the espn/disney ads have surpassed the old mlbtv ads in terms of annoyingness. i do not need to hear the mickey mouse country album again actually

kind of feel like it should be asterisked because he pitched but didn’t hit a few days ago. not asterisked as in doesn’t count, but asterisked as in this is different than what others have done

lots of strange vitello decisions going on here

muchová :)

John Kruk: “I think Craig Counsell must get a bonus for getting every position player into the game”

bryan abreu has a fip of 15.90

high leverage aj blubaugh is horrifying

only half paying attention but did the rockies get told they were out of mound visits there lol

idk about this mason miller guy; with a .250 babip it’s pretty clear he’s getting lucky and will regress

(gets word that he has allowed four batted balls in 21 pa, thus one hit in four) oh i see

lol the audio on the giants broadcast is broken and you can hear the spanish announcers very clearly

dubón type mistake

Oliva come on

Corbinball is unstoppable

no doubt but winn has pitched five times, twice when trailing by 7+ and three times with the game w/in 3 runs. kilian has pitched three times when trailing by 7+ and twice w/in 3 runs. borucki's last two games were trailing by 5 & 6 runs, but he gets thrown into this spot? i'd like more of a pattern

i have to say that vitello using winn, kilian, and borucki in alternating low leverage and high leverage opportunities with no apparent rationale is not super promising

pivot to video in 2026 lol

good bsb idea. categorizing players by blinking style

justin crawford has a 78% ground ball rate lmao

every time i hear about a cardinals prospect its a catcher sneaking onto top 100 lists and somehow they are still giving pedro pagés and yohel pozo regular playing time

I’m starting to suspect that Miles Mikolas is not very good

Astros’ Cam Smith swung at strike three, then walked in a bizarre mishap Initially, both MLB Gameday and Baseball Savant labeled Bello’s third pitch as a ball, though video showed Smith swinging and missing.

Home-plate umpire Mark Wegner admitted he lost track of the count in Cam Smith's fifth-inning at-bat. As a result, Smith swung and missed three times and worked a three-ball walk

“I’ve never done that before. I’m not happy about it. Just made a mistake.” -www.nytimes.com/athletic/716...

the problem with signing luis arraez isn’t that he is bad but that no manager is willing to hit him in an appropriate lineup spot. that should’ve been chapman

blayberg diaz is crazy

most likely, his delivery puts such force on his body that it's simply not physically possible to repeat at a high-leverage level for more than a year or two
