    April MLB Game Thread

    Looks pretty cut and dried to me. You slide to the fielder side of the bag and go past it sliding hard and high into the legs of the pivot then the second half of the double play is called out every time.

    Trevor Story has signed with the Boston Red Sox

    I share your optimism but don't set your hopes too high. From that Statcast page "This accounts for different wall heights and distances, but does not attempt to adjust for environmental effects. " Ball trajectory at Coors will be different to everywhere else.

    Red Sox in season discussion

    This is the part that makes me think this may be more than just driving up the price.

    2021 MLB offseason - news and notes

    With the club not in contact its pretty incredible that Tatis didn't have an MRI on his own if it was hurt enough to Xray.

    2022 Rays: Wander, Randy and The Baz

    Whats Baz going to look like this year? asking from a purely selfish reason. Like his stuff, like his newfound control. Question is how deep will he go into games. Hit 6 innings exactly once at all levels last year.

    Baseball Is Broken (on the field, proposed rule changes, attendance, etc.)

    Catchers would prefer the status quo I would guess. Can't fool a robo ump with a nice frame job. Robo ump could change their position significantly.

    Red Sox sign James Paxton (old thread)

    If the club options are a few mill a year then its a decent gamble I guess. If they are 10 mill per then I like it a lot less.

    The 2021 World Series: Braves vs. Astros

    Congrats braves fans. In the end they did it pretty fucking easy. Never faced an elimination game. Lead from early (ish) in clinching games other than the clinch against brewers. In hindsight they did it about as easy as you can get. Great run.

    The 2021 World Series: Braves vs. Astros

    Maybe if Braves didn't do what they are doing this postseason. No chance now.

    The 2021 World Series: Braves vs. Astros

    Yeah I assume thats the theory but it's bullshit. He stops multiple times and then relifts the front foot still "getting set". Then lifts it again in the same timing to pitch. Anyway...moot!

    Re. Tucker "The reason he has become better this season is because he has become a better hitter". Thanks for that insight.
