This is why relying on retired players who don't review the actual numbers before sharing their opinion, is a stupid idea. Kauffman has been a great hitters park, measured by tons of objective and verifiable ways. Your eye tests mean nothing, even if you wore an MLB uniform.

The hypocrisy. One of the pillars for Guillen’s success in the last Venezuelan Winter League’s championship and Caribbean Series with his team, Tiburones de La Guaira, was his reliance on the amazing analytics team they have. Selling out, for the uninformed “fans”, is dishonest.

Paraphrasing Chris Rock, let me clarify something: Max Scherzer is rich, yes, but the guy who writes Max's checks is wealthy. Wealthy is something that few of us know, and although it is not inherently bad, it is a condition that alienates many.

It's funny how Shane McClanahan is touted as a legitimate Cy Young award contender but Shohei Ohtani isn't because of his "lack of volume". Shane McClanahan's innings pitched: 161.1 Shohei Ohtani's innings pitched: 153.0 A whopping 8.1 IP difference.

Pitching is unnatural and, at extreme velos, it’s extremely unnatural. As my friend @yosoyrorro said, just because in the past some exceptional guys like Ryan didn’t break, we forget the Fidrychs, Koufaxs and Saberhagens that did. We just probably reached the event horizon.

Never has a starting pitcher K'd 200 or more batters in 135 or less IP in a season; the closest was 2019 Chris Sale with 218 Ks in 147.1 IP. Spencer Strider is at 192 Ks in 125.2 IP at this moment.

I find it a little weird that, according to this, the Betts, Acuñas, Tatis, etc, are less fitted to "save baseball", whatever the hell that means, (I'm sorry for semi-swearing!).

The new first baseman doesn’t drink, smoke, or swear—but damn if L.A. fans don’t love him anyway. How the least surly, most friendly player in the majors just might help make the game America’s favorite pastime once again @FreddieFreeman5

Unless I'm going crazy, Jorge Polanco is a hell of a value as a 6 rounder in 15-teamers and 8th in 12-teamers. What am I missing?

That one is good, but there is another one I think is better: this is the list of players with at least 1,000 runs scored, 1,000 RBI, 1,000 walks, 250 home runs, 400 stolen bases, 500 doubles while batting no less than .290: Barry Bonds. Bob Abreu. That's it.

I'm so pissed off that the Mets were disrespectful with the Phillies last night and had the nerve to break those beautiful, smart, relevant unwritten rules and did not give up as real baseball players should do.

My daughter has lived out of Venezuela for more years than she lived there; she's now 16. After Maduro stole the elections, she cried in despair. She barely remembers our country and yet, it still hurts. I won't forget, and I pray God helps me to forgive as I don't think I can.

Este es el argumento que más se escucha cuando de defender a Rose se trata, el de que supuestamente siempre apostó a que su equipo ganaba y nunca en contra. De una manera ingenua, se supone que esto exime de algo a Rose, sin embargo, hay que partir de algo importante: (cont)

In my first ever article for @PitcherList , I instrumentalize the relationship of the awesome concepts of DHH% and Launch Angle Tighness by @ckurcon and @DolphHauldhagen into a way to rank batters and estimate their potential. I hope you like reading it as I enjoyed writing it!

@THEKID_ @westontitus @FiresideYankees When statements contradict themselves there is always the authority fallacy to lean on. It's highly probable that St. Louis is relying on analitycs for this increase in its usage. Also, change "analitycs" with "information" and see how bad that first tweet of yours looks now.

@EricCross04 Terrible take. Pujols is overrated. Had a good run early in his career, but his overall stats are the result of one of the worst contract signings in baseball history. He should’ve been out of the league years ago

The Yankees probably shouldn’t re-sign Juan Soto. It hamstrings their salary for the next 4-5 years on a roster that could use a bunch of minor pieces instead of one monster piece Unfortunately they literally don’t have a choice.

Mr. Stark, thanks for putting the time and effort to copiously explain your ballot, that’s appreciated. I find it very well balanced but I would like to point that a GM ways of doing roster construction doesn’t seem to be, to me at least, a good decision making principle here.

You are right, English is not my first language and, more times that I'd like to, mess things up when writing or speaking. Lucky for me, there are tons of nice people helping me improve. That doesn't preclude I try to say Jeter was a lousy defender, though (fancy word there!)
