Blummer and Verlander seem to love talking about it and pairing it up with exit velocity. And baseball science does indicate ideal launch angles...
Agree that Judge has totally fallen off the face of the earth this year, and even last year. Dude is searching. His launch angle is down almost 6%.
You didn't take a sample. You took the 3 outliers over an entire career. That's hypocrisy at it's absolute best. lol. You have got to do better,...
I've always said everyone connects once or twice. The outliers are fun. But it's the analytics that matter. And he's bottom 1/3 of the entire...
And you still didn't post his HR distances, rank, or average distance because it's embarrassingly below average. It's simple math. He's down to...
I posted that I understand why you would want to think that. But it's wrong. And of note, how long were Carlos last three HR, please tell me, I am...
You're saying the Yankees weren't a dynasty then? They weren't the best team? How many championships did they need to prove it to you. 4 out of 5...
Agree. They weren't best team going in based on the regular season. But I don't care because that's not part of my definition of best team. It's...
The Diamondbacks won the world series by winning 4 games and the playoffs. I mean why do you think the infield was playing in on that play. They...
Which side are you on? That the playoffs are a crapshoot. Or that the best team wins. You posts seem unclear now. My position is very clear. The...
Think there is a good chance he wins it with just a small campaign by the Astros. Send an infographic please. But the Astros do have to do...
Would agree that the Vegas odds are more reflective of current trends in playoff baseball than the pyth, since the pyth is more about building a...
Make your statistical cases in addition to those I noted for how a team just got hot and won it and I'm sure folks will chime in. I put my...
It's only in the bag if we are the best team. but that's not clear. We'll find out in October. But I do believe the best team will win it. The...
Let's look at that though. Since 1995, as the article denotes, what seasons in the last 22 years would you really consider a crapshoot? Maybe two....
You proved my point with the Mariners. In the first 15 games the only guy they beat that was any good was Sale and Giolito. And Sale sucks this...
Are you calling his home run a fluke play? He earned that. The Astros earned the series over seven games. They were the best team.
Don't believe one play determines anyone's fate over a seven game series. It's a team sport and always has been. The reason the post season is so...
Don't agree, seven games in a world series head to head is the best format for determining the champion and the best team. and MLB agrees.
The best team always wins. Baseball is a head to head competition once you get to the playoffs. All your chess pieces are in play.
