t. what every phillies fan should be saying
>>68791149
Most of us are on board with the team to start tanking, though some people are still hoping for a winning streak for some reason.
>>68791149
At least you didn't get crowned as the new Cleveland this week
I've prepared my newest national league Cy Young rankings for you simps. Don't ask me stupid questions about my formula because it won't ever be made available to you losers.
1. Clayton Kershaw 5.7 WAR
2. Noah Syndergaard 3.8 WAR
3. Stephen Strasburg 3.7 WAR
4. Johnny Cueto 3.2 WAR
5. Jose Fernandez 3.1 WAR
>>68791262
I get tanking but just because they are tanking doesn't mean put your name in the record books for the wrong reasons.I don't want to see them lose 10+ straight multiple times this season but losing maybe 3 of every 5 games ain't bad.This is getting painful to watch.Especially tonight.The one time this team can put up this many runs and the other team, the worst team in baseball record-wise, has to score more and STILL make it a blowout loss
>>68791319
>1. Clayton Kershaw 5.7 WAR
>2. Noah Syndergaard 3.8 WAR
Kershaw is not that much better than Noah you retard
>>68791301
Where's the twins? Oh yeah a more recent eries than the jays or dodgers!
>>68791428
>Kershaw is not that much better than Noah
>>68791438
no.The last time the twins won a WS was 1991.And LA's last championship winning team was the Kings in 2014.Jays won in 1993
>>68791428
>Kershaw is not that much better than Noah
This is what Mets "fans" actually believe
>>68791100
We actually have holes in the pen until O'Day comes back, so we need more cannon fodder innings sponges so we can keep the actually competent ones like Brach and McFarland for clutch spots.
Also trying to let pen arms take a shot at starting but we have needed to use them over the recent games.
>>68791397
What do you suppose the Phillies do, if not tank?
>>68791438
Whoever I got this from left out the Twins to show everyone else has zero championships (although I think MNUFC won a championship too, but who cares, that's below even MLS)

>>68791668
They shouldn't try to lose.Everyone knows they're gonna lose.But really if you're trying to bring young talent up don't put them in an environment where losing is A-OK because they'll lose their winning attitude.All of the phillies farm teams are absolutely DOMINATING the minor leagues right now.The Reading Fightins are the cubs of the Eastern League and the players on the Iron pigs are racking up numbers and padding stats with how good they are.If you take those kids who have been winning for the past 2-3 years and surround them with most of those washed up bums or rejects who are totally fine with getting BTFO because "hey at least that relief pitcher from AAA got a clean inning" that young prospect will lose their willingness to win.
>>68791319
>no Bumgarner

If they don't want their prospects to lose confidence, just don't tank young. Bring up Buchanan and Ruf etc.

Since we are at the all-star break for the minors outside of AAA this is your underrated A-ball pitching prospects report.
>Max Povse (Atlanta A+)
A fucking giant with a crazy good sinker, an already good curveball that keeps improving, and a changeup that's starting to look very good. Basically walks no one (sub 5 BB%), strikes out people at a good clip (~25 K%) and probably has 60%+ GB rate. Made a lot of progress in his mechanics which is always a worry for the huge freaks. Should be moved up to AA soon but may have his innings limited.
Sean Reid-Foley (Toronto A)
20 year-old with a live fastball and a good changeup. Some improvement this year in command and breaking stuff but both still need work. His arm action is fine but if his delivery ever gets off-kilter it could get ugly for him. Could be a #2 or just get blown up the second he reaches the upper minors
>>68791856

Stanton is oversized garbage
>>68792844
ERA: Kershaw 1.57, Syndergaard 1.91
1.91/1.57 = 1.22,
1.22 times better at run prevention, all that really matters, but if you want to go by FIP or some shit he's still 1.08 times better. xFIP 1.09. or let's go with an average of the three 1.13.
Innings Pitched: Kershaw 115, Syndergaard 85
115/85 = 1.35
Kershaw is 1.13 times better over 1.35 times as many innings. better for longer
1.13*1.35 = 1.53
Thus Kershaw is roughly 1.5 times more valuable
5.7/3.8 = 1.5

The Dodgers showed up tonight
I've never seen them play like that so far this year. Not at all like the scrub team they usually are. No Kershaw, great defense, enough hitting and they won the series against the Nationals. Really hopeful for this team after now
>>68794197
Is there any stopping the Dodgers now?
Jintsfags must be worried af now. The NL West is staying in LA this year for sure.
>>68793127
Now do the maths to show how many wins Kershaw is better than Bumgarner at.
>45 wins
>>68793280
So cute!
>>68794233
I'm going to not shitpost super hard and give the honest answer: anything can happen yet, but if the Dodgers play like tonight, this year's Giants will not be able to keep up
>>68793955
Maybe. If they kept Q, they might make more in tradings from all the hype Sale has generated, while MAYBE gaining an offensive bump to put Q in the win column/spotlight.
Whether they deal Q too is a question, but one or the other would be striking while iron hot, and could really help fix their overall situation.

So you're really going to argue that because Korea beat Japan 4-3 in one semi final tournament game that the Korean league is better?
Shitty tournament anyway, The WBC is the only one that fields top players. (Although the US doesn't take it completely seriously and is always lacking for pitching. If the US sent their very best guys--particularly pitchers--they'd most likely win every time).
Major League players weren't allowed here.

Here are some major team stats and where the Rangers rank in the AL
>Pitching
ERA: 3.94 (4th)
FIP: 4.56 (15th)
xFIP: 4.55 (14th)
fWAR: 4.4 (11th)
RA9-WAR: 10.5 (1st)
combined WAR: 7.5 (6th)
kwERA: 4.58 (15th)
SIERA: 4.48 (15th)
Rangers get fewer strikeouts than any pitching staff in the league and they walk guys (11th in the AL). Despite that they're middle of the pack in allowing line drives AND ground balls. I would have expected them to be higher in the ground ball department.
This is probably not as good of a pitching staff as it seems to be. But I think their peripheral stats will get better as the season progresses so I don't think they're in for a total pitching collapse or anything like that. Plus they will get Darvish and AJ back. In the bullpen Kela and perhaps a trade acquisition can stabilize things.
>Defense
The Rangers are the best American League team in terms of both UZR and DRS by a lot.
This is the biggest reason the pitching staff looks better than it does. They're particularly strong in getting double plays which is a real testament to their defense considering the pitching staff is not that good at inducing ground balls
>Batting
Runs: 336 (4th)
HR: 86 (6th)
BB%: 6.9% (13th)
K%: 19.0% (5th)
ISO: .164 (8th)
AVG: .265 (4th)
OBP: .321 (8th)
SLG: .429 (7th)
wOBA: .322 (5th)
wRC+: 95 (10th)
A solid offense with aggressive hitters generally. There's room for improvement here, and the good news is it can come from within. Choo getting back and staying back should help as well with either the improvement or replacement of one of Moreland/Fielder.
>Baserunning
The Rangers are 6th in the AL with 44 stolen bases, but are 2nd in terms of successful stealing base attempts (78.6%). They're 5th in the AL in baserunning overall. The rub is that if you believe BsR there's only five teams in the AL who are any good at running the bases. There's a huge gap between the Rangers and the 6th place team, the Orioles.

>>68816453

>>68816487
>anon
>having a team and sticking to it
I'm sure every team that wins a championship is your team for the year.
>>68816548
All they're doing right now is riding a hot wave. I'm no expert but I'm forecasting a prolonged losing stretch in the near future. Some of their numbers are pretty concerning and it will eventually catch up to them. The beauty of baseball is that at some point it all evens out due to it being 162 game season.
>>68816803
Maybe. We will see. I don't think they keep up constantly winning series like they have been. But they are winning the division.

Not entirely random. Some people's bodies are more prone to injury than others, which does make it a measurable statistic in a rather limited capacity
>>68824286
>Injuries are entirely random.
Not at all, especially for pitchers.
A lot of it is mechanics, the dynamic of throwing a pitch with your shoulder versus with your arm/elbow.
Kershaw just has a very well built upper body that accommodates the way he throws.
Then you have things like >>68824283 where it's always been an inkling of an issue because of the way he throws it.
It is avoidable in some frames, if you have the build and throwing mechanics. Not entirely based on luck.
>>68824519

Then explain Chris Sale. He's 6'6 and only weighs 180. He has a rather ugly delivery and managed to stay relatively healthy his entire career.
>>68824286
>Injuries are entirely random.
They're not. Kershaw actually has talent beyond throwing hard and can actually pitch with 92-94 without getting an MRI every 10 days.
You may only reply to this post if your team's ace has never had and never will have TJS.
Not so fast, Mestfags
>>68824626
The same thing with Randy Johnson. Bean pole magic.
Hard to explain them, but he's the exception not the rule.
>>68824539
There was a really good article I read that talked about Kershaw and Scherzers mechanics. Something about their motion being flawed and unconventional which has should NOT work at the major league level. They have "cheats" in their upper body's and arms which allow them to throw at a high level without injury.
>>68824675
I agree but there's certainly an element of luck towards injuries. Some are more prone but there's also players who have had some terrible luck.
>>68824653
>bumshit
>ace pitcher
wtf am i reading
>>68824626
Although the who's are an art form, they have a very good track record of keeping their players healthy
>>68824863
Curt Schilling on his stream said that when he was in Arizona and was watching Scherzer as a prospect, he thought the kid had no chance to be anything in the league, that his stuff wasn't go enough and that the way he threw was going to prevent him from surviving a single season.
Said "boy was I wrong"
It's funny how some people just have a better body than others for these things.
>>68824905
I don't disagree, but I think it's far more mechanics than it is luck.
Luck plays more towards those that have a terrible mechanic but don't get injured then it does for those prone to injury.
Luck's a beneficiary, not the other way around.
>>68824973
It also doesn't help when 12 year olds are throwing nothing but sliders. Kids would preserve their arm for much longer if they worked on locating fastballs and having a good chance up.

DG is the most cancerous MLB trip/namefag currently though, and is second only to pickcincy across history
>>68826087

It just makes me laugh because of how stupid he is. He just embarrasses himself.
>>68826087
Then St. Louis knocked Kershaw around like the little bitch he is, and did again in 2014

You've embarrassed yourself 100X more over the past week with your cancerous opinions than DG did in the NLDS and off-season combined.

That's probably not DG, m8. I bet its another falseflagger.
>>68826087
Is this the biggest regular season choke job in the history of baseball?
How the fuck do you finish dead last when you had a 10 game lead?
Wtf
>>68826367
Braves losing the wild card to St. Louis in 2011 was pretty fucking bad.
10.5 game lead as late as the last week of August IIRC

Hi there!
You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!
Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bait to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!
>>68826401
I remember that game I don't want to talk about it.
>>68826406
You okay m8? You know they'll keep posting with trips even if you don't want them too. Just filter, my man.
>>68825554
In his prime he has only had 2 bad games. They were just so bad that it inflated his stats.
>>68826145
Yeah, crazy part is that kershaw looked invincible against the cards for 6 innings and then had one of his rare 7th inning breakdowns. Mattingly failed to take him out after like 5 straight hits because he didn't trust the memepen and the rest is history.
>Storen isn't a shit anymore
Maybe there's hope after all
>>68826487
Well, in Kershaw's defense, Mattingly wasn't managing.
>>68826429
It wasn't an individual game, you're thinking of 2012
>>68826588
Yeah, I remember now. 2bh my memory is pretty fuzzy from 2009-2013 because I wasn't really into baseball as much as I am now. I was just a casual fan then.
>Getting swept by meth addicts
>>68826567
Kershaw often fights to stay in the game. Mattingly was a pussy in that regard. Sometimes Mattingly would tell Kershaw in the dugout if he was ready to come out and Kershaw would get heated because he wants go as long as possible. It usually doesn't backfire, but obviously he got blown the fuck out by the cards.
Whoever watched the nats vs kershaw match 2 days ago could see that the game was very similar to Kershaw vs the cards in that he looked completely dominant and then broke down in the 7th. Only difference is that Nats failed with risp. Earlier in the season Marlins did the same to Kershaw where they exploded in the 7th despite getting 1 hit for 6 innings.
>>68826753
Unutterably brutal.
>>68826795
Kershaw is pretty immature and egotistical desu
>>68826858
That's called autism from trying to be the GOAT
>>68826799
CG just wants the Cubs to take the title of "biggest choke job" away from the 2011 Braves
>>68826795
>Kershaw often fights to stay in the game. Mattingly was a pussy in that regard.
It's actually the exact opposite. Mattingly had Kershaw on a much shorter leash than most managers would. You have to remember that they both knew each other from when Kershaw was a nobody prospect. Kershaw is a pretty level headed guy and calm those few times we've seen him explode in the dugout are the ones that were made public.
He pulled him out in situations where Kershaw could have survived. And he's left him in when it's clear he's past fatigue and can't even get on a 0-2 count.

Is this a fair assessment?

For good reason
>>68827376
Both, they primarily pick up pitchers with shitty memechanics
So, I went to a game at Marlins park yesterday, and it was actually comfy af tbqh. It's a nice ballpark, clean, good concessions, reasonable ticket prices ($50 for right behind home plate), friendly staff. Why can't that team draw any fans?
Also it's nice seeing a ballpark where the crowd isn't literally 100% boring white dudes.
>>68828817
Because the front office is full of dicks, I think
Plus they haven't had any real playoff success
>>68828817
Because Loria is a piece of shit.
>>68828855

Absolutely ruined, just like Syndergaard's career.
why do all mets pitchers get TJS
>>68830234
Just a compounding factory of ineptitude and misery.
>>68829550
A's make me sad, not angry
>>68831034
Don't be sad. Think of the greats like Rollie Fingers, Dennis Eckersley, the Man of Steal Ricky Henderson, Mark McGwire*, and Jose "juicebox" Canseco. Just because you suck now doesn't mean you'll always suck. Believe in your team and your team will believe in you.
>>68831232
Hard to believe in a team you thought hit its low point last season.
Nothing's gonna change until literally EVERYONE in the FO is dead.

I know that pain. I spent many an afternoon and night in the Coliseum watching the horror of the Pathetics too.
