Chamale posted:Byron Buxton is one PA short of qualifying for the batting title, so after taking the penalty for that, he leads the majors in OPS with 1.344. Is there any specific reasons he's doing so well this year? He seems more comfortable at the plate but he's always flashed this potential

seiferguy posted:Pujols has hit so poorly in his last few years his career average dropped below .300. He hasn't had an OPS over .800 since 2012. He's been cooked for awhile. not super surprising for a guy playing into his mid 40s tbh

Popete posted:Altuve had an outside shot but last year and his start this year have not been great. Still too early to say if he's really been effected by fans turning on him, he was a pretty universally popular player before the cheating scandal came out. I think he was affected more by not being able to cheat anymore than the fans turning on him

mcmagic posted:I actually have had a more nuanced take than that. Their pitching, despite Taillon being pretty poo poo, has been better than even I expected and Cole and Chapman have been the best starter and RP in the AL but their hitting has been utter garbo. They had Stanton hitting a homer every other time up for like 2 weeks and they are STILL 24th in the majors in runs scored... their hitting has been objectively terrible. The idea that my saying that their hitting has been terrible when it literally has been is so triggering to people is funny. I'm surprised you even know what the word nuanced means

rickiep00h posted:I'm convinced it's this. It doesn't help that the games I've watched that he's been in his apparently stellar defense has been just awful. yeah I wasn't even half joking, you can pinpoint where the season fell off the rails to the exact moment we had the covid outbreak and he spent two or three weeks on the covid IL obviously there are other idiots preventing the team from reaching the 85% but he feels like the center of it, and I can't imagine the guys who got vaccinated aren't stewing about not being able to go out and do stuff because of the players/staff who are holding them back IcePhoenix fucked around with this message at 16:30 on May 18, 2021 |
