I wholly reject a contrived measurement that ignores a player’s performance in the first 6 innings.

A player hits a three run homer in the third inning to tie the game, and then hits another three run homer in the sixth to tie the game, but strikes out in the eighth down by one run.

Yeah that guy isn’t “clutch.”  We don’t want guys like that.

1 game is what your basing your entire response on? Out of 259 games?

I asked the question beyond pitching wins how many has he provided at the dish?

I didn't remember any and Fletch provided 8 times he did something in the 7th or later that gave us a lead... we were 5-2 in those games... He came through late 2x in the same game in Texas.

I always remember watching him stealing meaningless bases down 10-3...

I've felt that way for the last 8-10 years and nothing has changed.

The “one game” I described was not a real game.  It was explaining why caring only about the 7th inning on makes no sense.  You haven’t even remotely explained why you want to see this big game winning hit only from the 7th inning on.

The Angels should be going for a complete rebuild from the farm system up.   Paying $500 mil for Ohtani would be counterproductive, and also show that Arte is not serious about fielding a contender.

Go Diablos am I right?

I actually was at MetLife Stadium the week after the Sanchez Butt Fumble game to watch one of the worst games in NFL history Jets vs Arizona Cardinals.

Arizona had their 3rd string QB playing who couldn't complete a set of downs.  The Jets attempted 2 field goals that hit the uprights at each end zone and missed them both.  Mark Sanchez was booed off the field and Rex Ryan had to bench him.  I had great seats though front row at 40 yard line overlooking most of the action.

Thanks Fletch!

Game 1 - W - 2022

Game 2 - L - 2022

Game 3 - L - 2022

Game 4 - W - 2023

Game 5 - W - 2023

Game 5 ^ same game 6-12-2023

Game 8 - W - 2023

 

8 times (5-2) record in 324 possible games played (162x2) in 292 actual games in the lineup in 2022 & 2023.

Well that should be pretty eye opening to some.

Other than the Mound. I'm trying to see in reality if his #'s are generated earlier in the game when their is less pressure game on the line situations.

Or, if most have been early/mid game in mostly games we were trailing in where a home run chasing 5-6-7 runs in truth really only meant anything to his stats and not to the team.

Don't get me wrong he's a Generational talent based on what he has done hitting and pitching since Babe Ruth... I guess, I'm attempting to either justify the cost or not?

His ability is Great but is it worth the cost. When you get into a Stat that means more to me the "W" in the stat column. Is it all on him? No, but when the other guys are out of the lineup and you're the sole Super Star left. You need to do your job in pressure situations during the game.

Yeah I just don’t get the value of isolating 7th inning on.  That’s entirely meaningless to me.  Hitting a three run homer in the third inning of a game you win 6-2 is the biggest hit of the game and basically delivered the win.

Discounting that kind of hit because it was in the third inning instead of the 7th simply makes no sense to me.

It might be a bit more exciting for a fan to see a big hit in the eighth versus the fourth, but that doesn’t mean it is more meaningful in delivering the win.

Nice Lou type pull, @Taylor

I'm happy to report that I wasn't caught using doo doo here. 

That said, I've probably used the word dung before.
