I think both will be better than Bauer
Craig Edwards
6:16
it does say something.
JJ

Our fantasy league is about 250 hitters deep and only 2 Tigers are rostered
DK
6:16
what do you put the chances at that we see a .400 hitter this season?
Craig Edwards
6:17
Dan, just did a piece on that and had it at 9.5% https://blogs.fangraphs.com/toppling-ted-the-60-game-season-and-the-40...
6:18
I had it at a little over half that using a different method. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/will-a-player-hit-400-this-season/

every time I check Cabrera's contract I swear he's got two more years on it than I thought he did
Craig Edwards
6:18
It isn't likely, but it is certainluy more possible than it used to be.
6:19
Cabrera signed a deal two years before it even started, which probably helps with your confusion.
JJ
6:21
Shoop - Cabrera - Cron  there figured out your poll for you
Lorenzo
6:21
I would think the % is much lower closer to 5% if pitchers prove to have the edge early on in a 60 game season.  Bellinger flirted with it early on but he showed hard hard it is to even maintain .370 much less .400.
Craig Edwards
6:23
Seems crazy Cabrera hasn't gotten to 500 homers yet. He was at like 450 three years ago and he's still 23 away.

Diaz facing the heart of the order in the 9th is already giving me ulcers...
Craig Edwards
6:23
He's warming up.
and he'll probably be fine this year.

Thoughts on cardboard fans? I think I like it more than empty seats aesthetically
Tony Wolfe
6:24
I like it a lot better than that weird virtual thing FOX is considering
Craig Edwards
6:24
I think it is kind of neat. Just something a little different.
Sgt. Pepper
6:25
Pretty indifferent towards what they do with the seats but I think the fake crowd noise is working really well.
Craig Edwards
6:26
I think it probably takes a bit of practice, but it definitely works. I liked it a lot watching premier league.

I would like to see DiMaggio sitting with Marilyn Monroe
Craig Edwards
6:26
might be some legal issues with that one.
Guest

Crowd noise is also important so we don't hear just how many times these guys drop F bombs.
Craig Edwards
6:26
joc pederson really let one fly last night.
nimbo

New York Center fielders are somehow very underrated
Craig Edwards
6:27
not healthy last year on either side, unfortunately. Will be good to see potentially healthy New York center fielders this year.
6:28
Good play by Freeman there. Not the only one of the day for him, either.

Castellanos, bases loaded no outs vs former club... love baseball!
Greene
6:29
This is a very Detroit way to start the year.
Craig Edwards
6:30
While I was not one of those people, three people picked Castellanos for MVP. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/fangraphs-2020-staff-predictions/
Tony Wolfe
6:30
I was ALSO not one of those people
man boyd looks rough
JJ
6:30
boyd all over the place
Nick

That was quite the "throw" from Maybin--worse than Fauchi's first pitch last night.
Papi seed muffin

Didn’t see the first out of the ninth. Keep up the great work Worldwide Leader
