@JimmyFingers19@ComedyOfThings@MarkZinno If Yama is better than Skubal, then Schilling was better than Maddux. Same logic to get to the former gets you to the latter.
@ProGolfCritic@rippergc_ That Sunday putting performance was brilliant, one of my favorite Sunday rounds I've ever seen. But he isn't the defending champion, that's nonsense.
@brantvalach@Brett_A_Taylor Looked like some right to left action on the hop contributed to the miss-play. People acting like Nico makes that play easily are wrong. I'm guessing the standard for an elite second baseman would be to come up with it cleanly and get the runner only if he is relatively slow.
@mcgunth88@ShaneRyanHere I think he will retire somewhere in the Hogan/Jones territory, with a healthy debate for #3 of all time. Long way to go to get there, but I think he will.
@STL_Stats_Facts It's not that analytics hate Gwynn. It's just that analytics show guys like Mike Schmidt (or even Dale Murphy in his prime) were significantly more valuable despite hitting 50+ points lower BA. Gwynn is still an all time great without BA overvaluation.
@bentgrassdoctor When he drove the green on 17, he was still +5300, which was before Thorby had hit his 11 ft eagle putt. I scrambled to jump in, but had to accept +4700. He mightve gone to 60+ after the Thorby eagle. Still, $5 in, $240 out. Only live bet I made at Wast Mgmt.
@privategolfacs I was saying this should be the strategy for LIV from Day 1. Poach the young talent. The system, like most every other professional sport monopoly, involves veterans and owners conspiring to devalue young talent. The Tour has made some steps to address it, we will see.
@nut_history Posey is a lock. Lester doesn't get in on stats alone, but some combo of: (a) new standard for SP; (b) three rings with two storied franchises; and (c) cancer survivor during career, probably gets him a nod from a committee down the road. Better than Baines, that's for sure.
@DKSports77@AndrewKirbyGolf Golf is the only sport where guys 16-60 can play at a world elite level. Phil won a major at Age 50 in the modern era. Get back with us when a 50 year old is starting in the World Series or NBA Championship in the modern era.
@HKSboosted86@ThorbjornOleZyn@Mike_kim714 From 2/6/25 - 3/6/25 he went T2, T13, T13, T6, 4th and made over 2.5 million in about a month. I think he knows his place.
@EddieAG_@lfcaryaa@spotrac It would be lateral pay with a shorter leash and a tougher road to the top. I think he'll stay King of Bloomington/Statue/Keys to the City for quite awhile, rather than jump ship to go coach up a mid franchise to a wild card weekend elimination.
