@ChrisKirschner Not sure how rare this is, but seems pretty good that the whole lineup today has an OPS over .700. Couldn’t find another team with that looking through last few days’ lineups
@tangotiger@oldhockeycards I think the “failure” to mass market stars by MLB is actually a success at regionalization. Stars will always matter less in baseball vs other more national sports. Getting local fans really invested in their team’s 26 man roster is a feature not a bug
@mike_petriello I’m not debating one knee catching, but couldn’t the current run environment have an influence here ? Unless you’re controlling for that
Iirc there are fewer men on base than ever before and a WP/PB is only called when there’s a runner on (otherwise it’s just a Ball)
