@danwiederer He has 0 misses in the first round so far, and has home runs in Loveland and Wright so far, and hopefully another in Williams, and another in Burden. And MAYBE (though less likely) even another one in Rome. That's awesome.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@notgaetti Hey, we finally agree! It'd be so fucking dope to have Kerry Wood or some other well-known not insanely old guy going out there and throwing a few innings.

Would be dope as hell.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@Delta43_Fatigue @RpsAgainstTrump I mean, Milo sucks and is an idiot. But so are you mate.

You should always want all humans to be treated with a reasonable amount of dignity, and minimal necessary force.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@Travis_ir @t_mansfield1 @Ozymetsdias He is 10% better in his career against lefties than righties. You're just wrong. Obviously that is not a HUGE difference, but it's big enough when the better half is against the less common pitching side and against righties you're straight up below average.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@BornOnThirdCubs I mean the offense absolutely is.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@yelichfans Rizzo was actually trying.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@notgaetti It definitely is though. That's why almost every team has an above league average hitter at 1B.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@fubarjr11 @DevilofAl @DanWolken Nope. You're just a dumbass.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@WrigleyPulse @UnderdogMLB Ian Happ has a 120wRC+ against RHP in the month of August and a 127wRC+ on the season against RHP. He's not playing because the starter is a lefty.

Please learn ball.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@DevilofAl @DanWolken I mean, I know you wore your mask on your neck, but she had it on properly.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@trelyday23 I do think it sort of can. Players are humans, and humans can be impacted by emotion. I think it's not impossible that in some games there are teams or individual players who fuck up because they start overthinking.

But that's not because of "momentum" it's just the mental game

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@WatchBaseball @notgaetti Can't believe someone who hates analytics would be someone who takes numbers out of context. I'm stunned.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@PrazMaster But that you've backed yourself SO far into the corner that this is your best, good day. I accept your concession.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@PrazMaster Followers are meaningless in terms of the validity of arguments. I don't POST on twitter, I just reply cause it's fun to banter when my students are busy. I'm a math teacher buddy. This isn't my job.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@PrazMaster False.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@PrazMaster It is not better enough to warrant your fake criticism or pretending that you'd rather have had Belli for significantly more money.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@PrazMaster I have already said in this conversation I would be fine letting Happ go this offseason. I dunno about Pedro being there, but whatever gets him in the lineup. I think his bat has the potential to be very good.

Again, none of this address what I was asking about.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@PrazMaster Absolute bullshit. He had ONE year better than anything Happ produced. A 124wRC+ is not meaningfully different from what Happ did in 2022 or 2024. Complete nonsense.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@PrazMaster I don't know a single person that is a legitimate Ian Happ fan. And again, you complaining about Happ because marketing is stupid is NOT an Ian Happ problem. Complain about the thing that is actually the problem, which is NOT Ian Happ.

[Doug Wills @doogolas]

@PrazMaster I think Hendry was a solid GM. Wrong tree mate. You haven't actually legitimately criticized Happ yet. You've just complained about things that have nothing to do with him.
