@badgernoonan.bsky.social my impression of why they are using 45° is explicitly for swings like Yandy’s. He goes well past 0° and approaches 30 or so. But you and the guys think that should t be a swing, so your internal standard must be close to45. I think 0 is too low, but 45 is way too high

@cyrthogg.bsky.social I would like you to ask Pat after 4 errors and another few misplays at what point do you have to sit Cooper and start Joey at SS. This is getting ridiculous

@fangraphs.com I’m still very curious why the Brewers and Rays odds seem to be reversely connected to home field advantage

we have to do the freddy chant because he knows we wont

@dszymborski.fangraphs.com Why is Game 1 (in Milwaukee) a 50/50 game and Game 5 (in Tampa) a 55/45 game favoring the Brewers? Something to do with the Trop or a mistake?

August v Jeff gentleman’s wager, loser must return to blogging

Brewers/Rays is the 8th World Series between teams that have never won one before 1903 Americans (Red Sox)/Pirates 1905 Giants/Athletics 1906 White Sox/Cubs 1907 Cubs/Tigers 1909 Pirates/Tigers 1920 Indians/Robins (Dodgers) 1980 Phillies/Royals 2026 Brewers/Rays (good idea @mikemedvin.bsky.social)

@jeffreypaternostro.bsky.social Brice Turang is a pull and lift guy? What?

@cdgoldstein.baseballprospectus.com dodgers in 5?

@mketailgatenetwork.bsky.social @jaymesl.bsky.social Games 1 & 5: Miz vs Skubal 2 & 6: Hendo vs Yamamoto 3 & 7: Gasser vs Snell 4: Drohan? Vs Glasnow Yamamoto pitches game 2 on regular rest to be ready for Game 6.

@cdgoldstein.baseballprospectus.com the other “surface” that has an analogous rule is a bird. Obviously there are differences, just saying that if it hits a bird and falls and you catch it, it’s still an out. So analogous insofar as “ball hits something and is still caught for an out”

@euqubud.baseballprospectus.com literally the next day a ball hit that high and hard landed right at the warning track.

@cyrthogg.bsky.social how close was Pratt to second at the point cronenworth threw the ball into the dugout? If he’s on 2 he gets to score there

sir do you deny that you witnessed Trae Young's 10-assist, 8-turnover performance? is it your testimony that you have never witnessed Clint Capela going 1-for-4 from the foul line? might i remind you that you are UNDER OATH

Logan Henderson finishes his season with a 0.844 WHIP across 98.1 innings. That's the lowest WHIP by a rookie starting pitcher with at least 50 IP thrown in 118 years, since Elmer Steele in 1908.

This ESPN story is 2,500 words long and somehow doesn't once find room for the four words "Pablo Torre Finds Out"

john smoltz is a baseball dementor

New Gyro Step mailbag pod this morning! We answered tons of great questions on vet trade value, the Burries/Rollins duo, if Ware and Turner can play together, our expected risers and fallers and more. Links at GSPN.info to listen or watch now

And I note this not even to suggest that caps don’t guard against dynasties (although they don’t!), but to say this: dynasties and repeat champions are *part of normal sports cycles*, and throwing tantrums about them is strange and illogical!

This is NOT normal #WNBASky #SkyHoops

How dare you, Jeff Cirillo will always be a Hall of Famer in our hearts.

Packers fans and their "worthless" stock certificates like...

MLS says a stopped clock would “improve consistency and fan understanding.” For example, stopping play could help fans understand that Continental is the smart choice in tires

WNbA has implemented new freedom of movement rules for everyone except Caitlin. Still allowed to hold and push her without a call.

@cyrthogg.bsky.social another sinker to a lefty?

@cyrthogg.bsky.social perhaps a talking point for one of your next pods... I was looking at wRC+ vs DRC+ for the Crew. Here is the top 10 in PA sorted by DRC+. I, for one, was shocked that Sal was at 103!

@jaymesl.bsky.social where do you all think Aaron Ashby ranks in appearances? Or reliever innings? Hint: it is no where near first. He leads the league in two categories— pitcher wins, and alphabetical names.

How often is the no. 1 pick in the WNBA draft not the best player on her college team?

“I will beat Geno’s ass” - Dawn Staley

Jacob Misiorowski isn't so much trying to win the Cy Young Award, as get it renamed after him.

@cyrthogg.bsky.social we need* some clarity on this deal. Is it 8 years $51M plus 2 team options at $15M each? *need is a strong word, especially since it isn't my money, its Cooper's now.

@cyrthogg.bsky.social Joey Ortiz not in the lineup tongiht... Is he in the lockerroom?

another banner day for "if you didn't know sports were real, ESPN headlines would be crazy"

Just in case Mark DeRosa is unclear: Yes, this does eliminate the USA from the WBC

Mason Miller going unused by DeRosa is too perfect

This is why Brewers fans would be dumb to support a salary cap.

@rdtopp.bsky.social pedantic, I know, but Andrew Vaughn joined the Brewers on July 7th. From July 7th on, the best hitter on the Brewers was Brice Turang: .298/.370/.519 for a 147 wRC+! FIVE NINETEEN! (also wild that minimum 70 PA everyone but Perkins and Joey was > 110, 11 guys!)

Two straight blowouts, why should the AFC get an automatic Super Bowl berth?

First baseball arby decision to make sense since Braun beat the charges. bsky.app/profile/jeff...

@jimowczarski.bsky.social pool report question needs to be phrased “replays clearly show that Myles Turners foot was not on the sideline, so why did you call him out anyway?”

@jimowczarski.bsky.social Jim, his left foot is literally never out of bounds. What are we even doing here? I mean, this is absurd beyond belief

24 hours until the trade deadline, Bucks fans. Milwaukee vs. Everybody. #KeepGiannis
