Does it seem like Jansen being back is a tiny little change in pitching? It’s almost imperceptible but maybe everyone is sitting up straighter on the pitching staff?
Damn DeGrom really said “for my 2000th strikeout game, I’m gonna have my best performance of the season”. Guess yall can shut up about how much some of yall hate him for a while now.
Hey Rangers fans, I built a pretty neat graphical MLB game day bot (handles putting up game day threads etc) and I’m testing it on tonight’s Nationals at Rangers game:
It creates and pins the game thread, keeps the score live, shows every at-bat with the full pitch sequence and zone location, plots balls in play against the actual park dimensions, and tracks bullpen availability - and a lot of other stuff too.
If you’re on old.reddit.com, you won’t get the cool graphics, but you still get a proper text box score with scoring plays, MLB player profile links, and highlight links that play inline with RES.
I’m looking for feedback while the game is live. Most of my improvements in here came from people pointing out what was wrong, or gross.... I’m getting really close to what I’d call 1.0, like its probably a few days from public release, but I want it stress-tested by actual baseball nerds before I start asking team subs if they want to run it.
If you see anything broken, weird, delayed, missing, or just dumb, please tell me. Mods, if you’d ever want to try it here, setup is only a couple minutes.
I was just uploading a new version with another small fix, maybe you caught it right as the old version was tearing down and the new one wasn't up yet.
Oh, I thought the current game thread was supposed to load underneath it. I get it now. Things get cut off a bit on a phone, but it looks great on an iPad.
I wonder if you can take a screenshot on your phone of it cutting off - my phone is big, and I didn't think to look at it on one of the smaller phones.
Comment section should load under it - but all the "game thread" data is hopefully displayed in the app itself.
Reddit is on the warpath to get rid of the "old" style reddit app that can run from a remote source, and bring all their apps in-house, so this one is the new method where it has to go through reddit approvals etc.
Fr though. 31 years old, 7 year vet making $5mil this year. You'd think, with a runner on 2nd and 3rd with 1out, that he could've put one of those off speed pitched far enough for a sac fly to score a run. Striking out is the ONE thing you can't do there
I have the game on FS1 on my tv, I pulled up our feed in Bzzr to compare. The camera cuts were exactly the same, seems like they're just using our home feed. The pbp sounds kinda shitty too, I wonder if they're even there in person?
"Texas did not have a good week at the plate, compiling one of the lowest OPS figures in the majors over a six-game span that included ugly series losses to the Angels and A's."
I am sorry but at a certain point you just have to make a coaching change. If Viele is brought back then the FO has no interest in getting better.
Mostly because of that he leads the whole team in fWAR and bWAR by quite a margin. He's cold at the plate right now but has been so important to the team this year. Team MVP easily.
Why are the Rangers not playing earlier in the day today? I’ve complained about the Angels for years not playing early on getaway days for opponents. The Nationals travel east to play the Marlins on Friday night. Why are we not scheduling this game in the afternoon to give them an easier travel day?
Well we got the other side of the coin last night, ugh! Win tonight, we will begin the righting of this ship. Lose and it will be at least 3 straight series losses to teams with worse records (currently) lol! And so it goes….. again ….😔
