zoux posted:The SB leader last year had 41. I have to think this is because of the pitch clock making it harder to hold guys on rather than the couple of inches in distance from the increased base size The two disengagements rule is a major factor as well I would think

Alfred P. Pseudonym posted:I wonder what the highest SB/times reached rate is probably a dave roberts type who's not an every day starter but is used as a pinch runner a lot to steal a base in a close game e: since he was the first name that came to mind: adding walks + hits but subtracting triples and dingers he came out to 25.5% e2: Rickey Henderson is at 28.9% which is absurd considering how much he got on base, jesus christ IcePhoenix fucked around with this message at 18:13 on Sep 1, 2023 |

Eric the Mauve posted:I was watching the '82 NLCS on youtube a couple days ago and a similarly funny play happened, Willie McGee hit a low liner and Dale Murphy dove for it, missed, and it went past him all the way to the center field wall. By the time the right fielder ambled his way over to the ball McGee (who was blazing fast) was already at third--but he inexplicably stopped, even though the coach was waving him on home for the inside the parker. He could have rounded home and gotten back to first standing up by the time the ball got back to the infield. the alltimer weird triple is still Ben Revere https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC9yrqxB1KQ Nearly 40 year old Jim Thome will also always be a classic because of weird field geometry https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cts-aLwYGVI IcePhoenix fucked around with this message at 18:06 on Sep 6, 2023 |

LongTimeFirstTime posted:If the Astros are out of it, I'll usually root for a team that hasn't ever won the WS over a team that has won before. Tho bias can intercede a bit with my rooting order: My pitch as a Twins fan for people to join the bandwagon is that we have all four major sports here and the last championship any of them have won was in 1991. Of all the other markets in that list I think Baltimore is the next farthest back with the Ravens in 2013, but I wouldn't begrudge anyone rooting for them, and especially not Seattle.

LongTimeFirstTime posted:Ah, okay. So just your recent championship for the city rule kicking in, got it. Just wanted to make sure I hadn't missed some sort of egregious Toronto / Minneapolis moment on the field or something. I feel like you're implying that there should be one with that wink but no I can't remember any Minnesota/Toronto beef. Seattle and Baltimore are more getting passes for their baseball franchises specifically just being down bad for basically forever than because their recent titles are a decade ago. Toronto has at least had a fair amount of ups.

bawfuls posted:are you sure? If a team trades for him this winter and takes him to the postseason a half dozen times over the remainder of his career, manages to win a title, you don't think he decides that's his preference?

Bregor posted:Is it Royce? He hasn't played enough to qualify for leaderboards, though his splits are pretty similar to this player. Here is a hint: Twins fans hate him because of how badly he's underachieved his contract the last few years while still getting consistent playing time but now many of them are secretly hoping we pick up his team option for next year e: a second hint because I thought of it and wish I had made it the initial one: Trevor Bauer probably hates/fears this player IcePhoenix fucked around with this message at 20:00 on Sep 15, 2023 |
