Hits are an ok stat in the sense that home runs are hits.

Make the Triple count as a run, and then if the hitter crosses the plate it's another run on top of it. CALL ME, ROBERT MANFRED.

Going 3-4 against the worst team by far in baseball isn't how they are going to win this division. mcmagic fucked around with this message at 00:28 on Jul 10, 2018 |

What the gently caress was that? Since May 1 Didi has been a miserable player. That will also need to change if they are going to win the division.

Or the Yankees trying to drive up his price for any other AL contender who is interested. That's my guess, because that trade makes absolutely zero sense whatsoever.

I'm confused by Machado's continued insistence that he only play SS because he seems way better at 3B (but not even in a "He's a bad SS" so much as "He's an otherworldly 3B") and it seems like he's just driving his own value down.

Right now I'm good with them trading for Happ+ a Bullpen lefty. They should go absolutely nuts spending on pitchers this offseason both in the rotation and the bullpen. They can leave the lineup alone.
