He could look like Adolf Hitler for all I give AF if he's going to give me basically a .300/.400/.600 slash line after taking probably $100M, if not more, less than his market value to stay with my team that same off-season. I mean my lord...anytime we get one of those "friendly deals" they turn out to be a bum like Singleton or half the player we thought he would be in Bregman. Altuve has been the only "team friendly deal" in the eyes of the public that has worked in our favor honestly. Could probably make an argument for Yuli as well to a lesser extent.
OPS, before the game today: Tucker: .782 Brantley: .780 Bregman: .772 One of these people gets b****ed at more than the others.
Vultured a win with that lineup, a pair of sac flies, and a near bullpen meltdown caused by our loogy. I’ll take it.
Looking at the scoreboard, and I'm liking that 4-1 Rangers lead over LA. With a day off and then the last 9-game road trip, but it's against three sub-.500 teams, I like their odds to stay in first place for a while.
Another underrated issue: Brantley's heavy splits have not gone away. I don't have the exact numbers but I checked earlier this week and against LHP he is batting a good 150 points or so lower.
