    TT!

    Totally different run scoring environments. That's what wRC+ accounts for. Alonso has been a lot better than Carter. Not comparable
  3. Brewcrew82
    This thing is so unreadable that I'm not even going to bother addressing it all. I will say Luke Voit has a better slashline at AAA this year than Hiura. That's factual and indisputable. AAA numbers mean next to nothing.
  4. Brewcrew82
    And he doesn't call that a strike....
  5. Brewcrew82
    Tigers just tied it up on a Kerry Carpenter grand slam.
  6. Brewcrew82
    I'll reiterate what I said. There's more blind faith in assuming that Hiura will upgrade the lineup given his demonstrated severe issues making contact in the majors over the course of his career and his stats since his rookie season. Any "swing changes" and AAA stats serve to reinforce that "blind faith". Luke Voit, for instance, has a better AAA slash line this year than Hiura. Hiura's talented, for sure, but I'll have to see it at the major league level to believe that anything has materially changed for him at this point.

    Give me a strike zone challenge system now.
  8. Brewcrew82
    Another one that's not even close....

    TT es en fuego.

    We know he was injured with right forearm inflammation. That's why he initially went on the IL and is the type of injury that tends to affect your hitting ability. Nothing "blind" about that, though you could argue to what extent it actually affected him. But judging by how his numbers completely tailed off starting in early June, I would say it affected him quite a bit. On the other hand your Hiura argument relies on AAA stats and a .765 OPS (Rowdy's was better in a much larger SS) that comes with the huge caveat of a 42% K rate. If you want to go further back for MLB stats, it doesn't help your argument either, because Hiura was absolutely terrible at the plate in 2021 and 2020.. There's more "blind faith" in declaring Hiura to be a surefire upgrade right now.

    That's what you get for relying on Willy to make contact.
  12. Brewcrew82
    Good god. That was not even close to a strike.
  13. Brewcrew82
    Okay one run not horrible.
  14. Brewcrew82
    Tellez was the best hitter on the team this year until he got injured around the end of May/early June. They seem to think he's a better bet for a bounceback than Urias.
  15. Brewcrew82
    Yes it is? Rowdy had a higher OPS last season. And the year before that. And the year before that. AAA numbers are irrelevant.
  16. Brewcrew82
    Looks like we're not going to be able to watch the game today.
  17. Brewcrew82
    Great, technical difficulties...
  18. Brewcrew82
    Because Rowdy has been a better hitter than Hiura the last three seasons..
  19. Brewcrew82
    No offense but your interpretation of my post is incorrect. I said one of those guys “and Rodriguez”. If I meant all of those guys, I would have used commas instead of slashes.
  20. Brewcrew82
    But that one run in 2011 when they had like 2% odds...
  21. Brewcrew82
    The most I would've been willing to go for Alonso is Quero/Frelick/Black and Rodriguez. Anything involving Chourio and Misiorowski and I would have balked.
  22. Brewcrew82
    I agree about trading Urias, but Turang has been good with the bat over the past month and is in there for his defense.
  23. Brewcrew82
    Sure, Wiemer's upside is higher, but what he is right now is borderline unplayable and there's a lot of risk with him. Meanwhile, you've got Taylor giving you above average production on offense and defense.
  24. Brewcrew82
    Black/Monasterio platoon at 3B should be the way to go moving forward imo.
  25. Brewcrew82
    Tyrone Taylor's value is actually rock solid. Been above average (100+ wRC+) hitter every season of his career with solid power numbers and above average defense everywhere in the OF. What you're seeing right now is a huge regression to the mean with how awful he started the year (due to not being fully recovered from his injury). Wiemer is going to have to look like a major league hitter at some point.
