Some Numbers posted:I'm in OKC and went to the OKC Dodgers' AAA game tonight. The Dodgers' starter, Wilmer Font, pitched really well. As a flyball pitcher, it can be tough to make sure those Arial balls don't land for hits. Good for him.

Something I didn't know is that four-homer games are rarer (17) than perfect games (23)..

If the domestic violence allegations about Russell turn out to be true and the Cubs don't immediately get rid of him in response, I will take applications for a new team to root for.

It probably happened just after the deadball era (assuming we're calling that 1800s-1920). Most of the 20s through 40s have homerun rates/game that are less than half of what we have now, and there were also half as many teams so a full slate was only 8 games. I ran some numbers and if we assume 1 homerun/game on average, which meshes with that era, the likelihood of having 8 games with no homeruns is 1 in 2980. Roughly estimating 100 days/season having full schedules means it would be likely to happen in 30 seasons. In contrast, this season we have a HR rate of 2.46/game (!!!), and having 15 games with no homeruns is a 1 in 10^16 chance. So if it happened, it very likely wasn't anytime recently, but who knows. You can't predict baseball, Suzyn. Petanque fucked around with this message at 22:54 on Jun 10, 2017 |

When I hear "Nori Aoki defense" this is all I can think of.

The Big Hurt on Buehrle: "I don't care how great the players were, how big the game was, his goal was to get us out of there in two hours and fifteen minutes."

Inspector_666 posted:N: Marlins are sending Adeiny Hechavarria to the Rays for 2 minor leaguers. Hechavarria will also have a soft spot in my heart because he made the dinger machine go off in the next-to-last at-bat of the Marlins game I went to. Thanks Adeiny.

Was Montero in DC with the team when he got DFA'd? Did he go to the White House?

elentar posted:Tyler Flowers is apparently the best pitch framer in the bigs and it's not particularly close. https://twitter.com/mlbbowman/status/880151575888515072 You could really see the difference last season after the Sox ditched Flowers for Alex Avila and DIoner Navarro. Flowers also outhit both of them last year and I've just looked it up and he's hitting .331 this season??? What a goddamn mistake that was.

STAC Goat posted:You joke but the ejection was him basically just saying 1 word to the ump and he was gone. So Renteria really, really wanted to go home early. If you listen to the audio you can hear him saying "I wasn't arguing balls and strikes!" and he calls the umpire a disgrace but also "loving bullshit" so I dunno
