that BaBip is fucked up, been over .300 all year...but i guess for him its normal.

last year sales BaBip was .282
year before it was .324

fluctuates a lot for him
It will fluctuate as it has a strong correlation to the defense behind you.

A .280 batting average, 200 strikeouts, and the guy is a MVP candidate? Man, baseball has fallen a long way.


Please don't tell me BA is important now after I tried to fight that fight for a decade with you fucking fucks from fuckland you fuck

We must be getting close to fall because Dirt is doing his annual <insert Yankee pitcher here> for Cy Young.

Last year it was Tanaka, now it's Severino.

Kluber by a mile

Severino second
Not by a mile. It's close, which why Sale will win. It's the same reason why Kluber won in 2014 when Felix had better overall stats. We've already covered this. If they both had already won a CY, then it would be Kluber. But Sale has not won a CY so they will give it to Sale.

So he's behind Judge but is a better base stealer


By the way
Houston is very friendly to RHH
He's overall a better base runner. Which increases his value. While also playing 2nd base which increases his value.

And Altuve's OPS is 300 points higher on the road than at home, while Judge's is 240 points lower on the road than at home.

I doubt Sale wins. In 2014 the writers could point to the win total of Kluber, they won't be able to do that this year. I agree that Hernandez should have won

BA's importance fluctuates depending on what the situation is when he comes to the plate and whether or not a walk would be just as good as a single. A walk has more value to a base stealer who is leading off an inning than it does to a power hitter who walks when there is a runner on second and first base is open. OBP can not account for this which makes it a flawed stat.

That's 2 votes out of the 30 pal. And even last year, Porcello got 2 votes from NY and only 1 from Boston. It's not like Baltimore where both guys voted for Britton

BA is also flawed in that it treats a HR the same as a single.

Snoogins insisted that Porcello has only pitched on bad game this season. I think you should cross over to the dark side and come smack him around a little bit.

Rhys Hoskins has proven that Aaron Judge is just a product of today's MLB (and supplements).
