From my understanding you have to look up the pitcher... https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/split.fcgi?id=valdefr01&year=2023&t=p Scroll to "By Catcher"
The difference in ops between maldy and Diaz is equivalent to that between Mike trout for his career and Kevin Bass.
Someone explain to me why Diaz is sitting today after sitting 2 of the last 3 games, and when Maldy has caught day games after night games? Does it rhyme with Fusty?
Like even Cheatin' Carlos Beltran accepted a smaller role once everyone realized his skills were diminished... granted, being the highest paid player on that 2017 team helps.
He's lashing out on social media again. What a fat baby. Threw a hissy fit when the FO were chasing Contreras and Murphy..said he would not accept a backup role....once Contreras and Murphy were signed...he deleted the tweets. Maldy is about himself getting playing time over the success of the team. He is the face of this disappointing season,
Maldy was feeling under-the-weather and Dusty needed the doctor's expert opinion just so they wouldn't rule him out and skip a start. Yordan can sneeze and Dusty is ruling him out for an entire series but Dusty will fight tooth and nail to get his precious playing time. No worry about getting the rest of the team infected with whatever he had.
And if Dana manages to trade Maldy away, we all know that Dusty will immediately put his replacements in the dog house just like what happened post-Straw and post-Siri...
That's why Brown should go out and get Contreras. He can only put one of Contreras or Diaz in the doghouse at a time.
He posted a Instagram story calling out his "haters". It was only up for 24 hrs and is gone now. https://www.instagram.com/machetemaldonado/?hl=en He definitely had a Twitter account but he since deleted it. Possibly when he deleted his tweets back then.
If you were a GM, would you trade for Maldy?? Sadly i do not blame Maldy. The manager decides who to play.
If I were a GM, Maldy would have been DFA awhile ago. I don't blame Maldy for playing when Dusty pencils him in, but I do when he whines like a fan in social media when his starting status gets threaten.
