I was waiting for a stat head to come back with a defense of Ortiz. 😆 What is he hitting on days that end in y? 

The problem is you keep advocating for Mona, who is below well below average offensively as well. Just because he had a little hot streak doesn't make him a significantly better hitter than Ortiz. You also consistently undervalue the difference between the two on defense

When Fedde has control of that sweeper on and off the plate, he can be really effective. 

He's been decent against righty. If he sees a lefty it's a wrap.

My Fan Duel is so far behind. ESPN told me Jansen struck out before he even came up to bat on my tv.

Same here. I get texts from people about exciting things, and it hasn't happened yet on my computer using FanDuel.

He's all they got. Take it up with Arnold. I wanted a pick up at the deadline. Someone decided he would come around. It's not a defense of Mono but you can't just say we will only take 23 outs in this game. Thanks. Playoff game all 27 matter.

Jackson! Come on. The opposing batter's box is not the strike zone. Looking like late-career Rickie Weeks out there.

For the statheads. Joey is currently the 101 rated player at shortstop. Using DRS Ortiz is currently-2. Mookie Betts is first at +17. Apparently he's incredible defense isn't all that incredible according to the stats. If he was prime Ozzie Smith fine. Is he better than Mono? Sure. Not enough to justify an auto out.

Good analogy. He does remind you of Weeks flailing away at that low outside breaking ball. Churio needs some serious bench time right now. One for his last 26. 7th whiff in his last 4 games. Perkins isn't much, but slightly better right now.

Your probably looking at a ranking with fielding + hitting.

For his career at 3B Ortiz has +9 DRS and +9 FRV.

For his career at SS Ortiz has -2 DRS and +11 FRV.

One of these things is not like the others.

When you watch Ortiz at SS do you think he looks like more of a -2 or a +11 defender?
