Here's a weird thing I noticed about Jose Bautista after reading a Hardball Times article recently, why is his BABIP so incredibly low for his career? Its .233 this year and .267 for his career. It can't just be that he's slow or something, does he pop up a whole lot? I don't get it.

Retail Slave posted:Does Manfred still want to make shifts illegal, or did he quietly drop it after everyone said how profoundly stupid it was? I don't get why reverting the strike zone to pre-2013 levels is out of the question. Like, its demonstrably bigger and lower than what it was, so why go after shifts, which has been a part of baseball forever Deathlove posted:*licks finger, holds up to wind* dexter fowler is actually very good he's been extremely good and I hope they can resign him for the next few years but he wont be cheap at this rate

Kevlar v2.0 posted:I still won't feel comfortable with any size lead. After the game the Cubs lost when they took a 4-0 lead in the first inning? I wouldn't feel safe with 10 runs because the Cardinals are literally the loving Devil. So far so good though. Nice to get into the bullpen so early in the first game of a series (though its less meaningful with expanded rosters, but still)

Kevlar v2.0 posted:God drat it, Bryant. You just made Matheny look like a competent manager. They knew his one weakness, a high strike out. (it also happens to be the same weakness of nearly every player on the team)

The Cardinals are in complete free fall mode but the Cubs are facing their most dangerous enemy, the Philadelphia Phillies, and wont be able to take advantage

Sydin posted:Coghlan has turned into some kind of baseball savant today. He's normally pretty good anyway, but he's 3-for-3 with two triples, a HR, and an incredible diving catch at the wall. He's like 4 feet away from 3 homers too He's been a really great piece for the Cubs
