To be fair, both Mitchell and Frelick are 1st rd picks. Wiemer wouldn't have been ahead of them.
Chourio did pass him but Chourio basically passed all but the top 20-25 hitters in MLB these past 2months
Wiemer was blocked and we all knew the day was coming trading away 1 of the big 3 OFs. Love that he's in Cincy now. Park will help his stats.
Sorry but this July's hitting show Chourio has given and a 10yr cheapened contract make him the #1 in trade value. Who has a contract in the article better than Chourio? What's stopping Chourio from not being as good/better than the July he's having?
I have no clue what acquiring Montas is about? The Fip is near 5! And its been on the rise throughout July. If you are including Junis in the trade, just trade him separately elsewhere.
I dunno. Nothing good via statcast.
He has great numbers 1st time through the order. Pretty sad after that. Looks like he should be a 9 batter opener or your cleaner on blowout games that can eat up 6innings.
Just because I was such a believer in Wiemer, does the trade hurt. I understand that body maturity and swing never happened. Great team for him to be traded to.
Some moves like Mears you think we may steal a win or two down the stretch. This one has vibes of losing 1 or 2 more.
Yelich has 21 SBs with 1 CS. 28 vs 3 last season. Think of the OPS run as a Pitchers Fip? I Dunno but it's not hard to figure out. Now I imagine being picked off on the base a runner is on isn't counted as a caught stealing. So you'd remove 1 TB for those too.
There is baserunning aspect I'll want in .my lead-off hitter. I've said this before among OPS, there should be an addition(or subtraction) OPS/Run.
Turang finds his way on to first and steals 2nd/3rd base. A walk/single nets a 1.000 OB/slg each. If Turang hits a double its 1.000 ob /2.000 slg.
That would increase the OP(Slg) side. You would remove 1.000 of slg if caught out on the basepaths.
Either way Turang has definitely been more addition on the basepaths than subtraction. My OPS-Run number can then paint Turang with higher OPS value than just that stat itself. Yelich would show off being a much better player via OPS than he already is. The point is it's tied to a number vs some baserunning stat off in a differently scored category.
Edit add. So Turang has 31SB and 5 caught stealing. +26 overall. So taking the Total Bases figured for slg and adding 26 to it the number comes to round up to .440 heading in to today's game. Jumps him to .767 (OPS run) vs .695 OPS. And we know he was much higher not long ago.
You're right. I went back and checked. The stat category I based Sal and Blake were Rbat category and I see I did Jazz under Rrep. Jazz in the Rbat is at 0 versus a negative.
Was trying to make a point on Jazz improving, in this instance, Yankees offense or a trading team's offense over Sal or Blake.
Sanchez I believe as signed to be traded mid year because we had a healthy Quero back then who should have been ready by now. Haase can remain as backup catcher and Crew still get their Sanchez trade to help out the roster crunch.
WAR has 2 sides. Hitting and Defense. Frelick and Perkins win playing their defensive position.
Jazz isn't a typical OF and provides negative defense playing out of position. BRef has both Perkins and Frelick below 0 runs producing from a replacement level player. Jazz is +15. Pick and choose what player version you need on your team for 2+months.
The more I look in to the trade the more sense and steal on the Brewers end. Blalock is on the 40man being protected. Moved to AAand his numbers didn't show improvement. Definitely needs another full season down in the minors before maybe helping a team. Victim of lost 2020 season.
Herrera I think shows some potential. Not sure if as a SP. But is now 4years getting to Aball. So rule 5 is coming and I'd assume not wanting to add to 40man. Amazingly Bref has his splits for season. One that stood out was older vs younger. Quite the gap on older batting better vs the younger. The timing is too far away.
Go to BRef and advanced pitching, Mears has nice improvements from last season. Colorado looks to have picked him up of waivers from Texas. Brewers Probably had their eye on him but were beaten on waiver claim order. Multiple years of control and immediately helps the team. Good trade. Sorry to Blalock.
Seems White Sox are valuing Crochet very highly. Miserioski probably begins their trade ask. Crochet reads as basically done as a SP this season. Brewers would be better off using Miserioski at RP as season winds down and a SP again next season, than acquire one.
Eric Brown is the new Corey Ray. No hit, no power failed 1st rd pick. You can send a bag of balls with him for a team to take him.
Black is the new Hiura. No defensive position to play at.
No team is taking Perkins til after the season. Hoby? Yes dump the trash for a cost controlled SP? How soon should that GM be fired?
The other 2 proposals are fair. Easily beat but fair.
Devin Williams returning is like trading for somebody in itself. Even DL Hall can be a RP addition.
Black doesn't fit Miami's organization target. They don't want him, Frelick, Wiemer,Mitchell. That's not their culture. They would likely take quite a few of the international signees down in the organization. Not sure a pitcher exists though on that end.
I was trying to make a response for or against Miller. But in seriousness no to Miller with no options for their team control. And no in that there's just no trade between these two that benefits either side for 2024. We don't pair up.
As for Miller, it's maybe time to put overhyped on them. After A+ball, their numbers are that of a #4. Statcast shows his heat map being one filled with pitches middle middle. It's not poor luck. It's setting a ball on a tee and hoping the batter doesn't make contact. The only pitch of 5 that isn't middle-middle is his sinker. Which they throw the least.
Um. So there's Jesse Winker having an over 800 OPS currently with .380 OB. Does that work as a platoon bat from Hoskins? Gotta be a low asking price. Seems like the kind of move FO would make.
Just an arm to use for a few innings. Think I read he went 4IP on debut. Then was bad. I would guess he was to be one of those get called up for 1 start that gets them whatever doing so via insurance or what not. Did so well, the Mets had to keep 1 more game. Jay will get 1 or 2 appearances before let go which is probably more appearances that who they gave in return.
Maybe Milwaukee sees that with the extra minors pay, more HS picks will sign with the 150k or more signing bonus. There's also blocking other teams from drafting some of these kids. Signed or not.
4-4 since returning on Quality Starts. Freddy is 4 for last 12 starts and continues back is 4 of last 16.
Freeland will have no trouble pitching as a SP through end of season. Getting him not only out of Coors, but the offenses bought and paid for in the NL West, to the poor offenses built in the Central? Think there's hidden upside that for the money is low 20-30 prospect rank headliner.
