@BaseballWRLD_ You actually think he made this decision?

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@AriWasserman Since 09, the SEC has won 10 national championships. Great take

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@sircoqdecombat I think that Bama wins 7 games

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@SleeperNFL I have Caleb and Jayden in dynasty. Traded for Dart 10 minutes before kick

And yes, I have Nabers as well

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@AriWasserman You said that’s what they paid for after his TD run

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@JoshPateCFB Ah yes, clear robbery means 📈

@On3 Robbery

@theplanetbob @dinobucks @AriWasserman If I remember correctly, Ohio State beat them as well

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@AriWasserman And then what happened?

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@BeaneaterB People are just irritated about the deadline (don’t blame em), but now is definitely not the time to get frustrated. They’re playing good ball. Complain in October

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@BleacherProphet @cjwalters4242 @BaseballWRLD_ You were the one to use Ohtani’s last 24 innings, so what are you arguing?

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@BoopPalls1298 @cjwalters4242 @BaseballWRLD_ Well my argument is with WAR.

There’s no way there should be that big of a gap (to date).

But also, I’d rather have 85 IP with a sub 2 ERA over elite base running and defense

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@BleacherProphet @cjwalters4242 @BaseballWRLD_ That’s essentially saying “PCA’s start to the season was a 97 OPS+ and 96 wRC+”

No one would ever make that argument against PCA, so what’s the point in doing that with Shohei?

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@BeaneaterB Also, a 36% K rate. I’m not buying it, but hope I’m wrong. Imagine that against October pitching 🥲

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@cjwalters4242 @BaseballWRLD_ It’s not fair to dock PCA, agreed. I just think WAR is flawed, if that makes sense. Shohei has only pitched half a season like you said, but at an absolute elite level. I’d take that over an elite glove, regardless of the position. Especially with a similar offensive profile

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@cjwalters4242 @BaseballWRLD_ PCA is elite. I have no problem with him winning MVP, especially at the trajectory of his season vs Ohtani’s.

My point is being an “elite CF” does not equal “elite SP” with a similar offensive profile.

Teams pay $200+ million alone for an elite SP

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@BeaneaterB @ChoppinBravos Bump

[Bear @BryantTrimbur]

@BaseballWRLD_ Nearly identical offensive profiles. At the VERY LEAST, 85 IP with a sub 2 ERA should equal the difference between PCA’s base running and his elite glove. Not only do they not equal, but PCA has 1.4 more WAR. WAR overstates defense and base-running, IMO. Slug and K’s win in Oct

@CJNitkowski The show does roll on, but can still be upset!
