WELP. Gibson ripped off of yet another "win"

Well, that worked out well for Gibson.  AGAIN.

Sorry Kyle , from Ryan

f--uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuudddddddgggggggggge

Well that went about as poorly as possible.

I won't go back and look at the innings or appearances, but it seems like Pressley appears in every game. And isn't really bad at all.... But can one go to the well too often.

Gibson has got to tell Molitor to take a hike next time.

Time to let GIbson win/lose a game on his own.  

They often appeared in the same inning.

Will there be a quickening?

 

There can be only one.

Didn't Pressley pitch last night?

Strat-O-Matic Report - Top of the 6th

 

Gonzalez grounds out.

Lindor doubles.

-- Taylor Rogers now pitching -- 

Brantley doubles, Lindor scores (6-1).

Ramirez strikes out.

Encarnacion singles, Brantley to 3rd.

Kipnis doubles, Branley scores, Encarnacion to 3rd (7-1).

-- Tyler Duffey  pitching --

Gomes strikes out.

 

Yikes... we're down 7-1 and the real team is losing too. Ugh.

Inexcusable pitching effort by Pressley.

Pitches 26,27,28,30,2, and 3. 6 out of last 8 games?

I wish I could look up Pressly's stats when pitching in a close game.  I've only seen him be effective when the game is out of reach.  He's a choker.

LaMarre's starting to hit the ball a lot better the past few days... I like having him out there over Grossman, both for his defense and bat.

According to his stats, he's pretty good. 

 

However, his WHIP and BB per 9 are not good. As we just found out.

And I'n not sure I buy the strand rate, because I seem to recall more than a few times he's not gotten the job done. Unless the stat is based on stranding his own runners versus inherited runners.

Let's take a look at the splits:

 

With RISP, batters hit .746 OPS (.744 OPS with men on) against Pressly compared to a career .697 OPS.

Rosario strikes out.

Sano strikes out.

Morrison doubles to right.

Escobar strikes out.

 

(Cleveland leads 7-1.)

 

 

 

 

According to his stats, he's pretty good. 

 

 

 

How do you look up his stats when pitching in a game decided by 2 runs or less (when he enters)?

Ah, found it here:

If I'm reading it correctly, Ryan has an abysmal 31% inherited runners strand rate.

John Ryan Murphy is batting .278 and has 8 homeruns this year!

 

Hicks and Murphy both did better went they left the Twins.

Whoever is manning the camera that covers left field is drunk as hell today.

 

How do you look up his stats when pitching in a game decided by 2 runs or less (when he enters)?

No idea.

 

However, if you look at the second link I provided, Ryan has an abysmal inherited runner strand rate.

 

Didn't Pressley pitch last night?

I believe he's pitched in every game this season.

good job, Mr. Wilson!

 

How do you look up his stats when pitching in a game decided by 2 runs or less (when he enters)?

I found it on Baseball Reference (look at Pressly's splits): 

 

Within 2 Runs: .276/.338/.430 (.768 OPS)

Within 1 Run: ..287/.361/.468 (.828 OPS)

 

Yes, he is noticeably worse with a small lead.

Good recovery by Rogers with a big assist by Wilson.

Yes

I think Molitor manages by putting players in and expecting them to succeed rather than putting players in position to succeed.

 

 

Top of the order up. Let's go get us some points!
