Well said, Rock.

I realize it's not that likely that Luc keeps up this pace all season long, but nearing the halfway mark here... this kind of offense from a catcher has to have him in any legitimate MVP discussion at this point.

 

If you add certain pitch framing metrics to Lucroy's fWAR (since Fangraphs WAR does not take into account pitch-framing yet in catcher defense, so far as I'm aware), Lucroy might actually be ahead of Tulowitzki at this point. :indifferent :indifferent :indifferent StatCorner pitch-framing leaderboard has Lucroy leading the majors with +14.6 RAA in 2014, and entering tonight he was -1.5 fWAR behind Tulowitzki. (Not sure if those two stats are directly translatable though)

 

Crazy season.

Dear K-Rod: I have stayed up to watch the end of this game. If you would please refrain from making this a nerve wracking experience before me going to bed I would appreciate it.

I'm watching both the Brewers and the Virginia/TCU CWS game, which is in the bottom of the 14th. I'm a Virginia alum, so with that game and this bottom of the 9th, I have no finger nails left.
