Random question. Headed to Olsen to watch the Aggies. Where is the best place to park without a pass?

HB telling Chandler Rome he hasn't been approached about an extension? Seriously? Not even gonna try, huh.

Doesn't mean Dana didn't approach Boras about an extension and get laughed at.

Pretty sure that is exactly what it means.

Burrows looked nasty today.

I am not one to overhype and read into small samples. But I am pretty sure Brown, Imai, and Burrows are the new Maddux, Glavine, and Smoltz.

ABS is giving them 6"-8" off the plate strike calls?

1 hit/1 run through 5 innings, only two combined hits between the Nats and Astros. Veteran teams probably wish there was a literal fast forward button to the regular season.

Wow, the dude has hit 2 HR in 280 AB, but hits a dong in the WBC. Pretty cool

Are all the green ads computer generated on top of the existing ones? Or did the WBC physically cover the typical sponsors?

The green looks great, we should adopt that look permanently. It makes everything look more cohesive. Less crazy colors.

He got out OPS'd by Jake Meyers and his 3 homeruns. (Walker was 9th in OPS)

Walker was not good at all. Now I hope and think he will have a bounce back year in 2026. But RBI don't tell the story of how his season went


I'm old so I focus more on how many runs a guy gets home. Myers had 100 hits and drove in 24. Walker had 139 hits and drove in 88. In 2024 Alvarez had 170 hits and drove in 86. I just look at it differently I guess.

Walker left 284 runners on base.
Meyers left 133 runners on base.

Simple stats like RBIs dont tell a full story, especially when comparing a 4-hole hitter against an 8/9-hole hitter.

Walker had 242 more ABs than Jake. Any counting stat is going to be slanted heavily in his favor, whether it's RBIs or runners LOB.

That's fair. I'm not saying it's an unimportant stat… But typically the four hole hitter gets the most RBI opportunities. I'm more focused on the times that Walker did not come through in that spot. Not to mention he also patted some of those stats at the very end of the season when the chance to make the playoffs was pretty much done

He had a .237 batting average with runners in scoring position. So imagine how many RBI he would've had if his average was about 20 points higher (.257-.260)… Which is what I would consider to be average for an MLB player.

Should I be concerned that Yordan is 0-8 with 4 K's? Asking for a friend.
