I think that the A's would go Bassitt?
Paul Sporer
5:32
Always hold Brantley in esteem for his '14 breakout as I was an early believer so I had him on several teams quite cheaply
Quarantino Martinez
5:32
Maybe I'm in the minority, but I've had enough of the homeruns this post season. It's too much!
Chamaco
5:32
I can’t listen to Francoeur without thinking of this: https://www.mlb.com/cut4/video-jeff-francoeur-san-diego-padres-el-paso...
Ben Clemens
5:32
Whattttttttt
Paul Sporer
5:33
The three true outcomes in general has grown tired. There just isn't enough non-HR contact/hits
Ben Clemens
5:33
I think walks are the worst, honestly
Paul Sporer
5:33
OMG I remember that Francouer story
Jkim

That was the biggest meatball I've seen to Brantley
Paul Sporer
5:34
LOL
Ben Clemens
5:34
Haha I did not expect to see that
5:35
This is starting to get away from Oakland a little
Chamaco
5:37
Remember when Mike Minor was one of the best pitchers in baseball, way back in...2019?
Ben Clemens
5:37
Or: why ERA and even FIP can deceive you
Paul Sporer
5:38
Or he was just good for that year?
I don't see how '20 would invalidate '19
Ben Clemens
5:38
Yeah, either one
5:39
I guess my point is that people use them predictively more than they should?
Paul Sporer
5:39
Without a doubt
Ben Clemens
5:39
No one would dispute that Minor was good last year, he saved a lot of runs!
Paul Sporer
5:39
There's a reason projection systems use multiple seasons
Ben Clemens
5:39
But I don't think anyone thought he'd be a a beast in 2020
Yeah
Or, I hope Mike Minor thought he'd be a beast in 2020
Paul Sporer
5:39
Braves win
I thought he'd be solid, but not a beast
Ben Clemens
5:39
But outside of that
5:40
I mean he wasn't clearly worse this year than last year
Paul Sporer
5:40
It seems perhaps his Sept. '19 HR issue carried over to '20 bc that's the only thing that really changed
Ben Clemens
5:40
Yeah
Phil
5:40
What’s the Dodgers pitching plan tonight? May for a few then to Urias?
Paul Sporer
5:40
I'd think so, yeah
Ben Clemens
5:40
I think so as well
They might be flexible with May
5:41
Like if he's shoving, let him keep going
5:42
Jeez this series just set a record for homers in a 5-game series
... halfway through G4
Jkim
5:43
Lol just how bad were the Rangers this year if they put up those numbers at *that* ballpark?
Ben Clemens
5:43
I'll have to look through the numbers again, but I thought Globe Life was a pitcher's park this year
(obviously needs to be heavily regressed)
