Fry is gonna be out of baseball once the the 3 batter minimum reliever rule takes effect. Fry is not allowed to leave the organization until after he and Burger are in the same game together.

Chisox378 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Theo's politically correct non sense and not backing up Maddon cost them the title last season. I'll take Kenny-Hahn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 1 minute ago, Jake said: What metrics would those be? Some metrics made it look for much of the year like his ERA may have overstated his success, but they wouldn't have led to the conclusion that he was pitching badly Led to the conclusion that if he didn’t start missing bats and throwing strikes, he was going to get killed. He finished strongly but looks even worse to start the year than he did last year when his metrics were so bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His 5.22 xFIP in 2018 says otherwise. Both Lopez and Giolito were the bottom 2 in qualifying pitchers with regard to xFIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 2 minutes ago, fathom said: Wasn’t he one of the worst pitchers in baseball in terms of metrics for almost all the year? August he had a 4 FIP, and September he had a 2.74 FIP in about 65 total innings. He was very good down the stretch. Hes k rate also jumped up to 8 and then 9.55 the final two months. He never looked that good in Washington and it was following a change. He needs to find that again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he did get better in September. The guy Lopez was in September 2018 is an MLB pitcher. The guy from March-August 2018 was not.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Just now, Jack Parkman said: No he did get better in September, I didn't see that. A 4 FIP with 8k per 9 is much better and fine as well. The final third of his season he got significantly better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisox378 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Just now, Tony said: I'd love to know what this means... In short: Maddon states he doesnt know all of information on the SS who supposedly was hitting his wife, which was true at the time. Theo then publicly says Maddon was insensitive.
