Pretty much a dream last 48 hours of results for Tottenham...

-Arsenal losing to Crystal Palace
-Man U getting smashed by Everton
-Chelsea drawing with Burnley

Top 4 looking very secure right now

It is interesting their home wRC+ as a team is 124 and their away wRC+ is in the 70s. Still a pretty small sample size.

So far...

Home opponents - Cards, Cubs, Cards, Dodgers
Away opponents - Reds, Angles, Dodgers

If that's the case in June it's worth noting, but having 3-4 really good series and 3-4 bad ones is whatever.

Agree with this. Don’t think we’re far enough into the season to draw any conclusions from it, but it’s definitely something worth keeping an eye on moving forward.

Here are the Brewers splits overall:

Yes, and that's thing. MLB does not want to be the arbiter of who can say what and when. So, just a blanket suspension for anybody that uses it or other slurs.

I really don't get the controversy here.



Literally was crying afterwards when the medical staff was checking on him.


Ugh, that's awful. Wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

Yelich is an interesting case study this year.

Along with his home/road splits, Yelich has hit 12HRs at home against 2 teams ... the Cardinals (8HRS) and Dodgers (4HRs).
Brewers' Christian Yelich won't stop hitting home runs, under certain conditions

This year, Yelich is also killing righties (10HRs / .385 Avg.) vs. lefties (3HRs / .208 Avg)

That said, in 2018, Yelich's home/road splits and right/lefty splits were fairly even with more power at home and vs. right handers ... which was nothing out of the ordinary.

As for the possibility of something nefarious, let's not forget Miami is the pharmaceutical capital of the world. :) If Yelich wasn't doing it in Miami, it's highly doubtful he found something on the street corner of Cheeseland. Speaking of Ryan Braun ... he also is from Miami (University). Miami's former baseball strength and conditioning coach was closely affiliated with Anthony Bosch. Remember ARod is also closely affiliated with the University of Miami baseball program. If you want to grow a third eye in Miami, they have the drugs to do it.
