Part I

Part II

Its a long read, but it is well written and the numbers are easy to understand. Also includes some side comments on pitchers' control over their BAbip.

- Would you say that the Tigers rebuild is more successful than the O's?

  I will say, I don’t think the O’s were unlucky in the playoffs. Especially in Game 1, they were mostly just terrible. It’s a little bit unusual to have 5 barrels in two games and only walk away with 1 total run, but we all saw it — for a couple months. They were squeezing sawdust out of the bat in any situation where the pressure was high. Guessing, lunging, trying to hit a 6-run homer on every pitch. The KC series was just more of the same. A team that lacked confidence and trust in themselves/each other and just totally messed the bed in situations where we’ve been watching them come through for years. That’s not bad luck, that’s just a team in a deep funk that played like absolute ass down the stretch. Saying DET has had good luck is different than saying that the O’s had bad luck, I think. Worse luck than them, sure, but bad luck isn’t the reason our guys failed.

  From the Baltimore Banner: "A source with knowledge of the situation said it was Fuller’s decision to depart Baltimore."

  The most likely answer.

  Maybe Fredi beefed with the Sigbot lineups or no manufacturing runs? Seems like an old school guy would.
