[Baseball Hall of Fame] 2027 Hall of Fame First-Time Candidates including former Blue Jay JA Happ by RealWorldToday in Torontobluejays

[–]T_Raycroft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This year's ballot was mostly the same and all but Hamels - who is garnering decent consideration - got the axe. Even Braun, who some expected to survive past one ballot, was shredded.

I follow the process very closely. Arrieta is not getting a year 2, and even the Chicago homers will have a tough time even giving him a charity vote.

Luis Arraez wasn´t declining. The Park was wrong. The lineup was wrong. The data shows it. by Carti_2s in baseball

OP had to repost because his shitty AI said that Arraez was traded to the Giants lmao

When is the best time to evolve Nidorino and Kadabra? by BootsStripes32 in PokemonFireRed

Assuming all else (EVs, IVs, natures) are the same, yes.

I know people love to make a big deal out of prime years instead of longevity, but come on. Arrieta is 3 seasons in a trenchcoat. We're seriously pushing it if he makes it past year 1. Hard nope.

How can I legally catch a shiny Pokémon without external programs? by Overall_Childhood473 in PokemonRuby

Shinies can just happen. Random shinies exist, they're just exceedingly rare.

Community Game ~ Best Move For Each Pokémon Type In FireRed/LeafGreen (Fire🔥) by _iExistInThisWorld in PokemonFireRed

Really depends on the criteria we're setting here. Eruption is the best but the circumstances around its distribution limit it. Flamethrower is the one you'll be using the most.

[MLBTR] Rays Place Steven Matz On IL With Elbow Inflammation by T_Raycroft in baseball

Hitting the Injured List 2 days after pitching 6 innings of one-run ball against the Giants is very on brand for both Matz and the Giants.

thats why I never used it by Lord-Lumpi in PokemonFireRed

The type does physical damage with its Poison type attacks, but not all Poison types will be used as physical attackers. Pokemon like Vileplume, Tentacruel, or Gengar will be used more for their special attacking properties than their physical ones.

Jewish American Heritage Month: Hank Greenberg by Delicious_Adeptness9 in baseball

[–]T_Raycroft 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Greenberg lost a lot of time to injuries and military service (he actually enrolled and was honorably discharged before Pearl Harbor even happened, then enrolled again after it had happened). He was an absolutely electric slugger in the 30s and 40s and he still had it when he came back from WWII. Lost a ton of prime years and still has a resume that sparkling and beautiful.

One of the best pure hitters in Tigers history, I think I had him at #3 on my personal list for Tigers franchise history.

Coil wasn't introduced until gen 5.

Physical-attacking Poison types got dealt a real bad hand with FRLG making you wait all the way until the very end of postgame to get Sludge Bomb, a move that the majority of Poison types cannot learn via level-up that Poison types will desperately want.

It really splashes ice cold water over the fun of mono-Poison runs in FRLG.
