  1. Walks are up to 3.63 per game so far which would be the highest rate since 2000. I am not sure whether walks are typically up early in the season, but walks also went way up after they started using it in AAA. Of course, there could could be other factors which cause the increase, but it is plausible that ABS would be the reason.
  2. That's a great attitude which I used to share. I find it more difficult to do now since I have too many competing activities.
  3. Sac bunts, in the AL, dropped steadily from .45 per game in 1978 to .08 in 2024. It was .10 in 2025 and this year it's back up to .13 which is close to what it was in 2016 (.14). I am pretty sure it will never come close to what it was in the 70s, but perhaps they have recognized that they overdid the non-bunting just a little bit.
  4. The CDC came up to Boston a few years ago to train us on some new software for data on diseases. As an example, they asked us to search for the hantavirus. So, a lot of us typed in Hunter virus and couldn't get any results...
  5. Probably by both definitions of the word.
  6. I think that is what's happening and I believe Tucker Carlson is doing the same thing.
  7. And they never have to worry about Deuce offending women.
  8. Does quitting two days after she qualified for her pension qualify as a "right reason"? I am glad she is pushing the Epstein thing, but I do not trust her intentions.
  9. If he thinks he is 24,then way too much.
  10. They'll all get hurt.
  11. Is Charlie Morton available too?
  12. I love it so much when billionaires tell poor people how they should feel about money.
  13. Yes, every case is different and it's impossible for us to make a timeline. I am just always pessimistic about pitching injuries. If something can go wrong, it will.
  14. A pitcher trying to bulldog his way back from an elbow injury asking for big trouble. Curt Schilling? Maybe, Skubal can put ketchup on his sock when he gets back. 😀
  15. Break it down any more than two outs with RISP and the sample size gets really small. Thirty years of baseball social media have shown me that fans almost always feel like their team doesn't hit in the clutch. I think it's because hitters fail more often than not in any situation, and fans remember the high leverage failures more vividly.
  16. The Tigers are batting .318 with an .889 OPS with two outs and runners in scoring position.
  17. Apparently, Ricky Vanasco does not understand how pitching chaos works.
  18. Just high leverage situations?
  19. My post was not in anyway a criticism of how Harris and Hinch manage the roster. I am 100% sure that Harris and Hinch are not happy that all the injuries are forcing chaos.
  20. That's kind of where I am by default. I liked it better when Skubal was healthy though!
  21. Right, there was/is no choice. That doesn't mean it's going to work as well this time. The fact that all those guys are hurt is why it's less likely won't work this time.
  22. Might be the best time for the Tigers to make an offer!
