    Wong is the player they traded for Winker, so Jesse’s salary didn’t actually add anything to the payroll. I was just pointing out that the largesse of his contract and the big-ness of his acquisition were being overstated in the grand scheme of things. They moved Wong to open a spot for Turang with the hopes Winker would bounce back to his pre-injury form and provide better DH production than McCutchen did for $8.5M the year before. Winker plus Turang was like $10M cheaper than Wong plus McCutchen.

    Wong made $10M in 2023, Winker only made $8.25M.

    I thought Contreras was the big acquisition of the 2023 offseason?
  4. sveumrules
    He was acquired via trade for Kolten Wong, not signed as a free agent.

    Fitz throws his third straight three up three down frame (two more K) to close out the 7 to 0 Wisco win and pick up his first ever save.
  6. sveumrules
    & a Luke Adams double scores Lara, 7 to 0 Wisco with still just one out bottom of seven.
  7. sveumrules
    Kuehner added a sixth scoreless frame (and two more walks) to his line before giving way to Brian Fitzpatrick who pitched a scoreless seventh (1 K). Jheremey Vargas has just gone deep bottom of seven, TRats now leading 6 to 0. And Luis Lara follows up with a double and steals third.
  8. sveumrules
    Tate Kuehner with five scoreless (1 H | 1 BB | 1 HBP | 2 K) on 56 pitches to start the day.
  9. sveumrules
    96th percentile BB rate versus 42nd percentile K rate seems pretty good to, wonder why that wasn’t circled?

    Awesome read, though I believe the first two “2024” should be “2023” talking about last year’s draft? Catcher definitely looks like the biggest hole to me at the moment. Quero’s injury muddies things somewhat at the very top, after that I’m not a huge believer in either of Miller or Wood to ever be more than 3rd catcher types. Then after that somebody like Corobo would still be around five years away even on the off chance he lives up to some of the Quero comps that were tossed around when he signed. Ideally they can nab a college backstop with a nice collection of defensive tools at some point.

    Somewhat arbitrary endpoints and all that, but in the first month or so back from injury (May 7th to June 5th) Wilken hit for a 93 wRC+ over 101 PAs. From June 6th onward he is at a 145 wRC+ clip over 130 PAs.
  12. sveumrules
    Always appreciate the additional context. Just glad it wasn’t a head or hand/wrist shot.

    Connor Scott two RBI single gives the Shuckers a 5 to 4 lead. Still no outs top of nine.
  14. sveumrules
    Eric Brown Jr. single and Ernesto Martinez Jr. HBP have two on nobody out for Biloxi here top of nine. Looks like Casey Martin is on to run for Ernesto, hopefully nothing too serious. & an Adam Hall double makes it 3 to 4, runners on 2nd and 3rd still no outs with Connor Scott stepping to the plate.

    Zona Crew drops a five spot top of one. Josh Adamczewski walk, Luiyin Alastre single, wild pitch, Eric Bitonti two RBI two bagger, Tyler Rodriguez single, double steal for run number three, Ramon Moreno RBI triple and a passed ball in a pear tree.
  16. sveumrules
    Josh Timmerman went three up three down three strikeouts bottom of seven for Carolina. Tyler Bryant now on bottom of eight trying to hold the 2 to 1 lead for the Mudcats.

    I guess I'm not following the purpose of averaging results together, especially ones over such a disparate range of outcomes. Which players will Keston's performance be averaged with this year?
  18. sveumrules
    Did someone say “Chattahoochee”?
  19. sveumrules
    Yeah. 100 wRC+ is league average, but Hiura won’t provide any value as a 1B/DH only player unless he is up around a 110 or so at the minimum because the bar for offense is higher at those positions.
  20. sveumrules
    I wouldn't call a 94 wRC+ productive for a guy with no defensive value limited to 1B/DH. League average for 1B and DH last year was a 111 wRC+ and 106 wRC+, respectively. Six of the 34 guys on the list (about 18%) cleared that bar - Westburg, Kjerstad, Horwitz, Raley, Lowe and Rooker.
  21. sveumrules
    Lots of interesting placements on the BA list. Boeve at #4, Wichrowski at #5 vs Henderson at #19, Letson over Knoth, Adams over Wilken. Also some interesting positions listed with O'Rae at SS, Baez still SS listed first, Clarke with the slash catcher despite zero games behind the dish at AAA this year, Dunn 2B after playing almost exclusively 3B this year.
  22. sveumrules
    12 of 34 are at or above 94 wRC+, yes. But that's a long ways away from the 115-120 wRC+ in your original comment.
  23. sveumrules
    The two legit Orioles prospects (Westburg and Kjerstad) plus Rooker and Horwitz are the only players to clear a 115 wRC+ in MLB. That is 4 of 34 or about 12%. If you include Lowe (114 wRC+) and Raley (112 wRC+) that brings it up to about 18%, so not sure where you are pulling over a third from.
  24. sveumrules
    He's getting a chance, what these numbers say is that guys who have hit similarly to Keston at AAA over the last few years haven't fared so well when getting an MLB opportunity. Hopefully he'll be an exception like Rooker or Horwitz, but the odds are stacked against him.
  25. sveumrules
    Brewers seem to be a very process themed organization, which I'd guess is a big reason Winker (0.71 BB/K career) and McCutchen (0.63 BB/K career) got more opportunities than Keston (0.20 BB/K career) at the DH spot.
