Jake monthly OPS


April: .717
May: .924 (this is where we were all excited for him)
June: .632
July: .541
August: .625

So it's been tough sledding since May and he's currently rocking the .691 OPS and .295 OBP

Shay Whitcomb sounds like a name ChatGPT came up with for a fictional narrative about "local boy makes good"
Feels so good, feelin' good again.

Chas is now solidly in Machete territory at .193.

I really feel for him. Dusty wasn't a fan so he didn't get ABs and now Joe has to use him when he's lost out there.

Just saw a video on the Astros IG page where they interview and ask them "who matters the most." All of them said family or significant others but Tucker showed a pic of Michael Brantley, we need him in the coaching staff to get him to stay here! Hehe

Ok. That was almost a disaster by Dubon. But he turned it into a 4U-3 DP so I guess it's all good.

I get there aren't other options but 3 overmatched rookies plus Chas is a lot to overcome.

I mean counting pena we basically have 3 big league regulars in our line up today, 4 is you count Jake… this is basically a march spring training game to Joe…

He went on first movement from the lefty. They just picked at the right time. Happens.

That Yainer bomb gets out of 29/30 stadiums and has an xba of just .280. Seems odd

How is that even possible?
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

I think (key word think) XBA is based on LA, direction hit and EV. The park count is based on where it landed with respect to fences.

The fences are the direction. They know where it landed and have a field map for every field. The question is was it over or not over the fence, not how it got there.

Not just homers, linedrives down the lines should be nearly 1.000 too.

I know it is just a meaningless stat, but it seems some of the advanced metrics that players / coaches look at are based on it, could be wrong though
