Brandon Marsh

[ten ocho recon scout]

Started the year hot. Like a chart topping single.

Then he fell off.

And it got me thinking.

He looks identical to that Jewsish rapper Matisyahu. That had that reggae rap song that everyone loved. Then you never heard from again.

 

Coincidence????

That’s crazy Trout is mired in the worst slump of his career and is still OPSing 100 points higher than Mathis’s career avg

I will always applaud Mathis statistics entering an argument.  Thank you Blarg.

Young man control in your hand
Slam your fist on the table
And make your demand
Take a stand
Fan a fire for the flame of the youth
Got the freedom to choose
You better make the right move

Marsh is now hitting .252/.340/.413. Remember when he was crushing it?

I think you're quoting the song. Because as I read it I started grooving.

But then I never knew the lyrics to that song, so I don't know.

753 OPS is nothing to sneeze at.

Through May 9: .317/.413/.587, 167 wRC+

May 10-now: .186/.265/.235, 36 wRC+

His .753 OPS is solid, but entirely because he had a good first 5 weeks. Similar to last year. I'm not sure why this happens to Marsh, but two years in a row in which he was great for the first five weeks, then terrible after. Hopefully he can adjust and do better this year.

Didn't they make that song "Banned in the UAE"?

Beat me to it. 

Trout had an amazing first month this year but a brutal next one. 

His overall numbers are still very respectable. But it's a jecklyl and Hyde story

And so were clear here, I'm not shitting on Marsh. And the continued discussion of him the baseball player is fun.

But mainly here I wanted to point out the other night, while I was drunk, that he looks like Matisyahu.

[notherhalo]

I remember when someone posted how Lackey looks like the Tears for Fears guy

 

 

[notherhalo]

I also always saw these two as similar

dunno why

I’d like to see Marsh do well but I’d like Moniak and Adell have a similar value to Marsh, and for O’Hoppe to be the best of the four.

He's doing very well.  On pace for a near 4 WAR.
