Tabler: "You look up when the day is done and see who's the leader in wins."

...And then you don't care because wins don't tell you nearly as much about a pitcher's performance as the stuff he can actually control. And you go about your day secure in the knowledge that you're not going to go overhyping Happ as being the best guy in the rotation by a significant margin just because he has the most wins in the last couple of years (mostly buoyed by a 20-win season where he was maybe marginally worse than he would be the next year but got a bit of a rub from a flukey low BABIP and a mild bit of HR/FB suppression)

If he said this people would turn off their sets. Do you think Pat created the graphic?

Out of curiosity, why was Morales playing first? Just giving him the odd game there so he doesn't completely forget how in case he ever got pressed into action?

He's actually pretty okay at first. He just hasn't seen any consistent innings and was shoehorned into the full-time DH role because of Eric Hosmer, the most overrated defensive first baseman I've probably ever seen.

Pillar with the mask again. someone needs to check if there was a string of bank robberies in Texas and then see if today there was a rash in Maryland

I'd look to see traces of his trademark 'K' at the scene of the crime

Also nice work by Barnes after a couple of balls leaked through the infield
