Here's the gameday view of the overturned call against Lockridge. Pitch number 1 was initially called a ball, Salas challenged it pretty quickly.

Garrett Stallings hasn't pitched in the majors yet. Here's his pitch types from 2025 with Nashville. Heavy fastball load between his three varieties. His sinker has a little more arm side movement than his 4 seam and his cutter, slider, and curve look similar in horiz. movement.

Pie chart depicting pitch types for Garrett Stallings in 2025.
4-seam fastball: 30.5% (445 pitches)
Cutter: 17.8% (260)
Sinker: 14.6% (213)
Changeup: 14.2% (207)
Slider: 12.6% (184)
Curveball: 10.2% (149)

Tigers are rocking some new alternates this year. Navy one reminds me of Baltimore but still looks good

Two new Detroit Tiger uniforms. On the left is a dark navy uniform with script "Detroit" in orange letters with both navy and white trim. It also has orange numbers on the front. There are a pair of light gray pants laying on top of them, this is a road alternate. On the right is a bright orange uniform with the "Old English D" on the left chest in navy. A pair of white pants lay on top of this shirt because it is a home alternate. Both sets of pants have thin piping of navy, white, and orange down the side of the leg.

With MLB's postseason coming to an end and *everything* going on right now, felt like a good time to give some money to help others. 377 runs scored in the playoffs means $377 to a food pantry network here in Des Moines.

That’s one word for it

Screenshot from intervals.icu for a run the poster did this morning.
Distance: 8.24 km
Time: 45 minutes, 13 seconds
Training effect: 4.3, all Aerobic. This is a Garmin metric.
This was a tempo run from 80/20 running. Using pace zones, 5 minutes in zone 1, 5 minutes in zone 2, 28 minutes in zone 3, 5 minutes in zone 2, and 5 minutes in zone 1. The run was ended early in the last interval.

Maybe split stuff around 2021? There's a decent shift away from power based batting after 3 seasons slugging over .420 and is more contact based offense. Also the team became a pitching/defense first team with improved ERAs and FIPs starting in 2021

Winnipeg has both the Jets and Blue Bombers. There is probably some aviation in Winnipeg or something, right? Nope, looks like Jets 1.0 owner was a NY Jets fan. The Jets subreddit post featured this unfortunate comment as well. I believe that would be Sam Darnold

Screenshot from the Winnipeg jets subreddit. A since deleted account commented “This is the reason why I am also a NY Jets fan. And we finally got our franchise QB during this year’s draft. OH HAPPY DAY!”

Since the Brewers are still not active here, I'll share this. With 12 RBI, 6 XBH, 3 HR, 2 2B & 1 SB in his last three games, Jackson Chourio joined Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, & Shohei Ohtani as the only players in MLB history to hit those marks over a three game span. Also, don't forget Alt Text folks

Net success rate for the 18 Green Bay Packers games this season. A mixed bag of results. They weren't more successful and victorious until the Cardinals game. Both Vikings games they were more successful but lost both. The three standout performances make sense (SF, SEA, NO).

I converted to mph and like everyone expected, Sánchez leading the team in exit velocity (92.5 mph). Chourio with an average EV slightly higher than Yelich is intriguing. Very similar launch angles throughout the team, I don't think the game handles those appropriately yet

000

PJ Wessels @pjwessels.com · 16/03/2024

First OOTP 25 sim and at the trade deadline, here's Yelich's exit velocity and launch angle. The exit velocity is in kmph so that's 91.1 mph. Max of 113.1. Those are believable. But an average launch angle of 19.2 degrees?? Come on now...
