Baseball has become pussified by analytics its sad to watch.Well deserved for Dodgers tho.
I don’t even see Justin Turner our there celebrating. What the fook happened?
Covid happened apparently which is odd because weren't they in a bubble for the last two rounds of the playoffs?After you posted this, it was announced that they pulled Turner due to a positive Covid test.
I have so many questions about how a player gets pulled in the middle of a game, in a bubble, due to a positive test. I’m not expecting anyone to have answers right now, but still so many questions.
Snell was dealing. Really bad decision.
The hitters Snell was due to face were 0-6 against him tonight. Screw analytics, let the man pitch when he’s rolling.
29 years ago tonight Jack Morris went 10 innings to win game 7 1-0. Today he’d have been pulled two times through the lineup. The hitters Snell was due to face were 0-6 against him tonight. Screw analytics, let the man pitch when he’s rolling.
Baseball has become pussified by analytics its sad to watch.
That was quite literally the opposite of what the analytics would've had Cash do.
Again, the analytics say let him pitch there. Cash did screw the analytics, and screwed the Rays.
Hahaha no it wasn'tThe analytics are against(Snell especially) going the 3rd time through the order and pitching beyond 5-6 innings.That was the exact definition of a analytics move(as repeated by every single talking head since last night happened).Its the Rays organizational philosophy to trust analytics and pull their starters early. Leaving Snell in would be going with the EYE test and feeling out the current game.Cash went with the analytics.
Yeah you quite literally have the definition of analytics backwards.
You might want to check Mookie Betts's splits and then get back to me on pulling the lefty Blake Snell (who Betts was 0-4 against in the series up to that point) to put in a righty and how that was the move the analytics would suggest.Because it's quite literally the opposite of what the analytics would suggest.
Again, you are still wrong on what analytics in baseball are. The analytics the Rays(and other teams are using) are all based around not letting starters pitch deeper into games and face lineups a 3rd time through the order. You are QUITE LITERALLY the only person arguing this wasn't a analytics decision.https://twitter.com/DPLennon/status/1321305548143398917https://twitter.com/DarrenWHaynes/status/1321300130579046401https://twitter.com/qualityatbats/status/1321280642483511296https://twitter.com/BrentASJax/status/1321322392732471298https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/1321275964714868738https://twitter.com/JonHeyman/status/1321331393272709120https://twitter.com/AROD/status/1321283976246558724https://twitter.com/AROD/status/1321277104906850305https://twitter.com/TheBigHurt_35/status/1321277985949806593I can definitely keep going. I am here to quite literally educate you.
Please, keep going. Just to confirm, you're going on record and saying the analytics say the Rays should have pulled their lefty pitcher for a righty pitcher to face Mookie Betts?
Correct, everyone in America is saying it.But yeah you the guy who says he doesnt watch baseball until the playoffs knows analytics compared to Hall of Famers and guys whose actual profession requires them to follow the sport and report on it.But yeah, Kevin Keirmeier who is on the Rays saying it was a numbers decision. He also knows less than you.
Got it. You've gone on record as saying bringing in a righty to replace a (dealing) lefty was the correct move by analytics. Makes a lot of sense, given that Betts hit .333 and had an OPS of 1.107 against righties and hit .208 and an had an OPS of 0.551 against lefties this year. Yup, the analytics make it clear you want the righty in the game there!Hysterical. I hope you don't actually, literally, teach math, statistics, or analytics.
You are both right. Analytics says that Snell should have stayed in to pitch to Betts in that specific situation. But the reason he was pulled overall was because that's what the analytics are saying about going through a third time.Analytics don't give you a yes and no, black and white answer to every situation. It's just data that you use to make decisions. And what national "baseball reporters" are saying are just sound bites that perform well in our "hot take" culture.
Got it. You still are too fu cking dumb to read.I have gone on record stating that this was an analytical decision based on the Rays computer analytics that don't let their pitchers(especially Snell) pitch a 3rd time through the order and beyond 5-6 innings. I have also gone on the record to state that EVERYONE is saying this. Not just me, again you keep ignoring that.Lastly, I am going on the record to state you are literally a fuc king moron. Hysterical. I hope you dont actually, literally, reproduce.
