With the NPB All-Star Break upon us, lets take a quick look at the stats leaderboards from across the Pacific

#

The first 3:40 of the 8 minute long official MLB highlight video for the Red Sox - A’s game was dedicated to the first inning. 1 run was scored.

#

ame thing on the position player side, where it’s tough to envision a trade pickup getting steady at-bats without some subtraction, even if Alejandro Kirk loses his DH reps and is relegated into a backup catcher role, as seems to be the trend

#

Once you get past Jay Jackson and the out-of-options Mitch White, for instance, who are you realistically pushing off the pitching staff? (We’ll get to Alek Manoah later).

More telling will be how he emerges from his next start in Seattle against the Mariners, with manager John Schneider beforehand making it clear he’s not in the rotation on a start-to-start basis.

#

Fangraphs has started their yearly trade value series. Kirk at #39, Vlad at #35 this year

#

Kirk was 27th last year and Vlad was 9th last year for comparison.

#

Nick Castellanos and Frank Schwindel had nearly identical stints with the Cubs (in 2019 and 2021, respectively)

#

After going 0-3 in tonight's game, Kolten Wong now has the lowest single season OPS among batters with at least 180 PAs in Mariners franchise history

#

Wong's OPS is now at 0.451 after 193 PAs this season.

Tonight he dropped below 1995 Felix Fermin (0.457) and currently claims the lowest single season OPS of any player who had at least 180 PAs for the Mariners in a season:

#

After Yesterday's Offensive outburst, there were 0 games with 10 or more runs by one team

#

There was always at least one team that did do since June 15th, which only had 10* games (20 chances).

#

Notable Starter Performances vs The Yankees Recently

#

Nico Hoerner hits a clutch grand slam to put the Cubs up 8-3 in the eighth

#

The Royals are yet to win 3 games in a row this season.

#

Does anybody know the latest in a season a team has gotten without winning 3 in a row? This has to be close to the record. They’ve lost at least 3 in a row 12 separate times this season, by the way.

#

The Angels sweep the Yankees in Anaheim

#

Justin Verlander vs the White Sox: 8 IP, 7 Ks, 3 H, 1 ER, 1 BB

#

Finishes his night with exactly 100 pitches

#

Carlos Rodón final line at LAA: 4.1 IP, 6 ER, 4 H, 5 BB, 3 K, 87 pitches — season ERA goes to 7.36

#

The Angels jumped on Rodón quickly with a pair of two-run homers in consecutive innings

#

#

Rondon getting hammered early against the Angels. 4 runs given away in the first two innings.. Taylor Ward and Luis Rengifo goes DEEP

#

Check in on your loved ones as Nick Castellanos sends a deep drive for his 14th homer of the year

#

Luis Rengifo cranks a two-run shot off Rodón to make it 4-0 Angels in the 2nd

#

White Sox have a “No Ketchup on Chicago Dogs!” Bell of Shame

#

At 38-57 the Nationals are .400 with 400 runs scored, 500 runs allowed

#

The Tigers are 23-19 when Eric Hasse starts at cather and 19-32 when he doesn't despite his suboptimal stats. Who are some other players (active or retired) that despite their below average stats, their team seems to win when they start

#

For the first time since April 2nd, the Rays do not hold sole possession of the AL East

#

Rangers rookie Alex Speas in his major league debut against the Rays: 1.2 IP, 0 H, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3K, Hold

#

Had his contract selected by the Rangers a few hours ago, and makes his debut in a 2-run game versus the team with the best record in the AL. Strikes out Wander Franco, Yandy Diaz, and Randy Arozarena, all 3 of Tampa's All Star reps.

#

The Baltimore Orioles have not been swept since May... Of 2022

#

i.e. since the beginning of the Adley Rutschman era.

#

With His Third Hitless AB, Austin Barnes has Attained the Mythical Sub .100 AVG!

#

He currently sits at 10/101 for the year for .099 batting average.

edit: As predicted, he got a hit off of noted scrub Felix Bautista to raise his average to .108!

#

Justin Turner opens the scoring with a 2-run home run to extend his hitting streak to 15 games!

#

Julio Urías final line vs Orioles: 5 IP | 8 H | 8 ER | 2 BB | 2 K

#

This is the first time Urías has given up 7 or more ER in his career and his season ERA is now 5.02.

MLB All-Stars answer "Are boneless wings real?"

#

Last night, every AL Central team singlehandedly outscored the entire AL East

#

The Orioles and Rays scored 3 in losses to the Dodgers and Rangers, the Yankees and Blue Jays only mustered 1 against the Angels and Padres, and the Red Sox were shut out by the Athletics.

For the Central, the Royals beat the Tigers 11-10, Cleveland and Minnesota scored 10 in victories against the Pirates and Mariners, and the White Sox matched that, though they still lost to the Mets 11-10

Though they weren't perfect, I still think it's safe to say that this is a clear sign of there being a new best division in baseball

#

Looks like almost ever draft pick is signed. Still waiting on Juaron Watts-Brown (i.redd.it)

#

George Springer has been great since the end of April

#

He doesn't get the most attention, but this turnaround has been phenomenal.

[AtoZSports] Titans First Look: Oilers throwback uniforms leaked

#

Justin Fields had more rushing yards than Christian McCaffrey last season, despite Fields playing in 2 fewer games and having 84 fewer rushing attempts.

#

RB production/value seems to be a hot topic this week. Fields was actually the 7th leading rusher in the NFL last season, ahead of McCaffrey despite playing in fewer games and...not playing a position known for rushing (OK, that might not apply to Bears' QBs...). Thought it was an interesting data point that a non-RB was able to break into the top 10 in rushing yards amidst the discussion of what RBs are worth.

Josh Harris: “A lot of stuff happened that was unfortunate. We’re focused on changing the culture. It’s about creating a management team that doesn’t look the same. It’s about zero tolerance on ethically challenged behavior…it’s all about culture. We’re very intentional about culture.”

The Red Sox defense has produced -42 OAA this year; only three teams have produced more negative OAA over a full season.

#

OAA is a counting stat. It’s only July. They’re on pace for -70 OAA, which would be the lowest ever recorded (since 2016) by a full 12 outs.

#

Aaron Judge is still 10th in oWAR this year despite not playing since June 3

#

Gunnar Henderson's incredible play at short last night

#

Freddie Freeman is on course for 59 doubles and 30 HRs this season. 59 doubles would be tied for 7th all time. No player has ever had a 60 double-30 HR season.

#

Nick Castellanos actually had 58 doubles and 27 HRs in 2019, making him one of the closest to ever accomplish the feat.

The Yankees have now played the same number of games with Aaron Judge (49) as without him (49) this year. They are 30-19 (.612) when Judge is in the lineup and 21-28 (.429) when he isn't.

#

With Judge in the lineup

244 runs scored or 5.0 RS/G
.612 winning percentage is a 99-win pace
Without Judge in the lineup

183 runs scored or 3.7 RS/G
.429 winning percentage is a 69-win pace
