Wait...People were that bent out of shape for losing Josh Fields?


2016 was a rough year. And reading away for major league arm for an unknown prospect wasn't helping the team.

Yeah but the way I remember it was kinda like 'Oh damn! Fields was pretty good. Oh well'

Not really a big piece I'd be all up in arms selling off my season tickets for.

Damned sure was. I remember thinking at the end of the 2015 season that our ascend was happening in 2016....we beat the Yankees and took the eventual WS Champs to game 5 in the divisional round in 2015 even after completely squandering a game we absolutely should have won. 2016 was a major let down.

I hope he did sell his season tickets, just before our historic run or ALCS appearances

Yup, but growth and success aren't linear. It's hard to keep that in mind in the moment.

Just saw this for Judge on Facebook. Is there a tool out there to pull Yordan's stats over his last 150 games?

Glad to see Tucker there, heads off any media hysteria about him being pissed (I know, it's stupid, but they would do it)

Thanks. Is there a site that you pulled that from or did it require Mathguy magic?

Pretty sure fangraphs has a tool that you can filter stats by including dates.

Why would any team do anything but intentionally walk Yordan with Yuli behind him?

Seriously...Just every time put him on without throwing the pitches and go after Yuli.

Fangraphs. Split stats you can enter a date range. I put June 1 2021 to today and it came up 152 games. Figured that was close enough.

wonder what happens to the data if his games vs. the woeful Orioles are removed?

Obviously they'd be better, that new big wall in LF is a travesty for him and Stanton

Why does that matter? They play the schedule they have and the Orioles are in their division.

Just like the Rangers are in ours.

Judge is a damn good player. Yes he gets media hyped but he's one of the better hitters in the league.

I do suspect there is something screwy going on with MLB distributing baseballs of certain deadness to certain teams or for certain games on national TV. However, I think that evens itself out in the playoffs. You can't really give dead baseballs to the umpires for one team and not the other.

career OPS for Judge:

vs. Orioles ---> 1.103

vs. Red Sox ----> .807

vs. Rays ----> .787

vs. Astros ----> .728

those are grand canyon-esque deltas

I'm curious -- can you do the same for Yordan?

I suspect something similar. Would be interesting to see though.

Without looking I'm going to say that Yordan's OPS in Boston is eleventy billion.

They have leftover juiced baseballs from Covid 2020 year being mixed in with new dead baseballs from 2022

This is the hypothesis from an astrophysicist on Bleacher Blum podcast
