Xander isn't much to brag about defensively either. I don't buy DRS by the eye test. UZR seems much more realistic. And UZR has him about exactly average. To me, the eye test says he's smooth and steady with good mechanics but is just plain slow.

They're 1/12, GDP, IBB with a runner on base from the 7th on. And 0 for their last 11. The only guys who haven't sucked in these situations: Xander and JBJ. (Chavis, too.) Devers has been awful in these situations.

And yet he still looks like Ozzie Smith compared to Jeter towards the end. And he's supposedly even worse than that?

Aaaaand cue the totally futile Devers at-bat. He and JDM seem like the biggest culprits.

Devers is probably worn the hell down. He's never played anywhere near as much as he has this year.

That ball in the dirt bounced and hit Holt's leg. I can't believe no one caught it. This game is over.

DRS last year had no correlation with wOBA - xWOBA allowed, and it should have. IIRC, UZR did, but I may be imagining that. One more project to look into, especially since I can adjust xwOBA for fly balls hit to center.

One more project to look into, especially since I can adjust xwOBA for fly balls hit to center. Both of these stats have to figure out how to adjust for good vs bad shifting. JD Martinez is the same defensive fielder, regardless of whether he's playing for Detroit, Arizona or Boston. And he's not magically a good fielder now and the worst in the majors with the other teams.

It's a good night to have 17 pitchers in the bullpen.
