I hate the Yankees

They’ll run right through both of those teams. 

That is correct.  The Twins pose zero challenge to the Yankees.  They literally never beat them, when it counts or when it doesn’t.  Mentally, the Yankees own the Twins.  Check the stats since 2001.

Since 2001?  This Twins team is clearly different than any other recent Twins teams.

The Twins have hit more home runs than the Yankees this year, and they have a better team ERA.

Means nothing. The Yankees win that series in no more than 5. The Twins are not going into Yankee Stadium and steal a game. I just don’t see it.

I honestly don't.  I mean, I do because they're the Yankees but I don't really mind this version of them.  I find their players likable.  This isn't the A-Rod/Clemens version.  

I loathe Boston.  I'd rather have the Yankees being good any day of the week over Boston.

 

 

Over here it’s totally different. Over here you have A LOT of bandwagon Yankees fans and they’re in full force right now. Nothing would be better than to see the Astros own them.

How do I get downvoted for starting the same thread as the op who got upvoted, and has a 7 page thread

come on, COC, you come up with some garbage posts

Simple, this is a rant you posted in Orioles Talk.  Not sure why I didn't downvote the original, I must have been in a rare good mood.

We have a forum for rants, if you had posted this there I'd have been cool with it.

It's like that anywhere.  I mean, where'd all the fans come from to sell out OPACY during the playoff runs this decade?  

New York is New York.  It's one of the most popular cities in the entire world.  It's not a coincidence that the baseball team is extremely popular and has bandwagon fans.

The Yankees are playing the Orioles. It is the sixth inning.  You gotta be kidding me.

Grown adults (I'm assuming) complaining about rep on a message board.  You gotta be kidding me.

When I first got on this message board I got “talked to” about downvoting others.

I guess you have to be in the club.

Whatever.

    • Kremer has been the better pitcher this month, needs a super quick hook though 
    • Shout out to Dean. That was a nice performance in a big spot on the road. Well done. 
    • Kremer's a good Gibson.    It has kind of entrenched watching Elias bolt together a good team that in the Driveline era, almost all pitchers are on a spectrum somewhere between Kyle Gibson and Felix Bautista.     If you could put 13 Felix Bautistas on a playoff staff, you would but we aren't quite there yet though Driveline and club labs are working on it every year. Even missing some time this year, since joining the rotation for good 6/5/2022: -Dean's 427.2 innings are 26th MLB-wide. -Dean's ERA is 3.85. -The pitchers with more innings and a better ERA are Gerrit Cole, Sonny Gray, Kevin Gausman, George Kirby, Zack Wheeler, Zac Gallen, Dylan Cease, Chris Bassitt, Luis Castillo, Framber Valdez, Logan Gilbert, Corbin Burnes, Aaron Nola and Logan Webb.    Just them. Those 2.5 seasons also coincide with BAL having the AL's best record. It doesn't mean I feel I have the edge if ALDS Game 5 at Yankee Stadium is Dean Kremer v. Carlos Rodon, but he's someone I enjoy having on the team.     Have to figure he is a growth mindset and skill acquisition champion considering he volunteered in podcast that as a prep, he was like 5-6 and 130 pounds.
    • I always like it when people think a manager managed a good game cause all the bullpen moves worked. 
    • Agreed, if they decided to start Suarez I wouldn't complain. Through August he was on a roll and I thought he was a virtual lock to be in the playoff rotation.  Still, Kremer is pitching better right now. He also is the same or better in just about any metric now that Albert's HR rate has normalized. Kremer has better OPS splits vs both RHB and LHB, higher K rate, lower WHIP. fWAR and K/BB are basically identical. I can't think of an objective reason to go with Albert.
    • BTW, in what seems to be another recurring theme for the season, we seem to be hitting teams at just the wrong time. The Giants came in to BAL on a terrible run.  Since taking 2 of 3 from us, they've won 5 straight against contending teams Kansas City and Arizona. They have shutouts in 3 of those games and allowed 1 run in another.
