OSS: Javy Baez doing Jazy Baez things.
Three up:
- Javy Baez continues to do it all. In this game he hit his 25th HR of the year to give the Cubs the lead in the sixth, then doubled in an insurance run in the eighth. He also made a spectacular diving play at third base, snagging a liner right on the foul line and throwing the batter out at first from basically shallow LF. I thought the Javy for MVP talk that started percolating last week was dumb, but now I’ve moved to just kind of dumb. 4.1 fWAR doesn’t exactly scream MVP to me, but it’s good enough for third in the NL among position players, and I don’t think any of the pitchers have a shot at crossing over this year. Maybe it’s not as ridiculous as it seems. He’s been the best player on the best team in the NL.
- Cole Hamels had another solid start, though not as strikeout-y as his last one. In his two Cubs starts combined, he has 11 IP, 10 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 3 BB, 11 SO. Considering the bar most of us had set for him after the acquisition was merely better-than-Chatwood, that looks pretty good indeed.
- Ben Zobrist had a solid night against his former team, hitting a triple and an infield single and scoring a run on a wild pitch.
Three down:
- The Cubs let their best chance to blow this one wide open slip away in the fifth, when they had the bases loaded with just one out. However Royals pitcher Jacob Junis (who I kept calling Jake Jortles in my head) got Zobrist and Heyward to ground out and escaped the Cubs threat.
- Willson ran into another out on the basepaths on this one. The Cubs are an aggressive baserunning team and definitely come out ahead on balance, but it’s been touch to see some of the TOOTBLANs over the past week or so.
- Ian Happ came away with a golden sombrero in this one.
Next up: Monty takes on RHP Brad Keller at 7:15 PM CT. Keller is a swingman with a low strikeout rate that keeps the ball on the ground.

He should’ve screamed at Happ, too.

According to Fangraphs, his two game scores rank as his 3rd and 5th best starts of the season.
dmick89Quote Reply
On the Javy MVP talk and fWAR — I think his UZR this season is basically bullshit in measuring his defensive impact. He (and this goes for Heyward too) had a few misplays early in the season that seem to be weighted too heavily. And on top of that, there is no accounting for tagging and throwing guys out at the plate for infielders — that play a few days ago where he cut down the runner at the plate counts the same as him throwing to first. Some Contreras’ defense must be aided by the Javy tag. And his infield flexibility is totally discounted.
He is third for position players in rWAR at 4.8, behind LoCain and Carpenter, and somehow leads the NL in oWAR despite never walking (though that must be post-positional adjustment — Carpenter has been Trout for a couple months now). With 50 games to play, Javy has been at least 5 WAR in my humble opinion, which puts him on pace for 7+ WAR. And that possible .300 ISO is pretty impressive from a superutility infielder. I don’t honestly think he’ll sustain it but he keeps sustaining it, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
MVP then? Hell no in the AL. But in the NL? The Cards are a dumpster fire and if they remain a trash heap, all else being equal, Javy’s value to the Cubs has been extraordinary, particularly accounting for the injuries and the baserunners/groundball pitching. I could make the case for Cain and Yelich and Arenado and Freeman because the Brewers and Rockies and Braves are still in contention, but I doubt any of those teams make it over the Dodgers and Nationals when all is said and done.
(There is the possibility that Carpenter carries the Cards to the playoffs, in which case he probably should be the MVP given the dumpster fire. But I try not to think of such things.)
All told, Javy has been the funnest player in baseball to watch in all facets — and given that walks are boring, his biggest flaw is bent toward excitement (though I do wish he were on the basepaths more). It is astonishing. Javy Baez, MVP, maybe. I would put it at a little less than a coin flip if the season ended now. Regardless, I think we need a Most Exciting Player award, because this is phenomenal to watch.

Bote’s been great, but I’m skeptical about him. Adding Donaldson would make me feel better about this team’s chances. And I know how important my level of optimism is to the front office.
RynoQuote Reply
Ryno,
I agree, but it’s a tougher call when faced with deciding between the two. I don’t think they’re sending LaStella down or shrinking the bullpen, so Bote would almost certainly head to AAA if they made that trade. The quandary fills me with skepticism all around.

This is such a stupid comment for so many reasons, but if they did find another way to protest, Trump would complain just as loudly. If all the NFL players who protest gathered privately in one of their homes and shared pictures of said protest on social media, Trump would flip out.

RynoQuote Reply
Anytime I hear someone complain about people protesting during the anthem in a peaceful way (a way that doesn’t even disrupt the flow of events!), all I hear is that person saying “I don’t like black people and think they should know their place and shut up.”
Come to think of it, that applies to a lot of peaceful protests.
PerkinsQuote Reply

Especially when those same people talk or wear hats or stand without pride during the anthem.
During the anthem at Dallas Stars games, the fans all yell STARS when the word is sung during the song. It’s clearly not about “respecting the anthem” for many people.
What bothers me most is that they’re referred to as “anthem protests” pretty routinely now. Way to completely miss the point/change the narrative and perpetuate the problem.

I wouldn’t think “black people shouldn’t get murdered by police with impunity” would be a controversial stance, but here we are. Over the last few years, I’ve really grown to loathe a lot of Americans.

Yeah, he’s basically the scorpion in that old parable. There were decades worth of data points indicating that he’s a piece of shit, even before the election.
I do blame both the people for whom his being a piece of shit was a feature, rather than a bug (they’re as big or bigger pieces of shit), and the people who knew he’s a piece of shit but saw an opportunity. I blame them and wish them ill.
PerkinsQuote Reply
See ya, guys!
RynoQuote Reply
Perkins,
That’s another fascinating thing about this. Do people argue against the method of protest because there’s not much of an argument against the subject of it? Or do people really short circuit on the “anthem protest” and stop listening?
RynoQuote Reply

I think there are two types of people who voted for Trump. And I don’t know which is worse…

Yeah, that’s all Trump is really doing. This new story today about how he may have allegedly used the N-word on The Apprentice is pointless. I’m sure he did. He’s a racist piece of shit, but it’s not going to matter to his supporters and that goes for the entire GOP and some Democrats who have been more than willing to help him pass legislation. It would be more damaging to Trump if a tape existed of him calling out racists and talking about how black people are equal to whites. That would be the beginning of the end for him.

But I was driving I40 through NC mountains during a ridiculous rainstorm while Kintzler was pitching so I may have missed a detail.
Pretty sure Kintzler didn’t suggest Soto was cheating, unlike Joe Simpson.
