From 2015-2019, the BABIP for all of baseball on an annual basis ranged from .296 (’18) to .300 (’16 & ’17.) But in 2020 it dipped to .292 for the year. It was easy to dismiss that, as it was only a 60-game season. However, it was .292 again in 2021. Now, here in the [...]
The Braves broke open a scoreless tie with a seven-run sixth inning and they sent the Mets to a 9-2 loss Wednesday afternoon. The win gave the Braves a split of the four-game series and marked the first time this year the Mets didn’t win a series. Tylor Megill started off throwing five scoreless innings [...]

Shortly before the game, it was announced that Buck Showalter was going to serve a one-game suspension for Yoan Lopez’ alleged throws at Kyle Schwarber. This [...]
Contrary to popular belief, I’m not a heartless bastard. The memory of me fighting an uphill battle to keep the site from being nothing but a cesspool of complaining – one that was lost and caused me to temporarily suspend the site – lives on. There are Robinson Cano supporters out there and I can’t [...]
We shouldn’t be in this position right now. The Mets are faced with a decision on which hitter to cut from their roster. If a non-biased person was given the specifics, there’s little doubt that Robinson Cano would be cut. He’s old, he can’t hit for power, he has next to no defensive value and [...]
