I'd much rather see Maile at this point. I don't know what Hedges has left in his playing career. I could see him making a quick transition to being a coach in some capacity though. I wonder if he would consider if offered in 2023.FWIW - Austin Hedges has gone ice cold at the dish the last couple of weeks, hitless since Sept. 12th. Not unexpected or even that alarming, but between him and Maile, they really were delivering out of the 8th hole after the trade deadline. A solid and unexpected improvement.
Just keep doing what we're doing, but if either one of them (and Maile is showing more life at the plate for now IMO) gets "hot", they move into the primary side of a job share. Also I think our starting pitchers can call a shot here if they want.
Boy you crazy.People are very much underrating that 2016 Red Sox because it's been 6 years + the Indians took care of them quickly. Same with the Blue Jays. I'd take the 2016 Red Sox over the 2022 Yankees and those Blue Jays over any of the 2022 Wild Card teams.

I wasn't super clear about it, but yes, this is closer to what I mean. Put the ball in play, aggressive running, pressure on the defense, etc.Or am I misinterpreting this and you mean that if you get, for example, a leadoff double in a close playoff game, you can get him over and get him in?
Nah, he is just sort of glad to see ya..You have a mouse in your pocket?
This.I keep hearing people say this about our team.
Why do you feel that low-power, high OBP means more consistent scoring of runs?

Because, to me, power scores more consistently while our lineup scores in bunches. The difference between us scoring 0 runs and 1 run is large--it takes multiple hits in an inning to get there. But once you do, each additional hit plates about one additional run.
Is it possible he is paranoid schizophrenic?"I felt betrayed, I felt set up, I felt threatened"
And of course it's behind a pay wall
On September 5th, the Guardians were 68-64. The Twins and White Sox had nearly identical records at 68-67 and 68-65.
In the 20 games since, the Guardians improved their record to 85-67, burying the Twins and White Sox in the process and are about to capture the division title with a week and a half to go.
That’s incredibly impressive.
