“Yeah man, can’t vote ARod and Manny because PEDs but Pettitte is a ‘yes’ for me” has always been the funniest HOF take.

There are 7 players with +3000 hits and +500 HR and only 3 of them are in the HOF (since Cabrera and Pujols aren't yet eligible). Also just realized none of them are white

I keep hearing the #Yankees are looking for RH bats. As I’ve said, Hays and Refsnyder SMASH lefty pitching - two low risk high reward options.

Soccer has reminded us that when you sign big time players, they usually do big time things, and you win.

Circling back on some #Yankees news - Devin Williams was very good last season (yes - yes, he was) and Hal is still a tool.

Devin Williams is Very Good, and Hal is Still a Fool
Tis the season… That is, the season in which real life responsibilities tend to supersede my baseball word rants. So today, let’s play some catchup with recent Yankees news we should touch upon. Fi…

Looking forward to all the takes from people who have been concerned about Arte Moreno’s bank account the last few years.

Truth
Ben Rice had a better xwOBA than Cal Raleigh's wOBA and its not particularly close.

Truth
Spoiler alert: When facing LHP, Austin Hays and Rob Refsnyder were essentially Juan Soto vs all pitching in '25. Both are good under the radar fits for this roster and the #Yankees should get one of them.

I plan on circling back, but FWIW: Mike Trout had his worst more or less full season in his career by miles. And his OBP was the same as Cal Raleigh's.
The gap between Judge and Raleigh (not just OBP - everything) offensively was MASSIVE and I'm so glad just enough people realized that.

This, this, this…
Cal Raleigh had an exceptional year. Good for MVP in a great many seasons. In my view, this wasn't particularly close though. Judge is doing absolute freak shit at the plate, but he's been doing it so consistently that it doesn't feel that crazy anymore. Which is nuts!

Reminder that nobody would know who Joe Maddon is if he didn’t work for, and manage rosters assembled by Andrew Friedman and Theo Epstein - and Maddon bashed “analytics” when fired by LAA. We’re not talking about a particularly bright guy here.
Certified Crank Joe Maddon is comparing the new Giants manager to, you guessed it, Mamdani

When you get past all the noise, here’s the signal: DePodesta is a good dude, had a big influence on MLB, and got a raw deal with LAD in the before times. This is a good thing.

If Devon White played with his glove on his throwing hand, while wearing a weight vest, after three shots of Seagrams - he’d be a better CF than Daulton Varsho.
What an absolute shit show Varsho has been this postseason.

I’m going to keep saying it: Daulton Varsho is single handedly making me doubt today’s defensive metrics.

Watching Gausman absolutely toy with elite hitters for an inning and a half before getting lit up should be a reminder to us all that relief pitchers are comically overrated.
