Bro we have the best OPS and 2nd best ERA in the AL. We're not perfect and there are areas for improvement but let's not stray too far in the other direction. This is a good team and I would say defin

Been a lot of “those games” recently. This team has way too many game of doing little to nothing and then pads the stats with a few big games occasionally or 1 or 2 big innings.

I know we did lead the league with fewest games scoring 2 or less about a week ago.  Most teams score 6+ runs some then have little offense.   It isn’t that uncommon.

Sometimes a good team just slumps as a unit, for a week or two, then gets back to normal.

I think there is a degree of fatigue with this team and they need the all star break to get refreshed. And hopefully a couple pitchers will be joining the team via trade by the end of the month.

Didn’t want to use Mullins for him and was saving Kjerstad for McCann is my guess 

Mullins has a .700 OPS vs RHP and Hays .604 vs RHP when he batted.  Ah well.

I dont know if they know, bit you actually have to score runs to have a chance to win.

This team is sleep walking since it got back from thr west coast. 

Not a single player wants to step up offensively .

      Is Matt Wieters >Adley?

      If he has been injured all this time, why are they still letting him play? After a month of poor performance with an injury, they should have sat him. EDIT - Screw a month, 2 weeks.

      And McCann is our worst RHB facing a dominant lefty with reverse splits. You have to think a K is a high likelihood.  And then to send him up there with Ramon on 3rd, you have to expect the same outcome.

      I don't like hearing that a catcher has a back issue -no matter how big or how small it is- at age 26.

      IMO he made two decisions that were clearly wrong, pitching to Witt and not PR Holliday, to go along with a couple others I didn’t agree with but are certainly debatable. There is no doubt that the game was lost because the bats couldn’t push a run across, but everyone has a job to do, and like the batters, Hyde didn’t do his.

      I use the StatCast search function. It’s a little more complicated for chase rate, ground ball rate, popup rate, and sweet spot rate because you need to adjust selected pitch attributes/outcomes as well as total pitch definition and then use % of pitches. I believe popups are categorized by stringers and generally capture balls that an infielder could catch.  I believe Adley’s fly balls have gotten can of cornier even without the popups.

      ...or simply choose not to even attempt to play situational baseball.  As I posted in another thread, 0-0 game both teams aces are dealing.  Ced leads off the inning with a double.  Your #9 hitter (McCann) is coming to the plate with your two best hitters (Gunnar and Westburg) to follow. Instead of bunting Ced to 3rd and almost assuring yourself a 1-0 lead which firmly puts the pressure on KC, Hyde chooses to let McCann swing away.  He feebly strikes out, Gunnar grounds out (there was your run), and Westburg flies out.  0 runs, 1 hit, 0 errors. 1 left on....

      Adley - Is it an injury? Is it a woman? Is it the "process?" Is it just who he is at his age? What Is It? And no, I'm not doing a pole. Wait till 2025 for the answer - I think. Till then - speculate. This off season goin be fun on here. This thread kinda makes me miss Rick Dempsey and I have absolutely no idea why. 😄 Oh yea, he was our last WSMVP.
