In the greatest sense of historical. Like if a dude hits .400 with the minimum amount of at bats, or if the Yankees win the world series, both would have 0 meaning to me. Unless, of course, the Red Sox go on a tear and become good, in which case this is the most meaningful season ever. Right? Because it seems clear that that's influencing your reasoning pretty heavily. In terms of the significance of a 60 game season, there are several that thought that before the season began. |

You don't see many bases loaded triples. The odds would have to be small.

Nice at bat for Raffy! Triples are always fun. Triples with the bases loaded are just gold.

no longer having access to live video or following games to often anymore...i see that gameday has his 4 seamer at 95 or so. Has that been the case so far for Darwinzon ? i thought i remembered him in the high 90's

Has that been the case so far for Darwinzon ? i thought i remembered him in the high 90's yea, 93-95mph so far. Definitely seems a little down from last year, where I remember him regularly reaching back for 96-97mph. |

I should think that if they want to look at Darwinzon stretched out, upper 90's will be the rare case.

if they look at a 2-3 inning guy, I agree. But i really do remember some 98-99, with some regularity last year. I could be wrong, admittedly. I dont remember like i used to.  |

Or perhaps a starting role next year. I am mostly watching pitch counts and ball/strike ratios.

Good to see Darwinzon go to back to back sliders to get Drury.

The raw stuff is there, command is the issue but at his age, that's not uncommon. |

Don't forget, Darwinzon was a late report because of Covid. In a normal year, this would still be spring training for him.

Matt Barnes not exactly helping his trade value.

Matt Barnes not exactly helping his trade value. more like killing his trade value, all season long. His FIP is almost 7. |

Double digit wins. Sometimes you just gotta take what you can get.
