@GarlicFryRy They sold low. They traded him in a deep slump, as if he would be an automatic out forever, but he's hit his career OPS+ since being traded - as one could have predicted. Wilkenson's young for AAA but so far has been giving up a lot of dingers.

@GarlicFryRy Fangraph says Bailey has been by far best defensive player in MLB 2023-26, and highest WAR on Giants 2023-25. Obviously, much of that has been lost with ABS, since so much of it was framing. But, nonetheless, not a player to dump as lightly as they did.

@GarlicFryRy Susac's D has been better this year, yes. But as you know, Susac's not available right now. The G's could use PB now.

Bailey's hitting has progressed to his passable career mean since being traded, as one could have predicted. Getting rid of him was a panic sell.

@DumbEinstein @AppleTVNewsHub Realistic in many ways, yeah. But Fletcher (USS Keeling/Greyhound) and Battle (HMS James/Harry) class destroyers were almost never used for Atlantic convoy escort, they were fleet destroyers. Also, Fletchers weren't deployed yet during the Summer of 1942 (when the movie was set).

@PaulHembo Maybe the best game ever if it had ended with David slaying Goliath instead.

@Ken_Rosenthal "passion, perseverance and grit"
The Dodgers players are technicians in Andrew Friedman's machine. Massive payroll, best analytics coaching support in the game, and the smartest GM. The fact that this world series was that close showed a lack of passion, perseverance and grit.

@jon_greenberg @TylerKepner Plucky underdog low-payroll Dodgers took a chance on an unknown nobody pitcher that no other team saw any value in or wanted on their team. Amazing.🙄

@MLBONFOX @Ken_Rosenthal @Dodgers It's just amazing what the biggest payroll in baseball and a GM who is smarter than everyone else can do

It was a force play at home

Runner on 3b should have run thru

You slide to avoid a tag

IKF at contact on that Varsho play.

Inexcusable lack of secondary lead. Over-emphasis on avoiding a line drive double play. IKF can basically be as far away from third as Muncy is.

He has at least two more steps.

Only needed one.
