Kojirou, number 7, right field, right-handed pitcher, left-handed batter, batting average .265, 17 home runs, 50 RBIs.
Is this performance from a good player?
A performance that is doing reasonably well.
Better than expected for a number 7.
In the anime, they are active and cool.
It’s pretty good, but…
For example, a performance that is not good enough to be chosen for the All-Star game or the national team.
Is the model Saburo?
Moderately
A batting average of .265 is probably pretty good.
This is quite an effort at number 7.
Scores that are threatening to your head.
The team that can place this guy at number 7 is amazing.
It seems like the star player is the face of the team.
In today’s professional baseball, it’s not the 7th spot.
In the current environment of low batting averages, the performance that ranks in the top 10 of the league for batting average and home runs.
Considering my age…
Last year’s Satotteru felt like this; the score was a bit higher, though.
They said it was about being the face of the team.
Is it Captain or Kana?
It’s a level that Lotte’s first team currently needs.
>>17With these results, you’re the unwavering fourth.
Even though there’s a player with leftover collaboration bento.
If this was the performance in modern baseball, I could be really optimistic about it.
The favorite seventh batter had a batting average of 2.09.
It seemed like it was depicted as something that would definitely happen when there’s a chance.
Is hitting 17 home runs and having 50 RBIs a good record?
>>22A quite good score overall.
If they are strong in chances, they are a better player than their face value.
It’s like it’s safe because I hit a home run.
Without knowing in which game the number of home runs and RBIs were recorded, it’s hard to say anything about those records.
With an average batting rate of .265, fans become quite excited thinking that he will hit more in crucial situations.
I can feel the era, somehow.
In this day and age, it’s almost impossible for someone who can hit 17 home runs to bat seventh on any team.
It looks like a group that should definitely be competing for the championship, yet they are in 4th place.
If he’s hitting 17 home runs, there’s a feeling that he should have a bit more batting average, but since he’s in the 7th spot, opportunities might not come around that often, so it could be seen that way…?
Motor Sands is a weak team.
That was the setting, right?
Last year’s Teruaki Sato.
.268 16 home runs 58 RBIs
Out of 50 RBIs, there are 17 home runs, so he must be hitting in some pretty good situations and exciting the crowd…
In the recent low-scoring environment, he is an exceptional seventh batter.
But around the time when this part was depicted in the original work, the environment shouldn’t have been this low.
The current HR championship race is at 11 home runs or so…
>>33It’s quite different to compare that since it’s the beginning of the season.
My wife’s CV is that of Wakatsuki’s wife.
>>34It’s NTR, isn’t it?
The Motor Suns have an All-Star caliber foreign player and a young shortstop who can hit over .300.
Back in 2021, it felt like this player was a strong hitter just missing out on the top 10 in HR count.
Well, to be honest, I don’t think the environment in 2020-2021 is really a reference point because it was just too special.
>>37There were quite a few players whose motivation dropped significantly during the no-audience matches.
PROFILE A veteran with a career total of 200 home runs. Became a free agent and joined the Motor Suns. Position is right field. Batting 7th. wRC+ 120. Husband of former female announcer Yuki Takino.
>>38The average value is 100 for an indicator of how much contribution was made to scoring.
>>40Well, he’s quite a good player then…
>>44By the way, last year’s Ohtani had 181, and the league-leading Judge had 218.
>>38If a WRC of +100 has an average of 120, it feels like they are 1.2 times better than an average batter.
>>38wRC+ (Weighted Runs Created Plus) measures a batter’s scoring ability per plate appearance, representing their run production in percentage compared to an average batter.A batter with a wRC+ of 100 is average, while a batter with a wRC+ of 150 produces 50% more runs than average.In other words, I’m scoring 20% more than the average.
>>38To put it simply, it’s comparing how much contribution can be made based on an average player’s ability set to +100 as a reference.
>>49In other words, Saburo is a player who is strong in critical moments and can contribute to victory?
He was someone who carried those expectations within the story as well.
>>68Yes
Having players like this in the 6th or 7th spot makes the lineup thicker and stronger.
>>70I guess they really dislike facing the opposing pitcher.
“Batting low means that the pitcher and defense are strong, so the batters can’t hit well and there aren’t many runs scored, right?”
>>39Indeed.
>>39“That is certainly a possibility, but there are also times when the ball is causing trouble.”
It depends on what era we’re considering, but if you can hit like this, I’d be happy to have you in the fifth spot.
This year, we might be able to make it to the climax series! Both players and fans are excited about it in the story.
If we think about the HR rankings this year, we could almost compare them by multiplying the current number of games by 2.75.
It should be around 5th to 8th place.
A total of 200 home runs is indeed an impressive number.
It’s amazing that someone is so active at an age when one is typically on a downward slope.
It’s surprising how much of a strong hitter they are, considering they are modeled after Lotte…
>>54It’s a home field where home runs are hard to come by due to the sea breeze.
Moreover, I’m also getting it right at night.
Except for the lemon request, she’s a stunning wife.
A wife who buys up all the unsold collaboration bento to make her husband look a little more popular.
>>58My wife eats multiple servings of this type of heavy bento.
I enjoy watching detailed discussions from knowledgeable people because I don’t know much about baseball.
If someone is hitting this well while still active, it might be someone like Tsutsugo.
I think a player of this level shouldn’t become a free agent.
>>61Since returning to Japan, Tsutsugo…
>>63Led the team to become the best in Japan…
The team that can place this guy at number 7 is too strong.
Well, the author is a Yokohama fan.
Below are the extracted characters from the image: “` 〜Gekokujou no Ramirez〜 Baystars Deconstruction New Book Iyaasaasa Kazuki Kamiteto With a dynamic song, cut into the power struggle, Kamizato! I★YOKO HAMA! “Common stories” written by a true Bay fan YOKOHAMA baseball manga artist! Written by Tatsuhiro Suga and Makoto Tomokane, Illustrated by Daijiro Muramatsu “`
>>65He is from the Hodogaya High School baseball team in Kanagawa, so that’s not really strange.
Since it’s in the Kanto region, it seems like you’d go to various stadiums.
>>71I was really obsessed with it…
The lineup actually seems pretty strong, doesn’t it, Motor Sons?
The pitcher seems to always be Mitsui throwing.
It may seem unsatisfactory, but…
Having a total of 100 home runs is definitely impressive for a player.
Even though it’s a dedicated machine, there are still gods involved.
It seems that the pitcher finally started to gain some depth after the manager change.
Having become a free agent once, this performance is amazing; you could say it’s a comeback.
Tsutsugo’s goal is to first raise his batting average to .200, so he can’t be compared to Kojiro-san.
The performance of a strong hitter in modern NPB.
That foreign player number 4 is amazing.
Even though he’s a pervert who is happy watching the beer vendor…
>>77I was considering returning home because I couldn’t adapt to Japan, but I guess that’s what being a former Major League player is all about.
I somehow fell in love at first sight with the beer seller and felt fate, so I stayed…
Dennis will definitely settle into the team, so he’s a real find.
The batting lineup is quite powerful by modern NPB standards.
But being in 4th place is definitely a disaster.
>>80There aren’t enough named pitchers for the story!
>>90There’s only one person who seems like an ace pitcher.
It’s amazing to hit, but it feels like the ace is the only one trying hard.
I wonder if there is such a thing as a team.
There’s no team in Japan where this guy bats seventh.
Cleanup Anywhere
…Isn’t it more like Yokohama from a little while ago rather than Lotte?
The original work for the anime currently airing seems to be from five years ago.
Those results have really changed, huh?
Baseball is intense, isn’t it?
>>83Every year, the environment inevitably changes to some extent, so a team that can adapt well to those changes is strong.
>>83In the past few years, hitting 30 home runs in an unusually unbalanced environment with high offense and low pitching would allow you to compete for titles.
>>83The evolution of pitcher development and complete specialization leads to well-conditioned relief pitchers emerging, as well as changes in batters’ swings to adjust to non-flying balls, among other things.
The defense doesn’t seem that good, and you often see them in tricky situations, but it feels like they get into those situations just to depict a moment where they manage to get through, showing incredible teamwork at that very moment.
When things are stable and when they are collapsing, it becomes a digest…
The beer vendor should do things that will make the fourth person happier.
According to last year’s standards, 17 wins would tie for 6th place in the Central League and be in 8th place in the Pacific League.
Thanks to the ball not flying anymore, the numbers have become such that I could claim to be one of the league’s top sluggers.
Even if we’re treated as cheaters by two foreign players of class 30 or fans from other teams, we can’t complain.
>>88In 2011, the Yakult team, which was in first place and doing well with Gaiers and Balentain, ultimately lost to the Chunichi Dragons…
Even foreign players who can hit 30 home runs are like out-of-place artifacts now…
>>91That kind of thing doesn’t happen now…
>>91In the past, getting fired for around 20 would have been common, but that’s absolutely not the case now.
>>91I feel that the number of foreigners winning batting titles has decreased compared to the past.
>>96Since Saber metrics have become popular and it’s now easier to identify players with a high potential to become outstanding athletes, Japanese teams are having a more difficult time acquiring them.
>>91It’s surprising that there hasn’t been a single person since the 20s.
>>100That kind of guy goes to the majors and doesn’t come to Japan…
Due to the yen’s depreciation, big-name foreigners won’t come to Japan…
>>98I saw in the news that there seems to be an amazing person on the BayStars.
>>103That person has various reasons that prevent them from returning to America, so they are an exception.
>>103There are two amazing pitchers, one each in Bay and SoftBank, who are reluctantly playing in Japan due to some kind of scandal.
Team officials, players, their families, and team fans.
There will be many characters appearing…
This is the timing for taking points, and number 7 is extremely valuable.
I think that just hitting double-digit home runs these days qualifies you as a power hitter.
There are quite a few amazing pitchers, both Japanese and foreign.
This is the perception of an outdated veteran whose prime has long passed.
>>107It is rare, but not impossible, to see examples like veteran players such as Takehiro Yamazaki from the Rakuten era making a big comeback after being released and transferring to a new team.
Bauer kind of… messed up over there…
All the foreigners in Yokohama right now are really excellent…
Most people who come to Japan have really bad judgment when it comes to selecting things.
Last year’s Manba had a .252 batting average, 18 home runs, and 60 RBIs, so by today’s standards, this performance would definitely warrant being treated as a core player…
Mizuno, get your act together and do something about the ball…
Isn’t baseball more interesting when there are a lot of home runs?
>>115It’s interesting.
>>118I feel like that’s one of the reasons for the current popularity of Japanese majors.
Of course, the best is definitely Ohtani.
>>131Well, I haven’t really watched much other than the Dodgers.
It turned into a dark thread…
It’s clearly strange that there are so many pitchers with a low number of wins and an ERA in the 2s right now.
>>120Bargain sale for items priced at 1000 yen.
I wonder what the results were like during the peak season.
>>121Is it like a .300 batting average with 30 home runs and 100 RBIs?
Even during their peak, they have never achieved a .300 batting average with 30 home runs, but they have managed to reach 100 RBIs, which would be impressive.
It’s well-known that Lotte’s hitting-related records can be traced back to Ochiai.
It seems that the pitcher has an advantage or something.
Batters have an advantage depending on the era, equipment, or rules?
It exists, huh…
Recently, the influence of pitching analysis has made pitchers’ pitches overall incredibly faster.
>>127If you want to win on the right, it has become an era where you need to achieve 150 to even be considered.
Something is showing up…
It must be the work of some fan…
If it’s a rich ball, you don’t need speed.
Baseball doesn’t have relegation to lower leagues like soccer does.
Even when losing, there’s not much of a sense of tension.
>>133On the contrary, it won’t lead to a dead end, so I can easily support them with the mindset of “I’ll do my best next year.”
Even if you say they’re weak, in ten years they might be the champions, that’s baseball.
I have the impression that 2020 became a turning point in many ways.
I wish Wakazuki could achieve this kind of result.
>>136If I hit this much as a catcher now, I’ll be treated like a god…
>>140This is what Moritomo should be like.
>>143Recently, Mori hasn’t been catching much…
To be frank, the benefits of data and video research are greater for the defensive side than for the offensive side, so I guess this is what happens when that develops.
Extreme shifts in MLB have been banned, but that’s proof that it has been researched to that extent.
>>137I’m just using a ball that purely doesn’t fly.
The thread set up by the wife.
It feels like I only hit 200 career home runs and didn’t reach 30 home runs even in my prime.
I wonder what to do about being relegated, losing sponsors, and ending up in the red.
I thought a YouTuber comparing major and Japanese baseballs would come out soon, but none have appeared at all.
>>146The hurdle of getting two types of new balls is too high to begin with.
At the beginning of the season, he was introduced as a veteran with a total of 200 home runs, and now with around 220 home runs, there are very few active players who have hit that many.
I won’t go as far as to say it’s like a rabbit, but can’t we do something a little more about it?
Professional baseball doesn’t hit that far these days…
So, does that mean being a powerful hitter in that environment would also work in the majors?
>>150I think it will actually work.
So hurry up and go to the majors.
The hurdle for position players is quite high, regardless of the pitcher.
It’s better than the most crazy wet sports era, but still…
>>153I think the boredom is about the same as it was back then.
Even a .300 hitter is an endangered species, so soon we’ll see a batting champion with a .200 average.
I’m treated as unpopular just because I’m an old man.
In reality, a guy who can hit reasonably well becomes quite popular, right?
Did this happen to ship the pitcher at a high price?
>>156While being influenced by the majors, this has happened, and NPB is only thinking about shortening the game.
In the past few years, it feels even more intense than during the Katou era at first glance, as there are no standout players like Okawari or Abe.
There are too many close games, and since the support points are tough, there are also a lot of relief appearances, so I don’t think it’s even a cycle.
The performance of the players that emerged a little while ago, aside from the images in the thread, was generally quite good.
The Motor Sands, who are probably on the edge of being able to make it to the CS, likely have a considerably weak pitching staff.
