It's so stupid that it will probably work, and snit will be labeled a baseball genius by most our fansOf course Verdugo is leading off.
Last year happened, but even with last season, verdugo still has a .334 OBP for his career vs rhp. In 2023, he was .329 obp with a 109 wrc+ vs rhp. Let's just hope last year was a blip.It's so stupid that it will probably work, and snit will be labeled a baseball genius by most our fans
You're preaching to the choir, but the milb numbers may be a little better than they indicate...Verdugo posted a .290 OBP in 2024. He posted a .303 OBP in 33 AAA PAs this season.
In no multiverse should he be leading off for a contending team.
Wild.Maybe Ozzie should lead off right now.
Ozzie vs rhp this season...
