    1. Jett. He has been inconsistent and doesn't really have a spot longterm. If he still has top 100 value he is #1. 2. Dinges. The bat has seemingly stalled in low A at 22. I think there is still alot of potential but I worry that he still has a long way to climb. 3. Fischer. Strikeouts and defense, I think ultimately he is a 1st baseman. With the strikeouts so high in high A, one cant help but be concerned. I would be hesitant to trade a 30+ HR, I would only trade him for a high end player with multi years of control.

    I'll be honest, I forgot about Henderson. He does need to show the ability to stay healthy but has looked like a potential solid 3 at least.

    Otto Lopez would be a great add, he probably would have a big price tag. I wouldnt be opposed to getting him if the price was right.
  4. jay87shot
    I like the Drohan/Patrick piggyback or maybe Gasser/Patrick situation. I have some faith in one of Woody getting healthy or Sproat getting it together (not both). I do think that we do need to start considering a starter add for the playoffs.

    What a great start by Misi, he wasnt at his best but he battled. I specifically loved in the 7th with 1st and 3rd and 1 out he wouldnt let Murph take him out. We're the high amount of cutters a reaction to Coors? Since the breaking balls are usually less effective do we think the cutter was the counter?

    Maybe I've missed a game or two but it seems like Dinges hasn't caught for a couple weeks. I know some other people have brought it up. Is there an injury he is still nursing? At 22 it seems like he is due for a promotion but the bat has slowed in May and he is catching very little. Any notes on weather to be concerned or not from some of you who watch more often.

    Sproat struggled in AAA last year and was a dude the second half. Maybe he is just a guy who needs a 4 month spring training.

    Pratt was 2/4 today with a 2B, he continues to inch his way to the bigs. Especially with Jett and Leonard going through slumps. Wilson had 11 bb today as a team, it seems like they get 10 walks every other day or so. Is it just bad pitching or do we have excessively patient hitters there? Probably both? Also it is wonderful to see Dorchies starting to gain momentum 5.1 inn. 1 run (0 earned) 4 h 3 bb 5 k. Hopefully he is rounding into form.

    What happens if the bill passes that any player who has played professionally oversees is not eligible for college? Would we have enough players to field a team?
  10. jay87shot
    Where is Woody? I know he's is relatively close. Could he be ready for the Crow spot in the rotation, if not the next start in 2. Yoho and Fitz sounds right to me for Crow and Woodford. If Anderson or Hall need IL I would be fine giving Waugespack a 40 man spots for a couple weeks until Lara or Jett get a call-up with super 2 criteria likely meet.
  11. jay87shot
    The Crow/Drohan/Gasser to Patrick and going 9 innings combined has been huge the couple times it has worked that way. The pen is rested for the day game. I feel like it is time to give Yoho some run in the bullpen. He has been so good in AAA, he really just had a blowup inning last year that put a sour note in everyone's mouth. I was hoping to see Hardin but it probably is a good idea to make him have more than 3 good starts to earn the promotion an 40 man spots. Gasser was solid.
  12. jay87shot
    Having Rengifo, Sal, Hamilton, Sanchez, Perkins, Ortiz all on the roster cant continue, after watching how bad our bench looked in the 8th and having 3 guys in a row who needed to be pinch hit for is bad. Especially when we have good players in AAA who can make this team better. I dont mind the waiting on Jett or Lara for super 2 purposes but we need some bats to lengthen the lineup.
  13. jay87shot
    Hall's walks are to high but he has been to good to send down in my opinion. 2.20 ERA is solid even if peripherals and advanced stats arent as good. Dont forget Lara coming up for Perkins likely, as well as Jett potentially.

    I am going to give a go at a mock draft here. 1(25) 2B Jarren Advincula. This one has many layers to it. His hitting profile fits well he is hitting .430/.502/.625 with 30/16 bb/k, he doesn't get high power or speed grade but he has 10 hr (15 2b/2 3B) and 16 sb. A major part of this pick would be to save a million or so on slot, it is hard to predict which players are open to that type of savings. He has played mostly 2B but I think we could add utility with some 3B or OF maybe even 1B if some power comes through. 2(66) P Carson Wiggins. Another potential slot saving pick. Wiggins has been a reliever but has a big arm and would be a big potential starters with some refinement. 3. OF Kevin Roberts Jr. A big young powerful athlete that has a ton of potential. As a HS guys he is ranked a little lower but if we could sign at slot the upside and potential would be worth it. 4. C Alex Sosa. This has a lot of a Dinges style feel for me. A bat 1st catcher that our org can work with behind the dish. Great power near 1 to 1 bb/k rate and a nice lefty bat. 5-10 college arms and bat to save money. My hope would be that we would save around 2-2.5 million with these picks before the 3rd day and could sign our usual 4-5 HS players in 11-20. The 1st 4 all have pretty solid upside because they have standout skills but would fit into our org nicely.

    Chourio has LF, as I mentioned I think Lara will be the CF come mid-June, that leaves Vaughn, Bauers, Mitchell, Frelick, and eventually Lockridge for 1B and RF. I am not for trading away one of our better bats but with potential shrinking playing time and no control beyond this year I think he would make the most sense. I would be looking to get a SS/3B not just unloading him for a prospect. I think Vaughn is the better bat long term and with the year of control a better fit. 3B/SS have been so bad getting an average player at one of those spots would be a bigger improvement. If we do have a roster crunch I would be OK with trading Vaughn, Mitchell, or Frelick for the right 3B/SS, I would just lean towards trying to trade Bauers because he doesn't have control after this year.

    Any chance the Dbacks would trade high on Nolan Arenado? They have Lawlar (on rehab) and LuJames Grover as long term options who are ready. They also could use an OF or DH, since they are in contention and would want mlb players. What about one of Bauers, Vaughn, Mitchell, or Frelick for Arenado. With Lara soon to claim CF that will put a stranglehold on playtime for more than 1 of those 4. Arenado as a vet would give our young guys some time, fix 3B, and we wouldnt have to pay him alot. We haven't discussed Isaac Paredes, Brett Baty, or Alec Bohm (playing better in May) in a while.
  17. jay87shot
    I would think 4/18 is very light. He is at .281/.353/.480 with a 133 ops+. His defense hasn't been as good as the past couple years but I would guess we could call him average. If you look at the free agent class this year it is exceedingly weak. I would guess a contract might be more like 3/24 at this point. I wouldnt mind extending him but dont forget we control Vaughn next year. To be honest I still like some combination of Burke, Adams, Fischer, or Bitonti long Iong term so 4 year seems to unnecessary. I wouldnt be against trading one of Vauhhn or Bauers at the deadline if it means getting a meaningful peice back. I am sold on Lara taking over at CF and being a dude. In that case, Bauers doesnt get OF playing time (especially when Lockridge is back). Since Vaughn has control next year, I would lean towards trading Bauers.
  18. jay87shot
    Last year Sal had a bad stretch and didnt hustle on a ball and got benched. It seemed to stoke his fire, I do think Lara should get an everyday chance in the bigs, probably when super 2 passes at this point. At that point it will be interesting to see what happens with Bauers earning some OF PT, Mitchell, Frelick, Lara, and possibly Lockridge getting close to return. Maybe trade one for a IF?
  19. jay87shot
    I would love Clement, however I think he is kind of a fan favorite and cheap with a couple years of control. One of the Rangers would work possibly as well. I wonder if the O's would consider Jackson Holiday. He has been hurt most of the year and hasn't played much SS the past couple years. Maybe he could play 3B, his youth would probably make Pratt or Jett part of the trade package. My guess would be no with Westburg injured and Mayo and Henderson having below par seasons.
  20. jay87shot
    Byron Buxton, I would love a SS/3B but I dont see a difference maker really being available. I will give a shout out to Reid Detmers, I think he is a guy like Harrison that has the tools to be a top line guy but needs to get out of LA. I think he is a cheaper under the radar Brewers style addition that makes sense. 4.57 ERA, 2.81 FIP, 10.7 k/9, 2.7 bb/9, 2 plus years of control, and cheaper arby years. Everything is there for a big turn around and a relative cheap price.
  21. jay87shot
    I would very seriously doubt they would trade him. He is 25 with a very reasonable contract through 2037 potentially. He is likely a 7-10 WAR player for a long time. After Shohei and Judge he is the best player in the league, with his age probably the most valuable long term. I would do terrible things to get him outside of Made and Chourio. It would take more than the Juan Soto deal in my opinion. Pena, Pratt, Fischer, Josh A, Henderson, Sproat, and Yoho would be close off the top of my head. To be honest I would let them take 2 pitching prospects with that offer and let them swap out Quero, Dinges, Burke, or Payne for any of the position guys.
  22. jay87shot
    I would love Jung but with the minor league IF depth getting close I would probably wait. Jung is hitting over .300 and with the control will cost a pretty penny. Now if we get to the deadline and Jett or Pratt arent ready than I can could be persuade to cough up the necessary price.
  23. jay87shot
    Great time for Bitonti to get hot, crazy that he is still 20. Oh yeah, Lara had another multi-hit game today.
  24. jay87shot
    It is nice to tie it up, however the Astos threw 2 legit strikes that inning. That had a chance to be a big one.
  25. jay87shot
    What do we like as our rotation going forward for the next couple weeks? Patrick today and going forward makes sense, I like the idea of Drohan piggybacking with either Patrick or Crow for at least a couple starts and then being a 6th starter (i think we play 13 in a row coming up). Sproat probably keeps going but is maybe looking like a good option as a 2/3 inning reliever if he can't get the big inning out of his system. Misi, Harrison, Patick, Crow, Drohan, Sproat ??? If Woody get healthy/right in a couple weeks he could slide into any of the 3-6 spots.
