Extremely impressive outing from Bradish tonight.   I think what impressed me most was when he started the 6th by allowing a long double and an inside the park homer, and rather than panicking he stru

So we drafted Bundy and were supposed to get a RHP with an upper 90's fastball, a knee buckling curve, and a great cutter. He gets hurt and comes back as a good pitcher at times but not the guy we ori

The stuff is really good. Just needs to keep the ball out of the middle of the plate and he’s gonna be a good one. 

It's tough to keep the ball out of the middle when the ump is calling every pitch on the edge of the zone a ball.  He seems to be adjusting very well and getting more comfortable.

That was a fine debut. Quality start. Best part is that didn’t look intimidated at all. All business. Left a fastball over the plate that cost him. And then he rolled the rest of the way. I’ve seen a lot of him so the thing that I hadn’t seen yet was his composure in a big moment….and he passed that with flying colors. And like Tony said, he flashed a change-up that was pretty sick. Incredibly happy for the young man. That was fun. Hard not to think about what Rodriguez, Hall, Bradish, Wells, and Zimmerman can do in the coming years.

I really liked the quality of his stuff.  Fastball has hop, curve has serious sharp break.  Tony liked the changeup.  And, his demeanor on the mound was terrific.  Didn’t let the one bad inning get to him.  Very encouraging.   And by the way, nice to see the O’s let him go 6 innings!

That was one terrible post game interview.  Was messing up canned lines and acted like he was was annoyed to be doing an interview.  Doesn’t seem to have much going on upstairs.  He admitted he lost focus in the 4th and became a “fan” watching the offense put up runs.  Pretty frustrating inning.  Hope he bounces back in a big way.

Wow, missed that! Anyone have a link to the interview by chance?

Took me awhile to find it:  https://video.masnlivestream.com/video/Kyle Bradish on his rough fourth inning against Twins/2170

 

It's not that bad, IMO.  Not all of these guys are going to be brilliant and engaging in front of the media.  Not all of these guys are going to like answering questions, especially after a bit of struggling.  Maybe there's a little bit of Bedard here, and that's fine.

Which brings me to the best ever Bedard/media exchange:

Bedard:  "I'm only allowing three questions."

Reporter:  "Why only three questions?"

Bedard:  "That's one."

I died.  That was hilarious.

      I’m guessing it’s #3. I was a bit worried about #4, but if that was the case, don’t think that Suarez would be pitching today.

      Can Cowser still win Rookie of The Year over Gil/Wells ?

      By Warehouse · Posted

      Are you OK with context independent batting inputs that are used in WAR?  It feels like pitching and hitting should be symmetrical in terms of how they factor in sequencing.   FRV is definitely better than DRS for outfielders, as @tangotiger convincingly argues here.  For infielders, it’s more debatable, especially 1B where only DRS accounts for picks. By the way, Fangraphs WAR leaderboard allows you to toggle between FIP, RA9, and a 50/50 mix.  Cowser beats Gil regardless of the approach.

      Hm, seems like perfect situation for Akin as an opener, maybe game 3 if necessary?

      Another possibility: If you win game 1, maybe you don't ptich Eflin in Game 2 and try to win Game 2 without using him.   I mean, worst that can happen is you lose and have Eflin for game 3 anyway.   So you won't lose the wild card series without pitching your two best. But you COULD win the wild card series without your two best, and then you would have Eflin and Burnes lined up for games 1 and 2 in Cleveland

      I like Law a lot, but that is a beyond asinine comment about not playing every day on a playoff team. You know how many playoff teams would slot him in the lineup immediately every game? Answer: the large majority. The Yankees would take Cowser over Verdugo The Tigers might not put him in over Greene/Meadows/Carpenter, but they’d DH him over their options. Cowser would start over every outfielder for the Royals, IMHO. He’d start over Meyers and Dubon for the Astros. The Guardians would probably start him over anybody not named Kwan in the OF, tbh.  I can keep going.

      Even more of a reason to like FG over BBref,  tbh. Thanks, didn’t realize they switched this year. My point re: FIP is that I rather prefer it over RA/9, not to say it’s perfect. RA/9 treats all runs allowed by a pitcher the same regardless of them being earned or unearned. So, a pitcher on a team with a terrible defense is going to be judged much more harshly than somebody that pitches on a top tier defense. Not to mention the bullpen taking over mid inning dilemma. The funny thing is in your example re: FIP, RA/9 would have the first pitcher but love the second. Either way, these stats, like nearly all single solitary stats, aren’t best taken alone.  For your example, let’s say Pitcher A allowed weak contact and the defenders just had poor range, poor arms, whatever, but in the second example the defenders had great range and great arms making amazing plays to prevent any damage…then what?  Anyways, give me FIP over RA/9 was my point. But if you want to truly assess a pitcher, you’re going to need a few complimentary stats to go along with it.
