. astros were no hit on april 30, then did it on may 1. against cinci, who had 2 hall of famers (3 with rose) and a pinch hitting appearance by chico ruiz from chico ruiz stole home fame.

7 of the 9 met opening day starters are on the DL

kenny r column today blamed the terrible league wide offense on pitcher dirtying up balls

if this is indeed happening like its 1930 then why isnt the league cracking down

[ice grillin you]

lol sure that's what it is

[MDS]

its a pretty extreme drop from last year and 19, and its not like people started launch angling this season

but im sure the reason is like billy beane or something?

[ice grillin you]

you nerds will do anything to not blame it on analytics

[MDS]

theres no doubt launching angle and velo are factors

so is the deadened ball and ball doctoring

multiple things can be true

[ice grillin you]

I guess but one is 5% of it and the other 95%

so really which is it

also the doctored ball is conspiracy type shtein

Lolol

Thank you

love talking ball with 2 people who have the baseball IQ of a tree stump

watch the dodgers for a minute. they launch angle to all hell. they have tons of velo. they win. the phillies lose. geeeeeeeeeee i wonder why

[ice grillin you]

the dodgers having more talent than everyone is irrelevant...who ever has the best players on a wiffle ball team is gonna win...someone has to win the World Series even when the game sucks

this bullshtein has made baseball unwatchable not dirty balls not dead balls...say it out loud: analytics

[MDS]

ok dont watch it anymore

or kvetch like a bubbee sitting by the ac unit that its too cold

[QB Eagles]

It's all part of the same thing really. Pitchers have more statistical data on themselves than ever. In training they have instant feedback on what tiny modifications improve their velocity and spin. Their conditioning is dialed in. Their pitch count is dialed in. Their grip is dialed in. And yes, their doctoring is dialed in too.

fargin Theo Epstein over here

[MDS]

yes, the man who built 2 world series winning teams for 2 franchises that hadnt won a series in a century using....analytics

theres also this random luck: they were bad there was kris bryant to draft. the phillies are bad there is adam haseley
