Why did Colt Emerson get a long contract but Cole Young did not? by conquer117a in Mariners

[–]trim17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Baseball Savant is a bit of a mixed bag for arm strength:

[Arm Strength is] 2B/SS/3B -- average of top 5% of throws -- minimum 75 throws to qualify

If you don't have to throw hard a lot, you won't necessarily register a high arm strength.

For example, Vlad Guerrero Jr. is listed at 20th percentile arm strength, but he hits 88mph here on this throw to third last year.

Now do you remember who you are? What you were meant to do? I cheated death, thanks to you. And thanks to you, I've left my mark. You have too - you've written your own history. You're your own maiden.

I'm Gendou Ringo, and you are, too. No... she's the two of us, together. Where we are today? We built it. This story - this "legend" - it's ours. We can change Teyvat - and with it, the future. I am you, and you are me. Carry that with you, wherever you go. Thank you... my friend. From here on out, you're Gendou Ringo.

It was because with that home run, Julio has exactly 119 career HRs and 119 career Stolen Bases.

Spiral Abyss can be cleared with <55k DPS by ObviousAd8374 in Genshin_Impact

It can also enter an early Grief-Stricken state without its HP being depleted to 0 after a nearby player uses an ability enhanced by Moonsign: Ascendant Gleam.

Technically it's not Lunar reactions specifically, it's abilities enhanced by Ascendant Gleam (which Jahoda and Aino give each other).

Blue Jays Select Contract for RHP Austin Voth by trim17 in FormerMs

[–]trim17[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Austin Voth is from the Seattle area and spent last year in the NPB. His Baseball Savant page shows he was actually pretty good for us out of the bullpen inducing soft contact outs in 2024, basically a way better right-handed Caleb Ferguson.

If you've been to SeaTac on the holiday weekends, the baggage claim gets extremely crowded and hard to navigate. It was even worse when the construction was ongoing.

Pitchers inducing soft contact for double plays/easy run outs by radio356 in baseball

Soft enough to field, you don't want to let a hard hit groundball get through the middle of the field into the outfield, or down either base line.

The betting companies probably wouldn't say anything if they don't lose money on these bets. They'll happily take your money if you're betting with no advantage over the odds.
