Doesn’t take pitch framing into account

I’m aware of that but I just generally don’t like fWAR and think it gives some bizarre results.

Belt looks like watching 2021 Jay Bruce.

It’s not my favourite for pitchers but with bwar missing a pretty key element to catching I’d be more inclined to using fWAR or even warp.

I also think voters robbed Martin of a couple GGs just because Perez was good at catching runners.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Manoah certainly didn't have his best stuff tonight, but found a way to get it done.

Finally Vladdy goes deep.

Home runs are for buds, that's what buds do!

[Seath The Scaleless]

Damn both balls were hit hard

 

[Blitzkrug]

Wasn't Manoah's best outing but he still went 7 and didn't allow a run so we take those.

That's a little closer to the guy we were expecting,

I am in love with Varsho

He went 7

Varsho is f***ing amazing

 

[Eyedea]

That was a terrible send home but at least Varsho scored lol

It felt like the cutoff man's brain lagged.

He might have actually got Varsho if he didn't just sit there for a brief second.

Manoah's ERA is going to go from 13.5 to 6.25 in one game

A 30+ WAR swing due to pitch framing seems fishy to me.

Like, that’s the same difference in career defensive value as between Devon White and Jose Canseco.

Varsho is the shit. He’s going to be a huge fan favourite.

Same with Perez. Not sure why he was standing up when he could've crouched with a lower target and had a shot at the tag. Just bad fielding all around

Manoah did better this time around.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Varsho is the shit.

historically not a guy who bats for average
27 dingers last year is nice.

I don’t think it’s that shocking since Molina and Perez are basically the two extremes for the stat. I’d put a greater emphasis on framing than any other aspect to catching that can be quantified (obviously game calling is important). Since it’s been recording only Ryan Doumit (legit worst fielding numbers I’ve seen) and Suzuki are worse than Perez. Only reason Jose Molina isn’t 1st is because Martin, McCann, and Yadi played more.

And back to .500.

 

[EpochLink]

There you go, much better.

3-3 in this early season
