I took the under. I would have said something in the 2.5 range prior to the last week, but I think it's going to be a tall order to get there(2.5 or 3.0+) now. He's as talented as they come, but I've never felt like he would outperform Gunnar in regards to WAR. They'll be an excellent 1-2 punch though.

No...one is about walks allowed by the pitching, and the other is about walks from hitters.

Which one is rWAR?

I finally had a chance to watch it. I'm kinda lost on how anyone would have taken that to mean an extension is coming. I thought it was a clever promo.

According to Baseball Reference he's been worth 1 WAR in 16 games. That's pretty good. I also don't understand the advanced stats.

I went with NY and I'm sticking with it. Health will be the biggest factor for them.

I was partially correct, at least about Westburg. Obviously O'Hearn has been above and beyond what Nevin has been.

That would be such a shot in the arm...pun intended! Seriously though, getting him back and something close to what he was last year would be awesome.

O'Hearn is having a decent and weird start to the season. He's getting on base but only 1 RBI is kinda weird. I'm sure it'll normalize though.

He'll be in there today by the first inning. That's also going to be his first hit of his career.

I'm not trying to derail the thread, but I was 23 and my wife 20 when we got married. Working on year 25. Not every situation is the same.

Akin has looked excellent in the pen so far, and he had a stretch like this before. He will not be able to throw like he does now in a starting roll. I don't think his results as a SP would be any better than the start we watched from Wells last night. Any hopes for helping the starters out will have to come from Means and Bradish getting healthy. I don't think Elias will be willing to give up as much talent as it would require to get 2 starters at the deadline.

I'm generally a pessimist, but some of the stuff in this thread is a bit over the top. Everything about last nights game was embarrassing...the only decent takeaways would be Tate and Cowser. The fact that it happened during a broadcast where more non O's and Brewers fans were watching just compounds it a little bit more. Hays will get a plenty of chances to fix things, but he's as lost at the plate as he can be right now. Cut Mullins...lol. He's currently on a pace for a 3.5 WAR season according to Baseball Reference. That's with him being a bit mediocre at the plate. I'm sure he's going to warm up a bit as long as he stays healthy. Holliday, they seem committed to letting him take the 2B job. I think once he gets his first bloop hit or however it comes, he'll relax a bit. He literally has everyone and his brother watching his every move right now. Cal looked like a young fan watching his AB last night. That's an inordinate amount of pressure. The team needs a couple of pitchers. That's going to be an issue until the deadline and getting healthy. Wells just seems to be better suited for the BP. As soon and gloom as I feel sometimes, they're right on pace with their winning percentage from last year. They'll be ok.

I like the simplicity of the score and count thingy with Apple TV also.

I didn't know that they carried over from year to year. That's far more disappointing than the the game tonight.
