9/14/22 | Alec Mills shocked Cubs fans, baseball world with 2020 no-hitter. The Cubs were in the middle of what would be their last pennant race with the World Series core and I was in the midst of my last year of college. I drove home for the weekend, hoping for a bit of normalcy with my family away from the stresses of learning and the constant reminders that our world was turned upside down. We sat down together to watch the game on Sunday before I’d have to make the drive home. Source: https://cubbiescrib.com/2022/09/14/alec-mills-shoc... |

6/27/22 | Top 100 Starting Pitchers For 2022: Week 12. I've been staring at the sun, wondering when the hydrogen will be exhausted and if I have enough time for my crypto 401K to return to profitability before we all end up in a black hole. Maybe that'll put the current global milieu in perspective. Everything we own, all that we do, will turn to dust and ash as the sun enters a red giant phase and envelops the earth in its helium-fueled delirium. Maybe by then I'll understand the appeal of BTS. Maybe by then pitchers will be predictable.
In the meantime, we keep rolling -- you, me, the guy down the street. We roll week after week, thinking that we armchair astrologers of baseball have some sort of seance equipment that tells us -- accurately -- the future performance of a player. Yet every time I consult my crystal ball, all I hear is "variance." Same as it was last year, same as it is this year. People forget, Alec Mills and his 62MPH curveball was a top 20 pitcher through half of 2020. Last year's #1 SP, Max Scherzer, had a 3.00 ERA / near 4.00 FIP through the first month, followed by a lackluster July where he had a 5.32 ERA and FIP (take that regression!) and a Robbie Ray-esque 2.3 HR/9. Again, this is the #1SP of 2021 and future first ballot Hall of Famer Max Scherzer we're talking about. Being a good fantasy pitcher isn't about being good every day. Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt didn't become A-listers by being perfect in every single role. Amazon -- the company -- didn't make a profit for nearly a decade after its founding. Same thing goes for pitches -- being status quo is fine, but aces just tend to perform a bit better when they're successful. Which brings me to the ol' quote that should hang above your fantasy mantle: Being a good fantasy pitcher, is about being a better pitcher than other pitchers more often than not. If every pitcher in the league has a 4.50 ERA, the pitcher with a 4.49 ERA is the best in that category. Source: https://razzball.com/top-100-starting-pitchers-for... |
