Is this about Bass again? He's free to say what he wants and so are fans. Anyone who supports freedom of speech should be happy about this.

I mean it isn't theoretical. It is based off of stuff that has happened. It just is heavily weighted to things that are 100% in control of the pitcher(Walks,K's HR's). It isn't like a projection it is based off of actual performance on the field, you are just going to see a separation in the two WAR's at times as in someone like Gausman last year who was incredibly unlucky. Manoah was kind of the opposite last season. I think both sides have their uses in the end. I think fWAR is inherently better at telling you how dominate a pitcher was over a long period of time, while it does have a blindspot for pitchers that know how to manage contact. I do think fWAR is better as a tool for future success then bWAR, like if you are dominating guys and racking up K's limiting walks and HR's that is inherently a good recipe for long term success on the mound.

Gausman, wow! Is he actually getting even better? Or just not as unlucky as last year?

Those batter violations really keep the game moving, don't they? And the pitch count down hehe.
I didn't expect Jose Abreu to be this bad.
When Houston acquired him i was thinking "oh good they somehow upgraded Gurriel on the cheap"
Turns out he's somehow worse than Gurriel was in 2022 while the latter went back to being a productive hitter in Miami.

Bassitt is f***ing amazing
Imagine having 2 cy young candidates and 2 others having great seasons and not be in a playoff spot

I for one welcome the age of lanky supermen hitting the ball 200 mph even on simple shit like singles between him and Oneil
Springer with another terrible ab
Offense is so bad. Going to cost this team another season
If it wasn’t for the pitching this team might be 10-40

Gausman and Bassitt have been borderline lights out in the last month or so and both have re energized the BP in this series after that Manoah fiasco in game 1.

I think I can hear shaner chanting MVP
Ohhh yeah, I forgot about Berrios. Even Kikuchi has been steady for the most part.
LMFAO
Man, his first hit was a double yesterday and it was chest high. Just absolutely crushed.

Yordan made Bassitt work! About 15% of his pitches thrown through 6.1 came in that AB lol.

And just got a triple on his next AB. I think the Reds are officially my NL team. I am all aboard the Elly hype train.
