@trentlpare@Prominent_Jaay I mean yeah but that's because they have a whole ass pitching staff on the IL. I think Schneider has been fine, should've pulled Hoffman for Seabold sooner but Seabold sucked too. He's got nothing to work with rn. If he had a better option I think John would've pulled him sooner
@BluejaysAlways@RobWong34 Yeah that's probably the move I would've made as well, it's just so obvious when Hoffman doesn't have it - as soon as you recognize its one of those days he has gotta be yanked. Just pointing out their other options were pretty awful too lol
@BluejaysAlways@RobWong34 I agree, but to be fair Seabold was a dumpster fire too and also didn't get an out so idk what going to him sooner does for them
@RaptorsDevotee They had literally no one else. Seabold was just as bad and their only other option was Juenger who'd be making his mlb debut. In hindsight you'd keep Varland out but Hoffman had been good enough recently to justify putting him in with a 4 run lead. This game is on Jeff, not John
@Daniel11108090@ChrisCoop_ Yeah it'd probably be similar for both in terms of projections imo. Maybe there's some interesting insights based on what kind of pitchers the team lit up for 12 runs but I fear that's delving too deep into the hypothetical lol
@ChrisCoop_ Too lazy to check these numbers but assuming this reddit comment is correct (win pct by runs scored):
Team A: 15 * 0.729 + 10 * 0.371 = 14.6 wins
Team B: 5 * 1.000 (assume you go 5/5 with 12+) + 20 * 0.371 = 12.42 wins
Even being generous to B, A is significantly better
@CbuttyVGC@VGCVictoryRoad It'd probably be a pain to make but could you do win % out of eligible events? Like Raging bolt won 23 but surely wasn't eligible for nearly as many as incin
@RobWong34 Watching it live I was wondering how nobody challenged that. It was a backpick to first so don't blame the ump too much for not seeing it but Valenzuela or Gausman didn't challenge
