Yankees beating the shït out of teams with reckless abandon.

You love to see it

Mookie Betts is batting .391, 45 hits, 29 runs scored, 22 walks....these are the type of old school numbers that I like to see (none of that sabermetrics basura)

Plays every day, hustles, is a team leader, doesn't give away at-bats, plays defense...

If Steve Cohen bought the Mets a few years earlier we have Betts and Wheeler and maybe a chip by now

Looking at Vlad Jr's numbers so far ...Bo Bichette also sitting on the Mendoza line

Four AL Central teams above .500.

Vlad is such a conundrum. He clearly has an elite hitting pedigree. But, I saw some number about him about poor launch angles and just insane ground ball rates. I mean you're expecting a lot, but he doesn't have the swing/touch of his dad. I think naturally he has more power than his dad, but he sacrifices hit ability to tap into it. They aren't the Cecil and Prince comps. I think if Vlad Jr. solves his groundball problem he could probably still be a 25/30 hr guy but his doubles should jump up.

I also think some of the metrics say the Blue Jays should tear down and trade while some of their better names can fetch the best prices.

I really wish the Mets one had more color like this.

I wish Tampa Bay never changed their name.

The Devil Rays was a great team name. And the idea that "devil" was keeping fans away has CLEARLY been bullshyt because Tampa is at the bottom of the attendance numbers every year.

In regards to the whole Devil thing in the teams name. I thought making a thread "Do Christian hockey fans in NJ root for the Devils " but I kept that one in the vault.


I never heard of the NJ Devils having attendance problems due to their name and they been around longer than Tampa Rays have.
