There are many, many examples of this - Tom’s is a great one.
Not only is white supremacy morally repugnant but it’s also historically ignorant and objectively wrong.

Not in a position to do a deep dive, but...
Not sure how interested the #Yankees are in Bichette, but I'm confident most NYY fans will be disappointed. Certainly, an upside (above average hitter who's been remarkably consistent) but...
His days at SS are numbered if not already over.

Watching game 5, 2000 World Series. Al Leiter, sitting on 141 pitches, last two batters BB and line single.
Well at least he was given a chance to “gut it out” lol…

Mike Trout has been held together by duct tape for a few years and just had the worst season of his career by a mile. And he was still harder to get out than Bo Bichette in 2025.
Just some perspective on both players.

“Yeah man, can’t vote ARod and Manny because PEDs but Pettitte is a ‘yes’ for me” has always been the funniest HOF take.

There are 7 players with +3000 hits and +500 HR and only 3 of them are in the HOF (since Cabrera and Pujols aren't yet eligible). Also just realized none of them are white

Ben Rice had a better xwOBA than Cal Raleigh's wOBA and its not particularly close.

Spoiler alert: When facing LHP, Austin Hays and Rob Refsnyder were essentially Juan Soto vs all pitching in '25. Both are good under the radar fits for this roster and the #Yankees should get one of them.

I plan on circling back, but FWIW: Mike Trout had his worst more or less full season in his career by miles. And his OBP was the same as Cal Raleigh's.
The gap between Judge and Raleigh (not just OBP - everything) offensively was MASSIVE and I'm so glad just enough people realized that.

This, this, this…
Cal Raleigh had an exceptional year. Good for MVP in a great many seasons. In my view, this wasn't particularly close though. Judge is doing absolute freak shit at the plate, but he's been doing it so consistently that it doesn't feel that crazy anymore. Which is nuts!

Reminder that nobody would know who Joe Maddon is if he didn’t work for, and manage rosters assembled by Andrew Friedman and Theo Epstein - and Maddon bashed “analytics” when fired by LAA. We’re not talking about a particularly bright guy here.

When you get past all the noise, here’s the signal: DePodesta is a good dude, had a big influence on MLB, and got a raw deal with LAD in the before times. This is a good thing.
