>>157396550Look in the mirror
>The Red Sox tonight had all 9 starting batters record at least 1 RBI and strike out 0 times. It's the first time any team has done so since 1949, also by the Red Sox.
>Nelson suggested Karros and other former Dodgers should sit with Tucker and give him a talk but EK pretty much said he's beyond salvaging

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Tonight was the worst night of all time.

Os
>>157396533The Phillies are gonna just barely squeak into the playoffs and then get bounced by a real team kek. Maybe our starting pitching will allow us to win one or two NLDS games but any notion of a league championship or WS run is a pipe dream. The bullpen looked especially atrocious tonight, really just a sign of things to come.

>>157396559Season’s over. Trade and fire everyone. Sell the team.
Why on God's name did Sux pitch to PCA with an open base on extras? ohta I would get IBB'd every time.This shit is just like 2022 when pitchers would keep throwing middle-middle meatballs to Judge when he was chasing 62 and also refused to walk him.
Worst embarrassment ever.
>>157396554Why would i be bothered by this loss, do you know where this team has been? Im just glad it ended early and the bullpen didn't get even more worn out.
Bobby Jenks died for this
>>157396602Because the MLB is scripted.
>>157396602The irony of that is the Cubs chose to walk Murakami>>157396608BECAUSE YOU DON'T LET PCA BEAT YOUJUST FUCKING WALK HIMTHE CUBS WERE SMART ENOUGH TO WALK MUNE. WHY WASN'T VENEBLE?!?!?!
>Cubs 38th comeback win for the seasondamn lads

>>157396612>incoherent sobbing
>Ohtani stat pads off one of the worst teams in baseball>PCA not only matches that against a divisional leader team, but gets a walk off home runAnd there are people delusional enough to think PCA won't get the MVP.
>>157396519iirc most projections were for him to get a 10 year deal for $400m so it could be worse, but giving him $60m a year is still really stinky
I swear i dont understand my fellow white sox fans sometimes. Like there hasn't been 459049 bad losses over the last 4 years. How have you not been able to shake these off the moment the game ends yet? Stunk they lost but whatever. On to tomorrow.
>>157396616cubback!
>>157396573The Phillies are gonna make WC3, face the Dodgers in the wild card, beat them in three games, then go quietly in the division series, to a limping Braves team or something. The world series will be Brewers vs. Rays, two of the smallest market, smallest payroll teams in baseball, solidifying the MLBPA argument in the upcoming bargaining this offseason, thus saving Baseball once and for all.>implying any other NL team could knock the Dodgers out of the NL pennant chase>implying any AL team could beat the Dodgers in a Bo7

>>157396536pretty sure he suggested he fake an injury so he can spend some time working on his fundamentals lel
D-Backs side plot is getting weird.
I thought this team was finally in place where we would be past all this pain. It's been far too long and far too much. Maybe finally we would get a light at the end of the tunnel and be free from the anguish.I was so wrong.I'm going to cry myself to sleep now. Sadness. So much sadness.

>>157396663erm...
>>157396582Karros had a pretty strong prime.
>>157396672If you recognize that it’s been 10 years, are you any better off?
>>157396635Ain’t no way the Phillies are beating the Dodgers in three games. And you’re absolutely right that this will be the year that Braves defeat the bye week curse. The Dodgers are going to suddenly catch fire in late September for no reason and torch everyone in the NL and win their third straight WS in 7 games. >Rays and Brewers WS>Manfred’s 9/11I can’t see the MLBPA winning this winter even if the playoffs culminate in two smaller market teams facing off. All the players would need to do would be point to the Dodgers’ recent success.Also, what’s a Bo7?
Ohtani is gonna start pitching in September and easily win the NL MVP
>>157396642I hope you lose enough games to relinquish the top spot to the gardsyou can have wildcard, for entertainment purposes
>>157396690>>157396672Have the White Sox really been that bad for multiple decades? Are there any other teams that's had it that bad in the same time frame?
>>157396698I think the royals have been worse
>>157396644seeing your oc be posted by others is one of the greater joys on 4ch
Am I the only one who thinks 30/30 is a useless milestone?
The salary cap will stop the dodgers from inflating market value for shit players
>>157396697White Sox fans would be over the moon with a playoff appearance even if it's a wild card spot given the expectation for the season coming in was to avoid losing 100+ games for the 4th year in the rowAll the angst coming from tonight is because they let PCA hit a walkoff home run for no reason
>>157396623He won’t. The normie votes for Ohtani will simply be overwhelming.
>>157396623cubbie nagatoro bullying doyersenpais
>>157396702At least the Royals won a World Series more recently than the White Sox. 2015 wasn't a long time ago.
>>157396702Didn't they literally win a world series?
>>157396652Based Wil leaving Smith in to see if he could handle the pressure for the postseason push. Dont get me wrong i want to see the Sox sweep the Cubs every year, but this was a good test to see what he does against elite hitters in a pressure situation. And it ended without having to burn out the bullpen even more. For the first time in years the Sox have more to play for then just beating the cubs.
the phillies had a better offense last season, their pitching did its job against the dodgers, and the lineup still came up short. i don't see it going a different way if they meet in the playoffs again.
>UH YEA LET ME GET A #3>EXTRA HYDROGOLIZED CANOLA OIL PLEASE AND PRAISE GAWD
The Rockies are just that fucking bad. Get over it.
>>157396636ARRAEZ CHICKEN
>>157396715>Based Wil leaving Smith in to see if he could handle the pressure for the postseason push.Why couldn't he have let him face the next guy instead? Any hit wins it no matter what, there was no point in pitching to PCA no matter how you slice it
>>157396691he was bad defensively and slow on the bases. he was a glorified dh early on. the team wasn't spending money back then and they gave him a generous contract extension when they had 2-time minor league player of the year Paul Konerko waiting in the wings. I still feel bitter thinking back on those years.
>>1573967132005 was so long ago they swept the Astros in the WS
>>157396695If he manages to get to 100 IP with an ERA under 2.0? Yep, it's his.At least Cubsis will be able to say PCA was the reason for Ohtani's first not -unanimous MVP kek
>>157396695>>157396709O-o-o-of course
>>157396716Don’t worry, the bags will go cold when we actually need them then light it up the next May when it doesn’t matter. Quid pro quo
>>157396698I was going to say the Mets but they had a World Series appearance which is a lot more than the White Sox unless you go back years ago when people weren't even born yet
>>157396709Normalfags love underdogs and hate repeaters, unless they really earn it and there's no competition. Pete Crow will have to fall off a cliff statistically for Ohtani to get the MVP this year.
>>157396726>elite hitters in a pressure situationThat is PCA. Suzuki aint that. Test the guy and see what he does. Dont lose sight that the only reason the Sox even had the lead was Will doing the Grichuk -> Tendies swap at the right time.
>>157396742Yeah good old “voter fatigue”
>>157396739My Mets have won a pennant in every decade since their inception, except for the 90s. Could be much worse.
>>157396655Then cubs, they ain’t gonna win no more
>>157396737Rational reague mvp
>>157396746Yup.The only thing people love more than a champion, is to see their fall from grace.
>>157396745He's a young manager. Just like the young players, I have faith that he'll learn from his mistakes over time. He needs to learn to snatch wins when they're right in front of him. Don't keep your closer on the bench because you think you'll need him tomorrow.
>>157396736Th-th-th-that's right, that's right
>THREE THIGHS, TWO THIGHS, SIDE OF EXTRA THIGH>MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T COME FROM THE BAG OUR SYSCO DRIVER LEFT IN FRONT OF THE WALKIN FOR SOME REASON

why is this retard seething about chicken?
>>157396734Well that World Series was in my opinion a "passing the torch" moment for the next biggest scandal in baseball.>White Sox won 1917, lost 1919, accused of gambling>Astros won 2017, lost 2019, accused of sign stealingIt's like history repeated itself.
we /ties/ now
>>157396768Good thing we have a challenge system to correct stuff like this.
>>157396732i understand where you're coming from, but they traded konerko in 1998. karros had 3 consecutive 30 HR seasons from 95-97 and was having a good year in 1998, too. the NL didn't have the DH and konerko didn't hit well in a small sample when they called him. karros had 2 more 30 HR seasons in 99 and 2000.and they traded konerko to the reds who turned around and traded him to the sox. obviously konerko had a much better career than karros and hit well for a long time, but that happens sometimes. it doesn't change that karros was a good major league hitter.
>>157396772 Manfred is a big enough faggot to make this a thing someday.

Kyle Tucker wasn't even part of the cheating Astros World Series squad. He debuted in 2018.

>>157396776I'm not suggesting Karros wasn't useful, but I had very strong feelings about how the team should have allocated resources. I'm still pissed off about trading away Pedro Martinez ffs and yeah, the Konerko trade was hideous. Lost in all this is just how much damage Tommy did to the team with his ego and by having way too much influence over personnel decisions. all in the past as they say and I wouldn't bring it up if I didn't find EK weighing in on everything a source of regular irritation.

I've still yet to hear one good explanation why Will Veneble chose to pitch to PCA instead of IBBing him with an open base that could set up a force or even DP.Was he betting on this game. Is this Black Sox 2.0?

For you guys not following this situationThe Dodgers negotiated an unfair TV contract deal, then their owner got his insurance and annuity companies to give loans to him so he could afford massive spending. He did things like buy Chelsea, the Lakers and spend massively on the Dodgers by doing illegal loans and arms length transactions that aren’t allowed with insurance rulesHe has to sell EVERYTHING he can to cover the loans or he could face criminal prosecution. There will be a liquidation, selling the Lakers and his stake in Chelsea will not be enoughThe Dodgers “dynasty” is built on financial cheating, enabled by a 1 of 1 TV Deal they got through a loophole in the McCourt Bankruptcy and improper transactions with life insurance and annuity companies Guggenheim ownsWe do not need a salary capMark walter WILL have to sell the Dodgers and once the TV rights situation is fixed they will never be able to spend like this againThe Dodgers rings mean even less than the Astros

>>157399015u jelly?
>>157398784I wouldn't bet against it because the AL is so bad and they could catch a cold team in the World Series.
>>157398989He was probably punting the game. The bullpen is running on fumes. He didn't want to go deep into extras.
>>157399057White Sox fans will refuse to accept this answer
Mark Walter has to take roughly $20 billion of loans off his insurers by December 31.There are 4 ways to do that.1. Sell the loans: nobody buys paper that is under a grand jury subpoena.2. Grow the balance sheet: the company would have to be 4 times bigger in 2 quarters.3. Reinsure a block: that hands over the good assets and leaves the loans, so the ratio goes UP.4. Sell things and repay in cash.The Lakers covered about a third.THE LAKERS COVERED A THIRD OF WHAT HE NEEDS. MARK WALTER STILL HAS TO UNLOAD THE DODGERS

Where is Ketel Marte?
>>157399525For you would very much like to speak with him?
>>157399494No, I totally agree. I saw a bit of the game yesterday and on both of his ABs that I watched he absolutely smoked the ball, but the infielder ended up making a terrific play. It’s not that he’s unable to make contact, he’s not even making weak contact, it’s just bad luck over a small sample size. Hopefully he can lift the ball over the infield eventually.
Am I the only one who thinks no-showing to a baseball game should be a CBA violation and the player should be suspended? Same way I feel about the NFL nogs who do 'holdouts" when they don't like their contract. Shit only ever goes one way, labor violates terms of contracts and ownergods get hosed. If you don't show up to work and fulfill your contract you should get kicked out of the union. Only the bullshit sports "unions" work like this. Marte should be auto-suspended the rest of the year without pay and if he doesn't show up again next season he should be banned for life. Yes, I love licking owners boots, I'm still correct.
Where’s Ketel?

After sleeping on it, I don't care that they pitched to PCA. The game was over at that point, and trying to stretch it further would have drained the bullpen even more coming into two bullpen days. The fact that it was a PCA homer was salt on the wound, but doesn't actually matter. The way they managed the 9th pisses me off. How is your best reliever not available to pitch with a 1-run lead in the 9th? Take the win when you can get it. There could be zero high-leverage innings for the rest of the series. Watch Grant Taylor pitch the 7th and 8th innings of a blowout tonight.

Friendly reminder that WAR is literally fake, they just make up numbers to tell the narrative they want
>>157400023your xwFAGGOT+ is through the roof!
>>157400066They are way too heavy on defense, which is a game that's difficult to measure. The formulas are made up by people who never played the game. Teams aren't even using defensive stats. That's what scouts are for.
>>157400105>way too heavy on defenseis that how PCGay's WAR is so far ahead of Shogay's even though their basic offensive metrics are so similar?
>>157400066elite 2b defense vs good of defense
>>157400066remember when WARfags argued for Trout MVP over the first batting triple crown in 45 years?
>>157400105scouts be like>holy shit did you see that kid’s exit velocity, launch angle and hard hit %? he’s going to be a superstar!*procedes to hit .220, strike out 180 times per season, and somehow muster a >.750 OPS whilst being a fat slob with no defensive skills*
>>157400123And baserunning
>>157400142Makes sense, Ohtranny's baserunning this year has been disastrous
>>157400123PCA plays defense every day, I don’t need a stat to tell me that’s more valuable than someone who doesn’t play defense. Now The Gambler is a pitcher, which evens things up, but he hasn’t pitched in a while.
>>157400123PCA had 2+ WAR by the start of his hot streak, even though:>his OPS was under .600>he lead and still leads CF in errors>but muh jump factorHe's fast and gets good jumps. That's it. His arm and glove skills are average at best. He can get to balls that others can't, sure, but the math isn't mathing when he only catches about 2.6 balls per game (not a low number, but just not game changing)
how much war has pca accrued by sucking duck and eating shit?
>>157400138That was just people playing devils advocate though. I think we all knew Miggy had it in the bag, winning the triple crown is like having a free MVP pass. Same with averaging a triple double in basketball, all the other stats can be thrown out the window, as long as you reach that benchmark you should be rewarded for it.
>>157400141>talking about defense>proceeds to make a point about offenseHoly retard.
>>157400138Yes I do. I feel like the nerds took a totally legit argument when Felix Hernandez won the Cy Young (“it’s not his fault his record sucks, wins are a team stat”) and took it about a million miles too far to where people focus on fake stats over what people actually do on the field.
>>157400166No I’m saying that scouts favor offense way more than defense, retard. And not even offense so much as simply having the potential to hit home runs.
>>157400167Sports nerds are getting to a point where they think if the results on the field don't match the metrics, there's something wrong with the sport the metrics were designed to make sense of.
>>157400197They reached that spot in baseball years ago, getting there with football.
>>157400197I used to do predictive modeling for an insurance company and one model was predicting employee terminations. When my model was wrong, I would wonder what specifically about the person was unique to where my model failed.
>>157399877No it's still completely indefensible. There was a base open. You walk their most dangerous hitter and try to get a force after. There was no reason to not IBB PCA. It's truly a disgrace to the sport.
>>157400208I remember seeing a chart last year that showed NFL expected wins versus actual wins. It had a clear trend line where the teams with high expected wins all had more wins than expected, and the teams with low expected wins all had fewer wins than expected, with a few outliers like the Lions. It was pretty clear that the formula was missing something important, but Lions fans used it to say their team was unlucky.
Which one of these dandy young gentlemen won the AL Cy Young Award in 2010? (the answer may shock you!)
>>157400197I really hope one day all of those stat nerds would take a step back, look at the game, and go “oh my god, this sport, it’s only about hitting home runs and striking people out now, it’s a shadow of its former self, what have I done?” and promptly fuck off.
>>157400233Yea, mlb fans do that with expected BA on baseball savant. Mets fans claimed Bo Bichette was the most unlucky batter in MLB early in the year because of the huge gap between “expected” and actual BA. When in reality he sucks balls this year and just kept firing hits directly at defenders. Hard hit balls directly at defenders has a very low BA.Advanced stats can be useful but they are the domain of the midwit unfortunately. They need to be placed into context with and paired with actual observations and “the eye test.”
>>157400263b-bu-but… how do you back up the actual observations and “the eye test” with numbers?
>>157399611It was only a matter of time before Trump backstabbed MLB for rehabilitating Rose in exchange for keeping ICE away
When the lockout is in effect and the scabs are brought in, will we have replacement level WAR? Wins Above Replacement’s Replacement?
how much fan WAR do you get for calling your team bums in the genny?
The sad reality is that we’ve been pigeonholing the concept of a superstar offensive player.Back in the day, lineups fostered a plethora of roles: there were speedy leadoff men, contact-first hitters, three-true-outcome power hitters, RBI machines, defensive specialists, etc. Nowadays only the three-true-outcome man remains.So now you have rosters comprised of the #197th best three-true-outcome player, the #66th best three-true-outcome player, the #14th best three-true-outcome player (all-star and MVP vote getter), the #241st best three-true-outcome player… many of those guys would’ve been cut eons ago if they played a couple decades prior.It’s just gotten so boring and predictable now, and it makes it even worse knowing that you’re not even watching all the best baseball players in the world.
Move of the Chicago baseball teams to Indiana with the Burrs.
>>157400358There was a youtube video I watched that I can't find now about the fall of the fat MLB player because of analytics and your post reminded me of it. The thesis was defense and baserunning became so much more highly valued. I don't think baseball has gotten as bad as basketball in terms of analytics sucking the fun and uniqueness out of the game, but it's certainly part of it.

I would take a team of 8 Chandler Simpsons+ replacement level pitcher over a team of 8 Kyle Schwarber+ replacement level pitcher. Sure, the Schwarbro team probaby averages 4-6 HRs a game and 6-8 walks, but they won't be able to buy an out defensively and my Chandlers would run buck wild on that team with slap singles and bunts the 3B and SS Schwarbers botch, and anything not hit right at a OF Schwarber is getting down for extra bases. And catcher Schwarber ain't throwing any Chandler basestealers out he hasn't been passable at catcher in decade.Ergo, defense is more valuable than offense.
>>157399097>white anglo owner that actually cares about his team? yeah lets ruin his life and let jews take over his assets
Look the fact is the game was lost when the offense couldn't score in the top of the 10th. They looked pathetic that you just had no choice but to punt the game away. But don't punt it TO FUCKING PCA ONE OF THE LITERAL BEST PLAYERS IN THE NL.

>>1574006031 game or not it's still a huge error which goes against the fundamentals of the sportJust look at the Cubs they knew every time there was a base open especially in the 10th inning you don't give the opposing team's beat hitter anything to hit. They didn't give Murakami anything at all and he just walked all day unable to harm them. Meanwhile Veneble's extremely dumbass decides to not walk PCA and pays the ultimate price. It's so fucking dumb.Not to mention even if you forget about all that, the point is the runner is on 2nd if you walk them you set up the double play and a force at 3 bases. Come the fuck on its baseball 101!

>>157400619I wouldn't have minded pitching outside to PCA. He was pulling everything. Then again, Hagen Smith doesn't have the command to do that. For all we know, that hanging slider was meant to be off the outside corner.

>>157400667Go back to posting your quirky whore faggot
>>157400619>>157400547To be fair the first two pitches were outside, then Smith challenged PCA with a fast ball in the zone which caught PCA looking. Smith probably thought he could do it a 2nd time to increase the chance that PCA would chase a pitch, but that backifred horribly. >>157400618They support the orange flavor anti-christ, it's pretty clear they weren't on Team J man to begin with.
>>157400687Too bad he has no command. That slider would've worked if it didn't miss by a foot.
>>157400684With this reply, you are saying. Yes, I am just an ape? How do you look at yourself in the mirror and feel joy? It's no wonder you are full of so much hatred
