How Moneyball RUINED the Oakland A's
Переглядів 11 тис.Місяць тому
Moneyball was a beautiful thing that the Oakland Athletics front office executed to perfection throughout the 21st century. But as John Fisher’s tenure prolonged, Moneyball seemed to become less about winning with a low payroll and more about simply just having a low payroll. Thank You for watching. See you in 2 weeks for my next video!

How Did the DODGERS Build A MLB Juggernaut
my favorite player of all time
2003 championships with ‘Boone iconic homerun.’ My favorite moment as a Pedro fan. Unfortunately they lost. Grady Little went out to get Pedro, he couldn’t. Pedro was not coming out. The manager did not leave Pedro in too long.
Pedro was on the Falco list you goober. Everyone on that RedSox team was juicing including Pedro.
But the Yankees were his daddy. His words not mine and I am a Red Sox fan. 😁
No you’re not, lol.
Pedro was almost unhittable. His change up, the best ever. His stuff was so nasty.. got to see him play in Boston a few times. He was one of those players you just knew was going to dominate. Best ever IMHO.
That shot at Mark McGuire, saying he enhanced his workout program lol
I watched a game between the Sox and the Yankees, can't remember what year it was but it pinned Padro against Clemens. Padro out pitched Clemens. Complete game 1-0 shutout striking out 17 batters for the win. He was a great pitcher.
Surprised to see Reggie charge the mound. Super nice guy. He gave the initial speech at my first Spring Training when I played in the St. Louis Cardinals organization and he was all class.
That’s the best pitcher to ever step on the mound
In his Prime #45 is the best Pitcher I’ve ever seen in 30 years of being obsessed with the game of baseball.
Slow down you dont have to talk so damn fast
THE 🐐, the reason I watch baseball is Pedro.
The movements on his pitches are unmatched even to this day. It was like watching wiffleball being pitched 90 miles an hour moving all over the place. It was unbelievable to see.
I think it’s not only stupid they are not recognized for there achievements cuz of what people deem”the steroid era” when in fact hundreds of players for many years before and some after used all sorts of ped’s it’s only the honest onset that got penalized
not testing positive for roids does not mean anything. This is a low-IQ framing. Pedro was an amazing pitcher. I'm pro-steroids for everyone. His dominance is unquestionable regardless if he had special sauce or not. Claiming he is clean is like claiming morons like David Ortiz was (he wasn't). The actual answer is, we shouldn't care or pretend that anyone wasn't. It's a pointless exercise in futility when it was legal both to purchase and not banned or enforced by the MLB at the time.
My favorite player of all time
Pedro Martínez is not even the best Dominican pitcher ever. That title goes to Juan Marichal. Pitchers were consumers as hitters were during the steroid era. Steroids strenghten your muscles and ligaments like the rotator cuff, making you throw harder, more innings, recover faster and train more frequently allowing you to master your stuff. Martínez longstanding personal trainer was banned from MLB ballparks due to his involvement with steroids. Martínez denied using steroids. So were Alex Rodríguez, Sammy Sosa, Manny Ramírez, Robinson Canó, Tatis and over 50 Dominican players qho have been suspended by MLB for PEDs. The fist step in dealing with a problem is acknowledging that there is one. PEDs enablers are still around selling stardomship and money.
Best pitcher I have ever seen Got to see him live in Boston in 2002 what a game
Ur a lucky man
Grady Little is still a 4 letter word in my house
He is "persona non grata"(?) round here...My friends and I don't acknowledge his existence
06:44 dam he looked safe
PedrOIDS Martinez
Hey buddy - the criticism I’m about to give you is meant to be constructive and respectful. I recommend you slowing down the pace of your narration and focus a little heavier on pronunciation. I love baseball UA-cam and it’s obvious the amount of work it takes to create each video. Again, there’s no hate just respect and encouragement 🤙🏻
Definitely working on it i appreciate the feedback
@@InDepthBaseballYTYup, just take your time. Try to consciously enunciate a little. Viewers will appreciate a little deliberation. That said, you write a good script.
In his prime, he was the best ever.
I remember when the Dodgers traded him. How stupid they were. They thought he was too small to last very long.
He was doing the same thing as everyone else that's how
Yeah the dude that was skinnier than a skeleton was juicing
At 2:28 was the 2019 a mistake?
yes typo
Someone help me understand why him being 5'11" 175 means anything as a pitcher? I knew plenty of guys under 6 foot who could throw harder than bigger men. And pitching isn't just throwing hard obviously
The average MLB pitcher is 6'3, 220. I bet you do know smaller guys who threw hard, they are what we call outliers. Pedro is maybe the most extreme outlier that has ever taken the mound, thats why its sick
2000 is NOT in the 21st century. It was the last year of the 20th century.
🙄
As a Yankee fan, this legend deserves far more respect.
All signs point to steroids. The old trainer was dealing Oxy to Skaggs, Trout won't play in a big market, the injuries, Jersey Shore
The best to ever do it ! The most dominant pitcher of his era and the steroid era … Petey was the truth ! 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
how do you strikeout everybody and walk nobody
Lets put our thinking cap on and try to figure out what I meant by that
Edit: the werid cut around 10:14 is because MLB claimed a 20 second clip in the video that I had to cut out after uploading
Had to see it to believe it
Why does it say 2019 @2:30?
Shoot thats a typo
@@InDepthBaseballYT I really liked this video! I’m only recently getting into baseball and am going to have to take another look at Maddux as the GOAT lol
The goat
I was a Nomar Garciaparra fan growing up because i played shortstop. So i was a fan of whatever team he was on. Pedro became my favourite pitcher soon after. I was always an allstar growing up as both a pitcher and a SS. Imitate the best
Its big gheeyz to root for a single player over a team, I bet you beat off to Nomar posters.
@Lennox1224 I was a kid. Baseball was t even my favourite sport. I played football my entire life. This has to be the weirdest comment. To think someone who has a fav player growing up is like that says a lot about you. Stop projecting your insecurities on others. Take your fantasies elsewhere
@@aarongarcia2911 Its not just that you have a favorite player, its the fact that you only rooted for 1 player in the entire league regardless of what team he played for, thats weird........dont get butthurt about it, stop obsessing about a single man.
@Lennox1224 everyone has a favourite player growing up. The only one making it weird is you. As a kid you either have a family bring you into a team, or you figure it out yourself. My family was a football family. Needing to cheer for a team or your gay is saying a lot about you. You mean to tell me you're so insecure that if you only rooted for your favourite player you'd like men. I think you just like men. It's ok. It's 2024. We'll still accept you
@@aarongarcia2911 Its ok man, you had a thing for Nomar, you dont have to be ashamed or get defensive, you laid it all out, youre not a baseball fan, you just enjoyed oogling Nomar , you do you bro.
need to spend money to win
The title is specious. He did it by getting out of the NL, where most of the best juicers were. But really, though, he dominated in 1999-2000 with great command of his change-up and fastball. To make a long story short. You're welcome.
He did win a Cy young in the NL, not at the peak of the steroid era but definitely a high run environment
Best hitters were in the AL so what are you saying ?😂😂😂
@@eriklaguira the AL had most of the best hitters in that era but the NL had the best hitter and arguably the 2nd best also Bonds and pujols , McGwire, Larry Walker, piazza, jeff bagwell, ken kaminiti, chipper jones,
And Pedro averaged it for 7 season. Now that's ridiculous
Awesome vid. Though I am was an Indians fan during Pedro's Reign of Terror, it was hard not to admire him. He was so very entertaining, even in beating one's own team. And he was so small of stature! I worked with the Cleveland Indians media at that time and so once had a chance to be next to Pedro-- tiny fella! Yet, man, somehow he could bring that fastball of NITRATE! Amazing, incredible, impressive. Thanks for the vid.
I love pedro
Pedro Martinez, especially in 1999 and 2000, was the most dominant pitcher in the game. His fastball looked like a tiny aspirin at opposing hitters. And Pedro's curveball was devasting.
I remember those couple years. You're right. NOBODY could hit him. The baddest MF in baseball imo. Then I remember when a rod was in Texas. I thought he was the baddest even though the rangers weren't going anywhere.
Don’t forget the change. During that time he had the best FB, CB and Change in baseball. Lethal combo
Dude had some long ass fingers and could drop the circle change like nobody else.
Trout shouldn't have won the MVP when his team stunk, and had a losing season one year.
He was on steroids too
Proof?
😂don’t think so
The greatest ever. True to his number 45...he is so legendary.
He's the GOAT pitcher. 8th all time in the most important stat (WHIP) and did it all in the steroids era while only being 5'11 175lbs.
8th all time in whip doesnt make him the goat , I dont care how tall he is , he wasnt the only top pitcher not on juice.
He WAS the top pitcher though.
@@Lennox1224say it without crying now you clown 🤡
Only 5'11" 175? Would he somehow be a better pitcher if he was 6'3" 200? He's pitching, not playing center in basketball 😂
He's great but for my money Greg Maddux was better
Don't overlook Tim Lincecum, another slim guy who dominated for a time. Martinez had career longevity. Lincecum didn't. Martinez was a better pitcher, but Lincecum has his place in the hall of the very good.
tim just had very hard mechanics
Lincecum is underrated
Pedro was one of the best ever an unbelievable talent
