  1. Sure. It's been like a week. I'm not going to get too excited yet, given the previous 450 major league ABs and his mediocre minor league numbers since he was drafted.
  2. He did, but not THIS slowly. His OPS was over .700 by late April last year. It's at .450 right now. Ugh.
  3. Yep. They're succeeding on 69% of their stolen base attempts--and only 63% for non-Rengifo players. League average is 77%. Running like crazy when you're not actually very successful at it ultimately ends up costing you runs.
  4. I agree, though I will say in a case like this, the new rule is almost laughable, given that the ball beat Thaiss to the plate by about 30 feet. Ha ha.
  5. I like being aggressive on the bases, but I think the Angels have been taking it to an extreme this year in terms of sending runners AND on stolen base attempts.
  6. “I was pulling off the ball, trying to hit homers,” Schanuel said this weekend. “A giraffe is not going to eat meat."
  7. Good: Neto in his last 11 games: .350/.350/.625 (though, hey, dude, it's ok to take a walk!) Schanuel in his last 18 games: .328/.377/.438 EDIT: Forgot about Rengifo: .413/.481/.609 in his last 14 games. Bad: Ward in his last 15 games: .236/.295/.364 O'Hoppe in his last 16 games: .182/.211/.291 Adell in his last 6 games: .130/.167/.348 Drury: 2 for his last 27 Thaiss: 2 for his last 15
  8. Yep. Again, I'm completely off of the "Washington is great!" bandwagon. At this point, he's just a kooky old dude.
  9. Haven't seen the video, but did see him on the stretcher. Feel awful for him. This organization is just so unlucky.
  10. The A's beat the Marlins 20-4 today: https://www.mlb.com/gameday/marlins-vs-athletics/2024/05/04/745666/final/box
  11. Not sure where ESPN is getting their info, but their location on those pitches doesn't look anything like MLB.com's:
  12. The lesser Naylor brother just hit a grand slam against Detmers. Ugh. Reid just hasn't looked entirely comfortable out there today.
