On this day in Royals history :
Sept. 20, 1980: George Brett entered the night batting .400, the latest anyone had been there since Ted Williams in 1941. Brett went 0-for-4 and fell to .396. He never reached .400 again—but finished at an incredible .390 and won AL MVP.
@rock_climber02@jmproductionsyt Framing is one stat. Salvador Perez is an elite defensive catcher and one of the best of his generation of throwing out runners and is a highly respected game caller. Framing has no relevance anymore with ABS.
@JoeMommalikedit@Rep_Stansbury@Limare64 Nah man….the grown ups are out there fighting and putting their lives on the line not buying ice cream machines and millions of dollars on king crab….you think they are giving that to the people on the frontline’s??
Nah man, that shit is in Hegseths private stash
@PulpDudeNV2@notgaetti Trout and Salvador Perez both came into the MLB in 2011.
Trout has:
22 more RBI
43 more Hits
7 more 2B
I'm not suggesting Perez is Trout, but this is why every player needs context and one stat like WAR shouldn't tell a complete story any more than how many hits
@rock_climber02@ItzFoochie@quote_icy@albert8768 @JimmoothyS It’s wild people are still this lame. I remember you arguing with Grandal fans on why he was “elite” due to framing….that dude was a complete shit catcher. Biggest noodle arm I’ve ever seen.
@rock_climber02@craigdhooten Yeah, 75% at catcher is what’s needed to be considered a primary catcher. Many forget players like Joe Mauer don’t qualify as a primary catcher.
Salvador Perez is 14th in MLB history with 1635 hits as a primary catcher. He has played in 1621 games… of the 13 players ahead of him in hits, only 5 have more hits than games played.

Things I continue to see on this app.
1. Sandy Hook didn't happen
2. The Earth is flat
3. We never landed on the moon
4. 9/11 was fake
5. The NFL is rigged
Pretty sure they are all the same people
As Adam has pointed out, Chiefs opponents consistently try and get an advantage by trying to hurt Mahomes, knowing that’s the only way they can win. Thanks for pointing this out Adam, the NFL should ban these players and coaches for this behaviour, it’s unacceptable
