I don't know if he's "done" but I think the valleys are too long and the peaks aren't enough. I agree he's a 4th outfielder, whether or not he's accepting of that role remains to be seen. All I know is that I'd rather see Cowser getting the majority of starts in LF moving forward when Hays comes back. -

Last year, Kimbrel gave up 5 total runs in 3 of his first 4 outings. In the beginning of May (ironically) he gave up 6 runs in 1 IP spanning 2 outings. Over his next 30 appearances, he gave up 7 runs..good for a 2.1 ERA. Through the rest of August, he gave up 5 runs in 4 appearances. He then gave up 2 runs in the month of Sept. 2022 was similar. He just goes through some stretches of not being good and way longer stretches of being very good. -
Wow you remembered! How did you remember the exact mistake? I just remember being gobsmacked and horrified and embarrassed for her at the time. It being a special hyped all women telecast. -

Newman didn't know how far the runners could advance on a ground rule double. She thought the runner on 1B could score on one. -

I don't think that the inverse is true. The issue for the hitters is the rapid increase of velo and the ability of the pitchers to command their stuff on the corners (even for your average middle reliever). I saw Holliday for one, "eliminating" certain back door breaking balls when he arrived in the Show. Now while he had probably been able to take such an approach because most of the Minor League pitchers that he saw could not execute that pitch with any type of consistency. The average MLB pitcher can command that pitch on the corners (even in hitter's counts). They can back door you 2-0 Then front door you 2-1. Then gas you up in the zone when you are looking breaking ball with 95+ when it's 2-2. And that is just the average middle reliever. IMO Major League pitching is more skilled than it's ever been. And what the article was pointing out is that you just don't see that kind of quality with any consistency in the Minors. Because with the rash of injuries (increased probability of almost all pitchers suffering arm injuries) if guys can execute at a high level, they are quickly brought to the Bigs. The way we slow play our position player prospects, you really can't afford to do that with pitchers because they will most likely be injured if you wait too long to call them up. The good pitchers are mostly all in the Majors.
