[@joelnelson4770]

One of my favorite stats from the 2020 MLB season was that Starling Marte played in 61 games in a 60 game regular season due to being traded from Arizona to Miami.

[@iamjp1]

and the next year he led mlb in steals but because he was traded between leagues, he led neither league lol

[@roacherino8446]

Dinelson Lamet posting in 2025 hell yeah

[@Bruc_eTheBear]

Jolly single handedly keeping me from biting my arm off in anticipation of Spring Training games

[@agurena2012]

one thing you can always count on in this world is jolly coming up with a cool ass video concept and executing it to perfection. happy saturday to us!

[@RomanPeregrino-j7d]

I know Yaz has been sturdy for a while now, but feel like he deserves an honorable mention for being 8th in MVP and having his highest WAR season (literally) in 54 games

[@ryangale3757]

Nice to see Mike Brosseau get a mention; that plate appearance was a beauty to watch from a technical standpoint (could really see Brosseau slowly but surely time up Chapman's pitches), and also IMMENSELY satisfying after Chapman's 'accidental' headhunting (I still think it was at least partially deliberate and either way, the suspension was very much deserved).

[@Logan-AI]

Yankees fan here. Luke Voit was a legit stud: .883 OPS over parts of four seasons with NY. Derailed by injuries, but not a fluke, in my opinion.

[@jopilot4126]

Yup aswell as being horrible defender if he doesn’t hit he’s unplayable.

[@jakesibley7615]

You will respect Red Sox legend Dom Smith, he's the only first baseman who stepped up in Casas abscence and I will cherish that man forever!!

[@redman8828]

He was a Mets legend LONG before a Red Sox legend. No Mets fan would ever truly hate on that man

[@jakesibley7615]

@@redman8828 Yes, but he never had a B.D.S.M moment on the Mets, so ur entire argument is invalid lol.

[@thealternaters5006]

I’ll never forget Jacoby jones being in mvp considerations early in that season🙏🙏

[@EZnation100]

I know a lpt of people didnt like the 2020 season but i honestly enjoyed it and the weird playoffs that year. It was the light in a very dark year. Ultimately im grateful it happened.

[@glucosaminecondroitan9135]

This makes me want to watch Foolish Baseball's Baseball Bits about the 2020 Mets. "Where have all my runs gone?"

[@ADRgman]

Also there’s a shoutout to Tim Lacastro here

[@lunarumbreon7699]

Have you seen my runs? They were just here

[@russellchung3119]

To clarify, Max Stassi's "off-field issues" was caring for his premature son.

[@LYRICONHIGHT]

I miss the bat cracks and the umpire arguments of 2020 😢😢😢

[@valpix7007]

playing in a strat-o-matic league with the 2020 set was such a joy. so many just anonymous guys that were ludicrously OP

[@Ren_Brands]

Kyle Lewis is one of those what if stories people might revisit in 10-15 years, so much potential and a great Rookie Season.

[@Baseballer01]

Kyle Lewis used to play at my travel organization

[@wisyanksfangaming3434]

Jesse Hahn in this BP would be absolutely nasty!!! Not a video I ever expected to see but still passed any and all expectations!

[@TasteOfTheRed]

My fav baseball YT channel

[@backyardbaseball2006]

1.I just knew Kyle Lewis was a future star he raked from college all the way to the pros had some injuries and barely can make a roster all within like 2yrs 2.I really root for Ke'Bryan Hayes if you look at the metrics DEFENSIVELY its literally Brooks Robinson, him and everyone else😅 he's literally a HOFer if he figures out how to be at least a league avg 3B at the plate 3. ANYONE ELSE NOT REALIZE LUIS ROBERT'S ROOKIE YEAR WAS 2020??😂😂That sht caught me off guard

[@blahblahblah1234blah]

Seeing stat outliers like these makes me wonder if some of these players benefitted from lower in-game anxiety as a result of not having to play in front of fans

[@BrokenGoldfishFilms]

Let’s goooo MIKE BROSESAU mention !

[@sethwoodhouse4797]

No 60 game stretch for players was more heavily overweighted than that of the 60 games of 2020

[@jzk0517]

I think a great idea would be the MLB making a All-MLB team for previous years dating back to 1900 But they get dropped over a decade for each year ending in the current years number For example this year would be 1905,1915,1925 etc…

[@Eric-y6t9x]

Nick Anderson and Chris Martin: WHIPs of 0.49 and 0.61 would have been two of the greatest seasons of all time if produced in 162 games

[@thomasmason6631]

Dom smith is dope in mlb the show for some reason also when you say pivotal game 5 and there is card board in the empty stands will always be funny

[@sanatana1]

I will never forget Jose Urquidy for giving Kyle Lewis that concussion, He lost all ability to hit after that.

[@Gvnmff]

thank you for your work jolly. you are an inspiration to me.

[@luketheroux3358]

as a Pads fan, i really thought Lamet was gonna be a future Cy Young. just couldn’t stay healthy. one of the best sliders of all time

[@justingerald]

I love that Luke Voit hit 22 hr that year in 60 g and that remains his career high.

[@willsisskind]

Thanks for reminding me that Luke Voit was the biggest thirst trap on the Syracuse Mets for a hot second Jolly

[@alessandroshinn4872]

Did you forget about Bieber triple crown???

[@timowns2]

2020 Dinelson Lamet... He was special. 😢 I really thought he'd be a cornerstone for the padres for years to come. Hope he finds his way back to the bigs. He's absolutely electric when he's on his game.

[@2013claybuchholz]

Yukon yetis legend max stassi

[@shoukatsukai]

This season was so fake, a team with losing record was one game away from reaching the World Series

[@Feanor026]

Yeah and the Giants with the same losing record than the Brewers didn't make it to the playoffs while the Brewers did become of more W in their division while the NL W was so much tougher. Also the Giants would have easily made it if Posey didn't opt out. Another weird aspect of that season.

[@mascwalt]

@@Feanor026 Ah that reminds me of how the Giants in back to back seasons their year would end on an offlay low pitch that was yanked back up into the zone. Then the not even close check swing strike 3 in the NLDS the next year. ah good times

[@Feanor026]

@@mascwalt right, the 60th game in 2020 was awful, I remember Slater striking out on balls for important at bat, maybe even the last out ? And then in 2021... Wade Jr a few inches away from being remembered as the one who hit a go ahead walk off HR against the Dodgers to reach the NLDS, before Flores not swinging on a check swing for last out... Just imagine if we won then the Giants would have had better off season next few years and Ohtani might have a signed with the them. A lot of what if but still.

[@iangodfrey1706]

Dom Smith legend season

[@AlexTheMultiFanStudios]

Cubs fan here, if I were to put a starting rotation player as addition. It would be Darvish. Darvish was having a rough season in 2018, but then 2019’s second half him was outstanding. He continued in 2020, while he did not win the Cy Young behind a pitcher for the Reds in ERA, Darvish was amazing. Sadly that amazing 8-3 record and strikeouts he had was never the same. He was close as an ace but now he’s gonna retire soon. So I’d put him kind of here as a 2nd starter.

[@WillTheTrainFan]

Darvish has had a very successful MLB career outside of 2020, though

[@brojans2053]

No matter how many times I’m told the 2020 World Series don’t count, no one can ever take the happiness I felt and memories I have 🤪

[@croke835]

I will forever love 2020 Dom Smith and Amed Rosario

[@LukeFoell]

Love watching this channel ❤

[@MrgimmickRTBW]

Never forget Bobby Dalbec’s decent rookie year in 2020 damn shame things plummeted after 2021

Respect dinelson lamet

[@m6cole]

Wow this is so crazy Ive never heard of 2020 or MLB

[@Neckrollios18]

If we're including the post season accolades, which it looks like a couple of guys had considered, idk how you don't include Randy Arozarena

[@russellchung3119]

Cuz Randy Arozarena is still more than pretty good. That's why 🤣

[@sojc7144]

Love it!!❤❤❤

[@PrettyBigRock]

6:15 known walk off home run giver in the playoffs pitcher Aroldis Chapman (2017 still hurts 😢)

Mike brosseau is INSANE

[@codyh9175]

We're not going to talk about the bias in choosing "LaMET" as the best pitcher?

[@hunterhose347]

Half of these players were/are on the Padres in some way

[@wwpjd28]

I loved 2020 MLB. It was very entertaining in a difficult time. It was pure entertainment and the competitive value of that season is non existent (none of those awards or accomplishments have much merit). But it was a good distraction.

[@jacobfunkhouser6600]

3 team trades vid Jolly! Make it happen!

[@LaptopGuy-km4bh]

Iglesias deserves better than to be on this list. He's had 4 seasons better than his 2020 by WAR and is a career .283/.323/.386 hitter with solid defense at a super-premium position.

[@doomt3ch]

Damn how you just gunna gloss over Iglesias with the Angels. Him and Shoehei had some great moments! Great vid Jolly

mike yastrzemski was a demon that year

[@muhammadbarokah81]

What I always noticed is that Luke Voit really looks like young Jason Giambi

[@tajnost6468]

Why is Joey Votto not a hitting coach somewhere

[@Shyny_Yordy]

You should make a video about the opposite. Stars who didn't perform like stars in 2020. Shohei Ohtani has a 79 OPS+ for example.

[@j8jackson129]

Mike Yastrzemski needs an honorable mention

[@GetBent009]

Big head = big brain to hold more baseball information

[@S_Over_Street]

MLB & the players union screwed the bag of how many games to play in 2020. Took them like a month or 2 to figure out how players would be paid out on the shortened season & they almost canceled the entire season if they couldn’t come to an agreement soon. Was supposed to be 100 games starting in June, then 80 games starting in July. Then they figured it out at the final hour & played 60 games. Better than nothing.

You forgot luke was with milwaukee too

Obviously the whole thing sucked but that COVID-Cave baseball era was amazing. I would watch the Tigers (shoutout CJ MFin’ Cron) in the early slot and eventually fall asleep to a random Rockies-Angels game. Peak living
