@pqb1x@44alcaraz@eastgorteau There are two ways to be an underdog: play like Cabo Verde and earn people’s respect, playing defensive and attacking when you can. Or cheap shots, shit-talking and gamesmanship like Paraguay and be derided by all as losers. Clear difference
@minakimes I think the first time it was used (coined?) was to refer to how Amazon and similar services get progressively worse once they secure a certain critical mass (ie securing supply/demand). Ofc the Internet is full of such services…
@JLas43_ Probably that and the fact this FA is a bit underwhelming on the hitter front...maybe we get a surprise trade like the Donaldson deal (but hopefully a better one lmfao)
@Srechter7 Yes he does. My point is you can’t say the offense was not partially a problem when only one player did most of the hitting and everyone else’s bat was anemic.
@JLas43_ I'm very torn, not that my opinion matters. But like there's a part of me that prefers Tucker despite the lessened versatility on defense, because his offense is more proven? Idk the postseason really left a bad taste in my mouth...
@WellspringGP@YankeesNerds It was a changeup high and away, nowhere close to being a meatball for wells. This is about approach, same way you take a 3-0 pitch, you’re trying to get the guy struggling to throw more pitches and hit the mistake
@OhtaniMVP2021@YESNetwork@RealMichaelKay Terrible comparison seeing as how Clyde wasn’t half the player Jordan was. Everyone seems to remember Bonds or Griffey just fine, as an example
Yankees rookie Cam Schlittler's night is over. He went eight shutout, allowed five hits, didn't walk a batter and struck out 12. He is the first pitcher in baseball history to go eight innings, walk none and punch out 12 in a postseason game.
@BigBabyDavid_ Think the bigger gripe I’ve seen is why Weaver specifically, and his near 8 September ERA. Cruz walks batters a lot so giving him a clean inning with only 2 outs would have been ideal, not to mention some combo of the other options.
@TyGar22 @owenhurley18 @clears_spoon@TAT1SSZN “Same hot pace” vs “1 unbelievable month and cooled off since May” I mean people are making shit up at this point.
