@KKatPanda Climbing is not what it used to be, based on win rates. You could have higher than 50% win rate and still lose more than gain. Theres a point where climbing is not as serious as it used to be.
JORGE POSADA: “I CAN’T WATCH TODAY’S BASEBALL.”
Yankees legend Jorge Posada, a 4-time World Series champion and one of the faces of the dynasty years, (The Core 4) did not hold back during his interview on Abriendo El Podcast.
Posada said today’s game has become too robotic, too obsessed with formulas, and too accepting of strikeouts.
“The baseball being played today is garbage,” Posada said.
He also pushed back hard on the analytics crowd trying to judge Derek Jeter’s defense strictly through modern numbers.
“You can’t judge Jeter through a computer.”
That line right there is pure old-school Yankees.
Posada came from an era where putting the ball in play mattered. Moving runners mattered. Taking pride in not striking out mattered. He said back then, striking out 100 times in a season felt like you were not doing your job.
Now? Guys can strike out constantly, hit 30 home runs, bat .202, and still get paid like stars.
His message was simple:
The game got smarter on paper, but dumber between the lines. #yankees #repbx
Woke up today wishing there was another day of games for the @Doublelift1 Retirement Home tournament, but it was the perfect amount of everything. They all still got it.
Props @leena_xu@TeamLiquidLoL@Alienware for putting together an awesome show.
@KKatPanda Honestly, it depends on what you like at the end of the day. Ik any league player that sees this is red flag immediately, but everyone knows the game sucks, so at the end of the day just do what makes you happy
