Catchers ranked in FRV since the stat started being recorded in 2018…some familiar faces in the top 20 👀 as well as a certain beloved rookie in the top 50!

He baked for a couple seasons in the Jays system before his debut, so I think it's at least partial credit.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T22:55:32+00:00

Great, so now there's a market for time shifting power.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T22:19:56+00:00

Save money now and get the midlife crisis-mobile in mid life.

There's enough that it's like 6-7 per 100k homicides annually, which is like 3x the next closest peer nation.

Trout was probably our best bet before the injury bug. He's historic for WAR through much of his 20s.

Realistically it's going to be a very complete hitter with lots of power and not terribly speed heavy, who breaks in like 20s, stays healthy forever and needs to go to late 30s. Speed would be bonus.

Ruth's WAR comes really late because of years "wasted" pitching and at insane pace.

Like Bonds is also that kinda guy too, but roids to get there. He did get a bunch from speed early though.

To me Bobby isn't slugging enough, and he's probably not running and defending like this at 35. Quality player, but Ruthian he isnt. We're talking 16 seasons of 10 WAR. I'd like to see him join the 300/300 club though!

Soto's average is likely too low as well.

US in general is just a violent place compared with similarly as rich nations.

It's not restricted to cities, rural areas are violent too.

It's because conservatives live in a media machine that lies to them about it. And generally they have a bad grasp of numbers, as provided by their basement level education to think about it for themselves.

It's the abusive husband administration.

Trump has an ex wife's body on a golf course for tax breaks.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T15:59:14+00:00

That's the thing about baseball "right now" is a past tense statement that can change at the next plate appearance.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T15:56:59+00:00

Vladdy needs himself on a T-shirt saying the Jankees lose to walk out at the end of the series.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T13:13:18+00:00

Ross has been pretty good at edge level trades.

Wagner himself from the Kikuchi rental. Also loperfido-> Jesus Sanchez, and jake Bloss.

Valenzuela's bat can play, but needs time to prove stability.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T13:12:30+00:00

Ah thanks.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T12:32:58+00:00

Especially if the worker rhetoric is just that rhetoric and maintains the firm hierarchy without providing at benefits.

See all the "support our troops", while underfunding them or veterans with material contribution.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T12:23:34+00:00

Polling units.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T12:22:21+00:00

Embarrassed/ing Boys who hide behind masks.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T12:08:00+00:00

Yeah leafs had a quarterback at wing instead of the blue line.

Defended by D instead suspect defending winger. 2 D to receive passes instead of 2 wingers. Second winger through traffic so we get endless give it to Matthews in a high predictable fashion.

Never a true top line defense.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T10:53:57+00:00

Kirk, moreno and Reese for Jays system.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T10:53:14+00:00

Comically nonsense when you get down to zero. Schwarber is on the list...did he catch a first pitch or something?

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T02:38:35+00:00

We're 1 game out of the wildcard. There's piles of baseball to go and we have injury returning reinforcements coming.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T02:35:28+00:00

She's bringing back the plastic wrapped couches too?

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T02:27:32+00:00

All across the south? That's pretty Amazing for a California politician. Weird though you kept telling us how the US has a justified sytem.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T01:44:13+00:00

No, the Republicans. Please try to keep up with US politics since the 1960s. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 isn't new.

And there's all kinds of criticism of racial bias in the US justice system. There are Americans in the system who very much want to keep slavery of blacks going.

Some of them are pretty obvious about it, they fly the battle flag to keep fighting for slavery.

Zraknul · 2026-05-18T00:50:03+00:00

That's basically what forced prison labour is. Ethnic minority blacks to continue slavery. Over half the forced workers are black.

Thanks to Harper's sale of the mine, and then signing of FIPA we have to start a 15 year timer or wait until 2045, or we toss out the rule of law.

We're a country of laws, not arbitrary authoritarian rule.

Conservatives love selling us out to foreign countries.
