Oh hey BA is back. The National Darts Championship quarterfinals over?

 

Meh, I no longer care if he is here or not. I like him, but being second fiddle to everything else he has been doing leaves me feeling a bit neglected. Maybe he just needs to leave forever...

Just think. Arcia already has 4x as many homers as last year and sports an OPS of .655.

 

That speaks volumes about how horrid he was last year and even after vast improvement in a problem area...he still sucks. Time to move on from him next year.

I sure do.

Well, to help with the karma... Grandal is crap, he can't call a decent game, his pitch framing is horrible, he couldn't throw out the runners in a three legged race from 1st base to 2nd. I'd be surprised if he makes contact tonight with his latest slump... Arcia blindfolded is a better hitter than Grandal...

 

The bolded part already had an effect.

The HR rates were wonky in 2017 due to the baseballs, more normal in 2018 and then 2019 has seen seme seriously juiced balls. That 2017 and 2019 were good years HR-wise for Arcia probably isn't a coincidence, and does indeed do a lot to prop up his otherwise very lacklustre stats. Even just a couple of those HRs dying at the track makes his numbers noticably worse worse.

I know many don't feel this way, but I absolutely hate the shifts that go on now days. To me it's "junk" baseball. Guess I'm a purist, play it straight up. If you get beat, you get beat.

 

Well, there's never been rules about where you have to stand in fair territory. I don't know how you even regulate that.
