Boyfriend's replacement is a.) much worse at getting on base, b.) slow as poo poo, c.) obsessed with attempting steals anyway, and d.) hitting leadoff. Good gravy. To go from one of the league's OBP machines and premier base stealers to that at the top of the lineup is brutal. Edit: Boyfriend finishes their career with a .367 OBP and 131 steals an an 85% stolen base percentage. Hurts. alpha_destroy fucked around with this message at 20:17 on Sep 18, 2020 |

That Idol board is hilarious because Axel just refuses to move. The battle over York or Polkadot for tenth place is gonna be a dogfight though.

Axel Trololol being the most idolized player seems really weird to me. PolkaDot Patterson seems like a much better pitcher to pick if you're just going to park and not switch around. If you're trying to hamper the Crabs by idolizing their best pitcher... I mean, I guess, he's got a lot of stars and his ERA is pretty great, I guess that makes sense. But Finn James and Brock Forbes can pick up the slack and it doesn't seem like a very effective strategy.

Yeah Patterson leads the league in strikeouts this year and Trololol isn't even top-10. The same was true in season 6. https://blaseball-reference.com/leaders

But Finn James and Brock Forbes can pick up the slack and it doesn't seem like a very effective strategy. Axel Trololol is, or at least has been, according to the algorithms that make such decisions, the Best Player in Blaseball. It's verified by the fact that he's the one that has been getting stolen after the initial steal of Jessica Telephone (who was then swapped back to the Pies in Feedback.) So it makes sense to stan Axel. Also, he's a Crab, and their fanbase is large enough that they probably feel like they can just do whatever they want and if he gets shelled, he gets shelled. Or it's people just setting and forgetting. I mean, I haven't switched from Jaylen Hotdogfingers. It's whatever.

Axel is the worst 6 star pitcher of all time.
|
# ? Sep 18, 2020 20:51 |

For six stars, Axel underperforms that rating pretty consistently.

PolkaDot Patterson has 0 walks in all of Season 7?!?

PolkaDot has 10 walks in their entire career

Yeah I don't understand how Trololol is actually calculated as the "best player" but he's never seemed that way for sure.

The idol goal was all set right as the hour turned, but at the last second PolkaDot made a jump up to #8 and knocked Tacos pitcher Wyatt down to 11 So the Tacos are going to have 4 shelled pitchers and 1 really good pitcher? Maybe?? edit: still chaotically shuffling now

the last thing the peanut did was complain of our unity and dismiss the power of "witholding our labor" i want to believe the squid is anticapitalist

In the 4 minutes since you posted that, York Silk has already risen to 2nd overall the best un-shelled pitcher in the league right now is I think Elvis Figueroa of the Pies?
