+70 in run differential (the Orioles are +69). The Padres are 2 games under .500.

 

P = L (A + T + C)

Ok let’s see…

Performance equals attitude plus talent plus clubhouse multiplied by leadership?

Yes, although I've written that out many times. Not cryptic.  Not just Baseball either, works across Life.

 

There's a community of Baseball that thinks Talent = Performance except that continuously proves to not be so direct.

 

This is also the NCAA BB Tourney analogy, because there's no real way to achieve the 1vs16 type Talent disparity.

Nobody would know you've written it out because we dont read 90% of your posts.

I have to admit this made me lol

There is baseball, and occasionally there are other things of note

"Now OPS sucks.  Got it."

"Making his own olive brine is peak Mackus."

Their owner Peter Seidler passed away this morning. Not sure if he'd been ill or not, but might offer insight into why he was willing to have such a huge payroll despite market size,

The memorials for Peter Seidler should show other baseball owners that they aren't destined to be despised by their fans. All people want is a sincere effort. Try a little. Or a lot. Do it as a treat to yourself so you'll be remembered the same way

Peter was an amazing man and freaking loved the Padres. Badass two-time cancer survivor, talked about not wanting to take a bunch of money to the grave, and did as much work as anyone with the homeless population here in San Diego along with countless other community outreach efforts. Sucks he wasn't able to see a title in his lifetime, but it certainly wasn't for lack of trying on his part.
