Made an editing error on Devers inserting Lowe's reactions. What I feel bad about for you is you're going to get 100s of comments over the next 4 months pointing that out.
Love your content. Are you gonna be returning to making baseball vids?
@@ian3740 Thanks. Don't want to take away from Baily's video talking about my own stuff. I answered that in a recent community post.
@@BaseballsNotDead Big respect.
Bailey should have realized that Tatis was gonna have a case of ringworm and miss the rest of the year. Such a casual
true
LeBron knew
Prop bet right there

Logan Webb SZN
It’s the guy
Logan Webb bros! If only the Giants could field and those groundballs he and their pitchers get 😂
Foolish speedruns MLB the Show 22 Immaculate Inning
Trout has a spine injury and miss 40 games while put up 6.0 war.... is really incredible
Fun Fact: Juan Soto had a negative OAA and was a gold glove finalist
Dominican bias
That and Vladdy having -4 OAA and he actually won a gold glove? LOL
embarrassing
He’s like peak Darrelle Revis…he’s so good they don’t even hit the ball to him
You have to meet certain thresholds to be able to be a finalist, so if a player doesn't meet the games played or innings at that specific position they won't qualify and then someone else less skillful at that position who did meet the innings then gets put in their place. Plus a coaches vote is a part of this and you can't vote for your guys on your own team, but unless a guy is in the division you play and therefore see semi-regularly you may see a guy 3 times all year and if they happen to make a diving grab you could have that stuck in your mind despite not seeing all the mistakes the other 159 games.
The sad part about Crawford as a Giants fan was that he was obviously battling injuries and still played - and once he took his IL break and recovered he started to look back to his regular form in the last 3 months of the season :(. Really tough considering how awful the Giants defense was this year.
summoning salt and boesthius wtf
@@theodorehansen273 i out myself wearing my Giants hat on stream ahaha
Oh hey funny seeing you here
@@RockiesSweden civ meetup in Bailey's comments haha
Go Civ and go baseball!
Jose Ramirez running a 6.2 fWAR and 150 OPS+ with a torn UCL is one of the most gangster seasons ever.
I suppose, but it seems like it doesn't affect hitters that much. Harper, Ramirez, Ohtani all seemed pretty much normal
One thing to mention about Max Muncy... take a look at his month by month stats. He started terrible and stayed terrible for a long time (OPS hovered in this high .500s from April to July) but then really improved after that, with an OPS of around .900 for August and September. He will most likely bounce back in 2023.
J.T Realmuto's amazing season is really interesting because he started the year really slow and I mean REALLY slow. He was a below average hitter until about July and then I think he reverted back to his old leg kick and just started absolutely raking. There was a statistic that said he had the second best slugging percentage since around July or August through September next to Aaron Judge because he was just going off.
If he put up a full season like what he did in the second half... Watch out
probably could argue he would've been an MVP finalist had he played the way he did in the 2nd half in the first half
tommy edman at #1 next season is gonna be nutty
He is perpetually underrated. Doesn't really hit for power, but he's got good plate discipline, runs well, fields well. I'd be surprised if he was outside the top 50 next year.
This list just shows how unpredictable the MLB is. You never know which players will decline and which ones will break out.
It takes a genius to watch this and conclude, "you never know." That 77 people liked your comment only proves every deprecating remark ever made about youtube comment sections.
@@johnstrawb3521 it ain’t that deep 😅
Max Muncy, in my opinion, is absolutely going to bounce back next season. If you take a look at his month-to-month splits on Baseball Reference, you'll see he started to round back into form in August and September. Plus his plate discipline and good eye are just things you cannot take away with injury. He still walks at an elite rate.
I like that you rate your picks after the season. There are a lot of player rankings that you just trust because they are espn or cbs but its cool seeing your thought process and then how it ended up, it makes me think your lists are well informed but might not be quite right.
Would like to point out that with Jose Ramirez that he played almost the entire season with a broken hand and still finished 4th in the MVP race.
With respect to Kyle Tucker, I just like guys who bat with no batting gloves, that’s why I like him. He’s obviously a top tier talent in the game which helps.
Love players who just rawdog it with the bat. Shows his grit
grandal > arenado and riley off the top 50 is tough, but you’re still the undisputed gboat (greatest bailey off all time)
With 6.4bwar this year edman could lowkey be playing himself into the HOF with his baserunnning and defense. Should have been in the top 50 this year. And should be next year
just made a comment on this. NOBODY respects him and i don't understand why
@@carterjohnson426 all his value comes from defense which always flies under the radar
@@carterjohnson426 gotta get the OBP bumping over 350 by free agency. The legs for steals and taking extra bases are there for now.
@@Kaibat1205 i know it’s really upsetting
From "i am garbage" to ""i'm taking my victory lap" in one quick pick.
Thanks for the content this season, Bailey. I watch a lot of baseball on UA-cam and I like most of the baseball youtubers but your content is always the best in my opinion
As a Phillies fan I seriously respect you saying you wished Bryce was able to bring home a ring this year despite the rivalry. I was rooting for your Braves last year too.
Just remember JT Realmuto really didn’t get his season going until he called $267,000 “a little bit of money.” Then he realized he was never going to hear the end of that unless he started to go on a tear and good for him coming through while Harper was out of the lineup. And there’s a swing and a miss on a pitch two feet outside of the zone by Castellanos for a strike out.
1 hour of Bailey??? Best Saturday ever
I see you everywhere dude lol
@@CJ_747 bro where else do you see me lol
@@King_Immanuel baseball content I guess, your name sounds familiar and I know I’ve seen more than one of your comments
@@King_Immanuel Wait… you literally replied to one of my comments a few months ago. It was from “Shortest homeruns in each mlb stadium” by Punchouts. I made a timestamp of each clip
@@CJ_747 Looks like I did. Appreciate you for making those time stamps my brother 👍
Such a refreshing baseball commentary channel!!! Please keep up these videos!
Thoughts on Yu Darvish? You ranked him like 20th coming off of his 2020 performance and then he had a blergh season in 2021. However, he had a really good year this year, 4.2 fWAR exactly! His peripherals weren't exactly Cy Young caliber but he just gobbled up those innings.
Soto gold glove nomination is still hilarious too me
Some insight on Springer for those who read this for some reason.
Springer was playing with a bum elbow for a good amount of the season. Around the all star break his power dropped drastically and he was clearly playing through a good amount of pain which became extremely apparent towards the end of the season. He's getting elbow surgery and should be back for the start of next year.
Springer is also probably getting moved to a corner outfield spot and will spend a good amount of the season at DH in an attempt to keep him healthy and to keep his bat in the lineup. DH will most likely be a combination of Kirk (if he's still a Blue Jay) and Springer as Jansen in the much better game caller and a great hitter (best on the Blue Jays last season lol) but I expect him to get rested a lot as he's suffered many injuries throughout his career (although most of them freak injuries).
Springer will still bat leadoff. I seriously doubt that they move him out of that spot even if they do go and get someone like Nimmo. He has a great veteran presence and really helps set the tone of the game. Also worth noting is that the Blue Jays lineup looks absolutely dead without Springer there.
I'll add more if I think of anything worth noting
never knew I needed a Summoning Salt + Foolish Bailey collab.
No two ways about it - this is amazing baseball content. I was entertained the whole time.
Love these type of reaction videos it's interesting to look back on predictions and see where you did well and where you did poorly I actually picked the Guardians making the playoffs which felt great I also picked Walker Buehler and Bryce Harper winning N.L Cy Young and MVP respectively and they both missed big amounts of time super excited for a new foolish 50
Seeing my comment about Altuve in this video is so amazing. Truly life altering moment. My fearless leader Bailey acknowledged my enormous understanding of ball.
I expect a top 50 debut from Tommy Edman next year
Why does nobody talk about Tommy Edman? Top 20 player by fWAR and top 15 by bWAR. nobody knows who he is and he deserves respect or to be in lists like these. elite base runner and defensive value with above average hitting
@27:19
Jesus. Not only is Walker Buehler's neck wider than his head, it's also longer! That is just some ridiculous neck! Haha :)
Would love to see some scouting of the top NPB prospects to eventually come over to MLB as a fun off season video. Roki Sasaki, Yamamoto, Murikami
The Bailey and MLB rankings on Trea Turner were absolutely bang on, almost never see that
this was a very entertaining video, I have never seen one of your videos, you are very knowledgable, speak well and thought this was a very professional video, great job.
Loved your performance in Draft Day!
Bailey you gotta look deeper into Yordan as a defender. His arm is elite and he’s faster than he seems
Kinda crazy that Jose Altuve was easily a top 10 player in baseball this year, and yet didn't make _either_ top 50 list.
Edit: He talks about Altuve at 59:32. Also, MLB did have him on their list.
Tbf (i say this as an Astros fan) he had a really shit 2020 and okay (albeit above average) 2021. Back to form I think
I was wondering if I missed his part of the video
@@zRhid Yeah.
When he won MVP he batted .346 so he was good this year but not great.
@@jamescook6564 Batting average is a terrible stat for measuring success.
Weighted On-Base Average (wOBA) is much, much better because it properly weighs the value of walks and hits, unlike SLG or OPS.
Altuve's wOBA in 2017 was .405; this year it was .397. His wRC+ in 2017 was 160; this year it was 164.
hey,great video.. looking forward to the next foolish 50
Thank you Mr. Foolish for such high production value.
I feel like Rodon could have gotten an honorable mention for people who missed out on the list. Do you think he makes a top 50 list next year?
He was a top 5-6 pitcher this year, so definitely
Honestly I think he just forgot Rodon haha
Favorite series ever. Keep up the good work buddy
Curious to see how high Julio and Adley go next year
You honesty and self-deprecating humor is refreshing.
56:54 he was a finalist for a gold glove this year 😭😭😭. HOW!?!
Not that it’s an excuse, but Ketel Matre’s hamstring did him in and the coaching staff told him not to push himself. We’ll have to see if that changes next year.
Today I learned that summoning salt was a giants fan and now I love him even more
Happily watched every second. That was fun. I make my own lists and they are fun to revist.
Really excellent list all things considered in my opinion. I hope next year with Semien you take into account that similar to those guys like machado and Harper he really struggled switching parks but in the second half he was one of the best players in baseball. You’ve gotta rank the good and the bad but I hope you’re able to separate that second half performance for him and see that once he figured out hitting in globe life he was a closer player to mvp finalist Semien than fringe top 50 Semien
McClannahan was snubbed from the snub category 😭😭😭😭
You’re Nado self reflection had me dead 😂 I needed that
fav video of the year!
It was disappointing seeing lindor struggle so much in his first year as a Mets fan, but lindor seemed to be ready to forget what happened year one and show why he’s here. That gave me a lot of confidence, great pick Bailey
Something to be said about Max Muncy is he really turned it on towards the end of July, excited to see how he comes out next year
Bailey you've just made my Saturday
One of my favorite videos of the year, Bailey is much more transparent than the LAME stream media.
LAME
Brewer fan that watched vast majority of games: Woodruff struggled with pitch count massively this year. Wasn’t Counsell pulling him early. Was more 4 2/3 IP, 1 ER, 10 SO, 98 pitches
Anyone know why Bailey is using OAA instead of DRS for the defensive stats? I can never understand why some players have good DRS but bad Outs Above Average.
Don't forget Jose Ramirez played the last four months of the season with an injured thumb.
RIP Yasmani Grandal
You will be missed.
Woodruff had a really rough start to the season (injury related). When he came back from the DL he was back to the old Woodruff. Wish you'd shown his progression through the season rather than the final stats
not ONE carlos rodon or zac gallen mention in this video... man. zac gallen i guess i understand but rodon was a top 10 starting pitcher in the NL this year which he had proven he was capable of in years prior.
Hey bud you got a couple clips flipped around at 18:12. Went from Lowe to Devers, back to Lowe then back to Devers.
But what hat will deGrom have on for his 2023 pre season ranking? Texas? Tampa Bay? San Diego?
this video is so good. when you got to nolan arenado i couldnt stop laughing
"God love him, Jose Ramirez!" Well said!
Kyle Tucker enters May every year with a sub .200 BA lol hopefully he can lock in early and no more shift will help a bit
27:00 Buehler's pic is way too funny to me
How is he that pale in LA lol
14:24 the most accurate thing ever
despite injuries, if you combine Trout and deGrom’s 2021 and 2022 seasons you get incredible seasons
Trout: 155 games, 48 homers, .294 BA, .391/.629/1.020 slashline, 100% stolen base rate, 181 OPS+
deGrom: 26 starts, 156.1 innings, 12-6 record, 1.90 ERA, 248 K’s, 19 BB’s, 1 HBP, 208 ERA+, and a 0.633 WHIP
if healthy these two are probably going to add more to their trophy cases in 2023
I didn't know Summoning Salt was a baseball fan. What a real one
I'd like to see a history of tobacco use in baseball, from the Honus Wagner cigarette card to the modern day, I am at the Devers ranking and I know that it is "sunflower seeds and bubblegum" but I feel like tobacco has a pretty major role in the history of the game.
I wonder all the time if Devers gets fined or MLB just looks the other way. dude has the fattest lip of tobacco constantly
Great video
FOOLISH YOU ARE THE BEST UA-camR IN THE WORLD! IF YOU RAN FOR PRESIDENT I WOULD VOTE FOR YOU AND HAVE YOUR SIGN ON MY LAWN SAYING “FOOLISH BASEBALL FOR PRESIDENT!!”
I feel like Jose Trevino deserved a shoutout in that last section! Even as a Yankees fan I wouldn’t have had him in the top 50 going into the season but with hindsight the platinum glover deserves some respect!
Lmao, never expected to see a summoning salt appearance in your videos
54:34 this is what i have a big issue with when talking about Ohtani. he doesnt play more than other players. he appears in barely enough innings to be considered a Cy Young candidate (which he would probably win if he had 200 innings, but he never pitches that much), and he only DH's, meaning he only appears in half games where he doesnt pitch. based on innings, he plays just more than half the amount of game time as any starting position player in baseball. yes he is insane, a top 10 player every single year of his career, but he doesnt play as much as you say he does, not even close
14:15 Speaking as a Mets fan, big preesh.
Gotta love the humility here
Curious where you would rank Rodón? I feel he was underrated this season in the Cy Young race and even amongst his peers during the first round of All-Star Game rosters. How much weight would you put in his move to Yankee Stadium/AL East for future projection?
Thoughts about Alek Monoah? I think he deserves a spot in the top 50 next season
Trout gonna prove all doubt wrong next year and win his 4th MVP
Did Dewayne Wise really comment on your video? That's awesome
I malign Gerrit Cole because he’s a man who’s paid 35+ million a year to throw a ball and has so little character as to bitch about how hard it is to grip the ball when he can’t use spider tack, and do it at a press conference where’s he’s legit about to start crying. Dude…wtf?
Dude a .630 slugging from trout is ludicrous, this man is a GOD.
bailey what are your thoughts on bryce elder of your braves?
BAILEY DONT OVERREACT ABOUT BRYAN REYNOLDS he did not have a regression just a bad April, from May 1 to the end of the season he had an 839 OPS !!!! Still elite trust !
Bailey makes great baseball vids.
Looking forward to Corbin Carroll being your gutsy #50 next year
Give some love to Jeremy Pena and Framber Valdez. World series winners that carried the Astros
This must have taken forever to edit. So many clips and cuts!
You getting pwned on Nolan Arenado is glorious and also unbecoming of you, Bailey. Dude has been the most consistent and durable offensive third baseman for a decade while also being arguably the best defensive player in the league (any position) OPS+d a 119 in his first season with the redbirds with his defense (elite production in a down year). It's always tough to transition to a different, and now he literally showed what he is. A future first ballot HOFer
it's okay bailey, we all make mistakes. exicted to see vinnie pasquantino and brady singer at 1 & 2 next year!
If Byron Buxton didn’t have glass bones and paper skin, he’s easily a top 5 offensive and defensive player in the league. Shame he just can’t stay healthy
great vid
Calling it now. Brendon Donovan with his On base and versatility. Dude is gonna put up a 5war season and be a top50
While Muncy's 2022 was not a top 50 season, he performed much much better down the stretch. The bounceback kinda already happened but is covered up by the bad numbers early in the year, easily attributable to still recovering from injury
Why use FIP (and thus fWAR) to talk about a guy like Urias, who has great hard contact suppression? The job of a pitcher is to get outs and not give up runs, Urias gets outs and doesn't give up runs. The fact that soft contact involves defense doesn't mean that producing soft contact isn't a skill. And the fact that FIP is more predictive than ERA isn't really relevant for assessing what a player *actually did* this year. If a guy hits .400 on BABIP luck, he still had an all-time great offensive season!
I'm new here so please let me know if you've done this.... Since you did a top 50 pick and a how you did video you should do a video of the actual top 50 of the year vid. Thank you.
