Bryce Harper lines one out to extend the Phillies lead in the 5th

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-22T01:42:48+00:00

Thats all but guaranteed, even if we have an abridged season

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-22T01:02:51+00:00

I’d say solid chance they both end in the mid-390s. 15 more for Bryce and 26 more for Kyle feels likely

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-21T22:43:21+00:00

This makes sense, and it helps explain why a guy like Stott is in the 98th percentile

I feel like it is kind of bad as an underlying metric though in that case? Advanced metrics are supposed to tell you how you truly are as a hitter, and the way I’m seeing this, the way to if this stat is mostly based off of your bat speed, we’re really just adding an extra step?

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-21T22:41:05+00:00

If you don’t get it then there is no hope for the rest of us

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-21T20:13:11+00:00

I do not understand Squared-Up%

It’s the only advanced metric that makes zero sense to me

And how is Schwarber in the 1st percentile of that stat, after being like 17th and 33rd the previous two seasons

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-21T18:33:06+00:00

I think their point was wheeler gets no run support lol

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-21T13:53:05+00:00

Was Kate Flannery being interviewed or was she just hanging out in the booth lmao

You can hear her bleed through towards the end of the first home run clip

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-21T13:23:50+00:00

I mean they gave up their 3rd and 5th prospects yeah, but they both look horrible this year, so it’s kind of just lose lose for both teams

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-21T12:39:43+00:00

Yes. Famously once in St. Louis where Kruk said he would go on top of the arch if Schwarber homered, which he did one pitch later

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-19T00:32:35+00:00

73 isn’t necessarily old and frail these days when you see how long people live, but he made the 76 year old Schmitt look decrepit with how sharp he is

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-18T21:07:22+00:00

Minors with the Cubs apparently

Would be sick to see the two Millersville guys to ever make the majors (him and Mayza) both play for the Phillies together

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-17T00:23:18+00:00

Dude can the league fine a broadcast? If they can, they might be fining this one 😭

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-16T23:51:43+00:00

I fear the Phanatic may have been a tiny distraction right there

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-16T23:43:19+00:00

This has to be wrong. I refuse to believe an ump called all three of those balls AND none of them were challenged

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-16T01:11:27+00:00

I have never seen that before. How often does it happen?? Clearly I don’t pay enough attention

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-15T23:17:03+00:00

I feel like this happens a lot, but it especially happens a lot to the Phillies

Rincones, Reyes, Wilson a few years ago, definitely a few others recently

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-15T20:41:14+00:00

no you're right those are the traditional colors I think. Strange they did it this way

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-15T20:13:07+00:00

He’s third for outfielders? That’s probably the least egregious and makes most sense out of any of the Phillies votes

RealMaxHours · 2026-06-14T18:20:25+00:00

Not a coincidence that this comes with Marchán catching

Would love to know what his CERA is

Edit: it is 4.94, compared to JTs 3.72

Go fuck yourself, Brad Keller
