I customized this leaderboard trying to get Mason Miller's 50% K rate into its appropriate Edwin Diaz-Felix Bautista context, and danged across 2022-2024 if 2024 Craig Kimbrel isn't right there in the top tier. https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders/major-league?pos=all&lg=all&type=1&ind=1&stats=rel&team=0&startdate=&enddate=&month=0&season1=2022&season=2024&qual=10&sortcol=7&sortdir=default&pagenum=1 Should OAK move Miller, I think Edwin Diaz-Jarred Kelenic is one decent example from recent seasons what a Bat for Relief star structure might look like.

Holy Rio Ruiz, Batman!

Sophomore slump deemed rough enough for Jordan Walker to need a reset even after a pretty good 2023.

I hope Elias and Adley have as much success together as Belichick and Brady before in the long run of time baseball probably creates some data what happens with one but not the other. I do really enjoy Elias having grown up with OPACY before the Nats, and hope he'll be around for the long haul. I think chances are at least decent there, but I do also think Mike Elias vs. the field might be an interesting prop bet if Hal Steinbrenner ever lets go of huckleberry Brian Cashman. From Sig interviews, I'm pretty sure he'll stick with Elias as long as he is able. I guess POBO Eve Rosenbaum here could be fun if succession ever became necessary.

5 turns along Grayson sits 5th in 4-seam fastball velo among SP, lagging... Hunter Greene, 2019 TJ Jared Jones, a survivor like him, so far doing exciting things Jordan HIcks, 2019 TJ Dylan Cease, 2014 TJ Grayson got to 3000 game pitches in 2023; Jared Jones' 2022-2023 looks like 2050 and 2067 pitches according to Fangraphs.

I get they had to get him out of the Monday-Sunday slot Suarez now has so as not to miss the Yankees series, but I do kind of wish they pushed him up to Sunday in Kansas City. Much of his career has been Sigbot regulated how much an Arm as strong as his is allowed to throw, and so far the broad health results are favorable. Flimsy command is I believe helped more pitching more, or at least those were the kind of things I remember people like Scott McGregor saying about why they preferred the 4-man rotation when that practice was dying out and I was a young child. This fork in the calendar path does slot him to Yankees Game 1, and leaves the door cracked for Bradish in Game 4 next Thursday afternoon.

Nick Pollack's write up mentioned the BABIP, though certainly watching that performance it was the kind of performance to make you think Voros McCracken and DIPS theory is hokum. I don't think it was random variation getting pummeled there last night. Hopefully the Angels didn't find any cues the Yankees might also be able to benefit from.

These Angels relievers are some of the relievers who will be available later for not the top tier of Orioles prospects.

Pat Connaughton's Bucks unable to hang on to first round home court advantage in the very early days of the NBA playoffs. Milwaukee is hoping to hang in there long enough for Giannis to make it back. Austin Hays' calf probably has a ceiling of 2nd place in sport power rankings.

Strong contender there for Max Height on an infield throw resulting in an out.

I knew some of the Japanese Clubs include corporations in their team names, and a few Google clicks looks like it clarifies the Yakult Swallows are perhaps named in honor of the probiotic drink KB was going on about last inning.

Now is when we need that Sal Perez moment off Corbin Burnes down a bunch.

Swing rate 100%, O-Swing rate 100%, it is just 100%.

Earlier tonight they were talking about JP France grinding out some innings after letting in a bunch of runs, and the line on MLB Network was... He's relieving himself out there tonight.

Just caught up in DVR and yeesh. Trout top of 1st I wasn't sure to be bemused or aggravated up in the count Grayson's gameplan seemed to be, "let me challenge you center cut".
