  1. I know Contreras has played a lot lately CC and Caratini is Burnes' personal catcher, but you can't take him out of the lineup tomorrow. DH him.
  2. How are we getting it done with this lineup? Pitching and defense, my friends. Pitching and defense.
  3. And there's a win! Ace on the mound tomorrow.
  4. I never said he was a good fit for 1B. Just that he's statistically one of the better fielding 1B. You would think that if he wasn't a good fielder at 1B, they wouldn't have him playing 1B at all considering his below average bat.
  5. I don't know if we'd be over .500 if it weren't for the Contreras trade.
  6. Yeah, and he's missed what? 3? 4?. How many more plays has he made at 1B, particularly by getting to balls and making outs that the average first baseman doesn't. It's just that that doesn't get magnified like a missed scoop does.
  7. Ughh. We just have such a hard time piecing hits together.
  8. There's no reason why Turang should stay put at 1B here with two outs. Go for that extra run.
  9. Sure. But not Miller. There's nearly 1000 innings worth of evidence out there. A missed scoop here and there doesn't change that. Adames makes bad throws from time to time (as he did here) and he's a GG caliber SS. More you get the ball, as 1B and SS do, the more opportunities for mistakes.
  10. He's missed like 2-3 scoops. On the other hand, he gets to a lot more balls that the average 1st baseman, including Rowdy, doesn't get to. Scoops are just one part of the overall defensive profile at 1st.
  11. Yeah. Because all you see is the missed scoop. But have you ever focused on his range and the balls he gets to and makes outs on that few other 1B would...That's why the "eye test" is deceiving sometimes, and what advanced stats help highlight. .
  12. Rowdy Tellez is the one who's a defensive liability at 1B...
  13. Again, Miller has been one of the best defensive 1B in the game the last two years in 800 innings. He's not a defensive liability. That's a fallacy that keeps getting repeated.
  14. Not as much Wiemer because he's shown the power and the ability to hit it hard. Turang doesn't hit it hard, isn't walking, and is striking out a ton. The latter two are particularly concerning as those are things he did really well and was known for in the minors...
  15. Miller is a quality big league 1B (defensively). He just didn't make the play. Willy, a GG caliber SS, also didn't make a great throw.
