    Last year it was OFers, at least there are more pitchers on the roster in general to partially explain why.
  2. igor67
    Bright side at least we aren't facing TBD, that guy kills us every time!
  3. igor67
    I'd be more inclined to buy the premise if he had seen a significant number AAA ABs, but he never has so giving him a month or 2 to be successful putting these lessons to practice is not something to dismiss out of hand. He's still got 2 weeks until Mitchell is back and if he shows progress it's a different conversation.
  4. igor67
    Jackson barely had 20 AAA ABs, some consistent time to get back to producing reliably is a pretty reasonable idea at this point. Fangraphs has both defensively with similar value. 1 (Jackson) vs 2 (Frelick) DRS and 1.1 UZR for Jackson vs. 1.6 for Frelick. I'm comfortable calling that a wash even though Frelick is a smidge ahead. For the purposes of the discussion a solid starting bat would more clearly push Frelick into that 4th OFer role as well.
  5. igor67
    Frelick's OPS is over 70 points higher than Chourio's and most of that is OBP (Jackson's SLG is just 6 points higher). So Chourio is the obvious replacement at the moment if you are only focused on the current line-up.
  6. igor67
    With as left heavy at the top, I'd be inclined to go with Hudson or Koenig in game 1 and be content with only getting 1 inning but hoping to snag 2 innings and setting yourself up to do that again in game 3 or 4 of the series while still having good options to bring in a lefty for key innings late.
  7. igor67
    Position players are way more likely to win ROY, so that helps. Potentially splitting the Dodger vote helps and if the Cubs can't turn it around Ortiz being on a contender helps. It would definitely be huge to add another pick from that deal.
  8. igor67
    If Chourio turns it on this offense become just fantastic, I don't mind waiting Mitchell out for a bit to see if he can deliver solid performance but by the end of the month they need to not be giving full time ABs to the OF mix if they are sub .700 OPS. I don't want to lock those young guys out for good, but come the second half you need to set yourself up. I don't worry too much about the true bench type players because I assume they'll do what they can but for the most part the cost and the benefits to those players are modest enough I don't worry too much about it with the current front office. I do think if they can get another solid starter combined with the super deep pen and defense that might well be enough pitching to put it all together.
  9. igor67
    I'm inclined to think he's a proud guy and dealing with being on a complete joke of a team ain't a whole lot of fun.
  10. igor67
    I was thinking with the balanced schedule that at this point in the season that wasn't that big a factor, but The Giants, St. Louis, and Washington are all atleast .500 or slightly better with the Philly games off the schedule.
  11. igor67
    No doubt every game I tune into and still get to hear him call is special.
  12. igor67
    And the Pirates have lost
  13. igor67
    Looking for chances (like a 3 run lead with a guy already in the game) to extend pitchers a bit is a good thing in my book.
  14. igor67
    Pirates are down to their final out as well
  15. igor67
    I guess Jackson just needed to see that AAA pitching!
  16. igor67
    I don't have an opinion as much as mixing and matching the term ace and then using 1/2/3 terminology leads to versions of this discussion over and over.
  17. igor67
    I think this is a classic problem where people often think of an ace as a top 10-15 pitcher in the league.
  18. igor67
    That does seem awfully extreme. On the other hand only 12 teams have an over .500 record at the moment, which also seems a to be getting toward the extreme.
  19. igor67
    I would definitely want to see Mitchell on a rehab assignment, but he has done enough that if he looks ready and productive in game action I have no issue optioning Chourio for a bit.
  20. igor67
    Assuming we won't bat here in the 9th, can we have more hits than outs? We already have more non outs than outs unless it goes to extra innings.
  21. igor67
    My big surprise so far with Frelick is the relatively modest number of steals. Anybody pick-up on any reason he doesn't run more?
  22. igor67
    Well maybe they'll spike a ball in the dirt so Yelich can score, or we could always go for another straight steal of home.
  23. igor67
    Great AB from Turang
  24. igor67
    Sal steadily creeping towards a .700 OPS over the last week.
  25. igor67
    Even if the Mets are picking up a good chunk of the tab on Alonso, that batting profile just looks not exciting. He hit 46 HRs last year and only had a .504 SLG. I can't really think of that big of a power hitter having that empty of a line. Mid 60's BB totals for that power output is really telling.
