AWOO!

Mets

Phillies are a cute

Mitch Haniger

Not a Mets fan, and I'm actually curious why a Phillies fan would brag to a Mets fan about the Nationals anyway? Aren't you supposed to be divisional rivals, or are you too small-time for that?

Why do you do this?

Did not expect to see someone else posting awoos!

Because I have nothing better to do with my day off

>my day off
You do this literally every day, in /nfl/ and here. Just stop.

>my day off

Nigger don't bullshit me. You do this shit all the time in multiple threads and boards.

who /bestleague/ here

who /11wins/ here?

No baseball for the next 2 hours? Who the fuck scheduled today?

...

I meant making them, Bucko

right here

A male Kansas City Royals fan reached back and socked a woman in the face after she allegedly spit on him in the stands at a game ... and BOTH people got arrested.
It all went down Tuesday night at Kauffman Stadium late in the game against the Giants.
Our video shows a man wearing a #15 jersey unloading a haymaker on a woman -- knocking her back.

Obi Hahn pls go get Robert

clearly not you

In the event of an Astros/Cubs eries, which team would whos fans root for?

Animefags are worse than bronies. At least they finally realized how obnoxious it was to spam their shit everywhere.

Obsessed detoileters commit mass suicide as Indians win April baseball game. Cries of "2010 all over again" heard among the dying

Literally who are you referring to?

>red sox have 3 (THREE) aces

its coming home, faggots

Why do you guys entertain the dumb questions asked by foreigners?

Do a fucking Google search. Stop replying and spoon feeding these faggots explaining rules. If you care enough you'd do a small search and have it all explained better than any of us could.

I don't get it. I'm all for thr international exposure of out sport but when I see 4 faggots reply to a question about what a 2-3 means it confuses me.

The royals have the best last 10 out of the AL Central, ONTO WINNING THE DIVISION

I agree. Anime is a pretty boring form of entertainment.

What happened to the other two?

Why are you such an asshole about something that doesn't affect you in any way?

White Sox offseason news

Hey Poland. Which poland poster are you.

not that guy but you sound like one of those soft anime faggots from your tone. Am I wrong?

which team is the most pan-african

*strikes you out*

Not a big fan of anime really, watched DBZ when I was little but that's about it. I just don't get his point; these people are coming to /mlb/ because they're genuinely interested in baseball. Why drive them away by being a cunt?

what kind of dumb question is that?

I can't think of a less "rival" team than the Astros. Our Sup Forums guys may fap to 2d anime traps, but I don't think any of them are cucked enough to want to see the cubs win anything.

Phillies!

>Am I wrong?
Yes, about many things. Consider re-evaluating your entire life.

It annoys me to see people entertain stupid questions. It's like when faggots come to threads asking for game start times. Are you fucking forreal? You can't fucking google what time a game starts? You can't Google "baseball 101 rules"? Really faggot?

Can anyone unseat the Buffaloes?

Alright, /mlb/. Reply to this post with:

idk, the handful of white sox fans I've met irl have been dicks about the 05 eries a decade or so afterwards, so I wasn't sure if who's fans in general still hated >us or if I just happened to meet the trash ones

Sox win again.

I've always thought they must be cross-boarders. On pretty much every other board with a culture of generals, the OP has a static infodump that gets reposted with shit like FAQs and links to info and resources. Always being spoonfed makes them go into full confusion when the spoon isn't obviously visible, so that it doesn't even occur to them to go look for one.

Phillies
New York Mets

I agree with you that asking for game start times is retarded. But in the last thread at least the Polish guy was asking for info on specific MLB teams. Is he supposed to glean what type of team they are from Wikipedia?

I hate all kinds of people, but astros people are not among those people. We swept the series on your homefield, you guys should hate us if anything.

thoughts?

I personally don't like punishing the reliever for inherited runs, but the general principle sounds solid. Name is stupid though, I refuse to call it the goose egg.

It's a step in the right direction. Needs a more classy name.

citation needed

How about just a plain descriptive name so that people don't have to wonder what the fuck the special snowflake stat means?

I propose going with CLIP: Clutch Innings Pitched

Obviously it's not just about pitching a scoreless inning, but in an inning that matters as well, so I figure clutch works better.

great stat and argument tbqhwu
the closer and lefty specialist roles are pretty antiquated, and this is a solid way to push for progress

Hi

I like that. I also think that the "broken egg" stat can be tweaked a little to give credit for clutch relief earlier in the game. Let's say your starter only gives up 2 runs, but has poor efficiency and only goes 5 innings because of pitch count. Obviously you're not gonna bring your bullpen ace out in the 6th, but I would argue that a 2-2 game in the 6th inning with the other team's starter still going strong is still a pretty clutch situation that guys don't really get credit for.

Fucking Jake Marisnick has the same amount of home runs as Correa, Altuve, Gattis, Bregman, and Beltran combined, and the Astros are still 11-5. Wow.

Aoki has more dingers than Altuve

> I would argue that a 2-2 game in the 6th inning with the other team's starter still going strong is still a pretty clutch situation that guys don't really get credit for.
I'd agree with that, but I don't know if that would be something that's folded directly into the base concept here. There's lots of measurable facets of sports that can't be directly categorized or lumped into general stats, situations like that might be among them. With this conversation though, I think the proposed idea for how to overhaul saves is both sound in foundation as well as easy to understand and apply in a general sense, that it's worth deserving of its own distinction.

Graham Bensinger with the fresh Pete Rose interview.

You're right, there's not really a need at this point to overdo it on the numbers. I'm excited to see bullpen usage change in general in the next couple years if stats like that can catch on though. Guys like Andrew Miller or Chris Devenski are much, much more valuable than the closer archetype that every organization seems so ready to throw money at imo. Also, progressing toward that type of reliever usage can make a positive difference in pace-of-play without cheapening other aspects of the game.

you now remember the time Kaz Matsui went on the DL because of anal fissures

Generally I'd just like to see teams try to actually do things that improve their team's chances of winning rather than adhering to obsessions over metrics. Like how some teams have been pulling their starter too early lately due to taking the hardline on keeping under a specific pitch count. The kind of reasoning used to support that is just backwards and getting priorities swapped, not to mention not even working.
