Ah I see. Well, it's certainly not the team of Maury Wills, the Davises, and Koufax/Drysdale, I will grant you that. Still, you have Shohei and his 50 steals, and Betts runs a little.

That is 2024 team. Hit and Run, bunting, stealing bases was the way they played ball. Now you have guys batting 1-9 trying to put the ball over the fence virtually every AB. Again I am speaking about a change in the trend. The game has changed which is fine. Nothing stays the same. I am simply saying I was more of a fan of the game the way it used to be played.

Well, it's driven by analytics as we all know. Roberts seems a bit of a gambler at heart so maybe if left to his devices he would do more of that, but he's probably constrained by a philosophy dictated by management.

Analytics is what it comes down to.
