Good -- I was hoping to see Eddy and Rempe split up, since if they can bring heavy forecheck to both lines.
I would like to see Cuylle and Laf or Panarin flipped. They both work from the outside and Miller generates a lot net front, seems like there could be some good interplay there.

Interesting point from John Flaherty before our pregame show: Luis Gil has a huge difference in his arm angle between his fastball and his changeup
Gil Avg Arm Angle This Season
4-Seamer 38°
Changeup 23°
(MLB avg arm angle is 38°)
4-seam at the top of the photo, changeup at the bottom

Now that the regular season is over, I updated my numbers from several years ago on home run reliance, the percentage of runs that a team scores on home runs (aka "Guillen Number" as coined by @sheehannewsletter.bsky.social), and how that translates to hitting well in the postseason (thread)

This is by far the best of these I've seen, and the first to make me moderate my certainty on Judge being overwhelmingly ahead

Stats aside, can we all agree that the Yanks having a Wang and a Big Unit on the same rotation was hilarious? Who else from baseball history would round out that rotation?

I am astonished that this is only Williams second blown save of the season. He's been good since the terrible early stretch but that stretch was SO bad.
