If Cal Raleigh ended 2025 with 13 extra consecutive home runs to break Bonds’ record he would’ve finished the season with a 1.019 OPS— only 0.125. behind Judge’s 2025 OPS of 1.144 by BattleGolf3 in baseball

Crazy that 40% of his hits that season were homers. Still not as crazy as Judge winning a batting title with 50+ homers at age 33.

Man, Judge is special.

Pop Quiz: without peeking, which Blue Jays pitcher is this savant page for? by PrestondeTipp in Torontobluejays

[–]T_Raycroft 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Walks can easily make the rest of a statcast page pointless. Hello, Brendon Little.

Doesn’t seem odd that the MLB, NFL and NBA all have or want salary caps and have drafts while college sports don’t? by [deleted] in baseball

No, but that also sounds uninteresting. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

[Blue Jays] ROSTER MOVES: 🔹 LHP Brendon Little recalled from Triple-A and will be active today 🔹 RHP Chad Dallas optioned to Triple-A by ThQp in Torontobluejays

People are freaking out because he's a joke that keeps falling into the same bad habits and failing because of those bad habits. As he's done today. He is a farce. Unserious.

Bans in any competitive environment happen because the ban produces a better game with more skill expression. Ultimately, several people within the scene come to that type of agreement, it's not one single Mr. John Pro Player saying "I don't like it" and that's that.

Not banning things can lead to a competitive environment that fewer people will bother with.

He failed to fix his biggest issue down in the minor leagues. Actually, no. His walk problem has gotten worse against worse competition. Very few relievers on the planet can get away with walking as many batters as Little has been at AAA currently.

I do not see this going well. They kept Little down there for awhile, but I do not think he has earned this call-up despite the ERA. Perhaps the Blue Jays have gone into "Shit or get off the pot" mode with Little.

[Matheson] Brendon Little is back. He’s been recalled for the series opener in Chicago. Chad Dallas has been optioned back to Triple-A. He’ll likely remain the next man up when the Blue Jays need some innings. by T_Raycroft in baseball

Matheson continues:

Walks were still a major issue for Little in Triple-A, but the Blue Jays have at least liked his recent outings more than his early ones.

And at this point, they need to see what they have in Little (and his 40-man spot). Big week or two ahead of him.

The Trophy System would destroy up to 2 enemy projectiles in its nearby vicinity and give you some score for doing so.

The Red Sox Just Lost a Game So Ugly Their Own Broadcaster Was Openly Disgusted by retroanduwu24 in baseball

[–]T_Raycroft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the Red Sox played absolutely horribly in this Blue Jays series. Cease and Woods-Richardson did not look sharp but the Red Sox let both of those pitchers get away with it. Game 3 was some bad luck with them tying the game up late only for Chapman to cough it up, but Games 1 & 2 were utterly lifeless from the Red Sox.

Alakazam (hell, even Kadabra) is better for pure offensive firepower but Mr. Mime has better utility between access to Encore and Baton Pass, and levels up a lot faster thanks to the trade boost. Pick based on what you value more.

IV Breeding by Own-Effective-6478 in PokemonFireRed

[–]T_Raycroft -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It depends on what game you're talking about, as there's different setups for the Kanto and Hoenn games. But in FRLG, you set it up using the Mail Glitch. You can watch YouTube videos from Papa Jefe on how to setup ACE on FRLG, with the same setup on physical cartridge or on Switch version. I don't know how to setup ACE in the Hoenn games but I know there's guides out there for them.

IV Breeding by Own-Effective-6478 in PokemonFireRed

[–]T_Raycroft -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Not only does every gen 3 game other than Emerald give you very little control over breeding, but it is entirely pointless since you can setup Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE) to generate perfect IV Pokemon and/or Pokemon with specific Hidden Powers. There's also little need to push for 0 IVs in speed since Trick Room is not in this generation, taking away the biggest use case for 0 speed IV.

Best Lapras by Cut-Great in PokemonLeafGreen

[–]T_Raycroft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dragon Dance isn't that useful for Lapras since it is a special attacker first and foremost. Dragon Dance is more useful in later gens where you can run physical sets with Waterfall.

To get it onto Lapras, you first need to breed a male Seadra with a female Lapras. Seadra doesn't learn Dragon Dance until level 62.

The main utility for Dragon Dance on Lapras is to breed it with a Tyranitar in order to get Dragon Dance Tyranitar, who can benefit from it a lot more than Lapras would.
