    You think he'll get a starting job somewhere with his injury history?
  4. kreinbihl34
    Agreed do you think he signs on for two years and 2M?
  5. kreinbihl34
    You actually read my mind as who I want as the utility player. The only downfall is the lack of pop.
  6. kreinbihl34
    Agree and is why I prefer Scutaro over him. I would like an amazing defensive SS, but with a decent bat. That wasn't a possibility. So there were two moves, IMO, that seemed poised to happen: the signing of Scutaro or Petey being moved.
  7. kreinbihl34
    Fair enough. I'm not going to criticize anyone on the metrics they prefer, as all have ups and downs. But the one thing I will leave you with one thing. Tejada has had higher RF/G every year than 08 yet that was only his second year, excluding the 0.1, posting a positive UZR/150.
  8. kreinbihl34
    Also, and I'm not trying to criticize you, but I hate RF/G. I'm sure you already know the criticisms of the argument. That's why I'm only luke warm on OBP as well. Edit: What i'm trying to get across is the possibility that Tejada's home park, combined with his RF/g (also Kaz Matsui's postive RF/G) probably means he was lucky.

    Yeah, but for maybe me not studying the information well, I don't understand. The SS position is a harder position to play, but yet I don't agree with the bonus. I've looked through UZR, RZR and PMR, and the one I prefer is PMR. It's hard to find information on it though.s
  10. kreinbihl34
    Thanks. I've searched on the subject a little more, but still don't really like the park factor included for IF. By the graph you gave me Tejada would be credited with more than an out, everytime he recorded an out. Also I've read that UZR gives SS a +10 bonus, anyone else heard of this?
  11. kreinbihl34
    IMO it's been pretty known for a few years that Tejada's defense has been questionable and it's been a certain for him to make a move to 3B or 1B. I'm not a big fan of UZR/150 for infielders, it seems to be almost broken. It has a lot of adjustments and I think some of them might be actually helping out players. One of these factors is an adjustment for the park. This is needed for OF, but not for IF. I've done some research and can't find exact;y if the analysts take out this factor for IF. A few of my friends have talked about how it's almost useless. Does anyone know if they exclude Park Factors for an IF's UZR/150?
  12. kreinbihl34
    Did you just ignore the stats that were posted or can you just not read?
  13. kreinbihl34
    He's not my choice either. I'm in minority of moving Petey over.
  14. kreinbihl34
    The only problem I have is the defense is really really bad. I'd rather have an all glove, little bat SS for awhile. Then main objective, and I think it's an agreement, is getting another big bat here.
  15. kreinbihl34
    Because I'm lazy and don't feel like looking it up, what is your hopeful idea of the SS solution?
  16. kreinbihl34
    Calm down. That source isn't creditable.
  17. kreinbihl34
    Agreed, two years would make the deal tolerable.
  18. kreinbihl34
    I hope it's not true. The known fact is that the SS is going to be league average at best, though I was hoping for a younger and cheaper league average. If the source is right, that's an ancient side of an infield.
  19. kreinbihl34
    Knowing the luck the FO has had with FA in the SS area the past few years is enough information to have a pessimistic view point on the subject. It will be an improvement, but I'm not sold on we'll get a great SS. Oh and I feel the need to not trust that source.
  20. kreinbihl34
    If we get Holliday it's a slight improvement, but still a wash. The catcher position will be improved, but Varitek actually was doing quite well in beginning of the season. SS should be improved also. But IMO the overall improvements for individual performance and possible free-agent signings it still favored for the Rays. The only way to compensate is a trade for a big bat that will vastly improve what we got out of Lowell last year. Also a #3 SP would be a nice addition, though I doubt it occurs. The 3,4 and 5 spots are way too questionable in my eyes still.
  21. kreinbihl34
    It's really not the upgrades that are the factor, it's more of the people that performed badly last year are likely to improve. Upton had another down year, but I still feel he has the 20+ homerun power he showed in '07. Burrell's year was terrible and should be better. Also the catcher spot will be more productive. Even after all of that, Longoria is another year older/better, as is Price.
  22. kreinbihl34
    So who are the Yankees going to put in the two-hole for the other 80 games?
  23. kreinbihl34
    Because then he won't have his foot in his mouth.
  24. kreinbihl34
    Did you care to look up 2006 or 2008 stats? You would find that he actually did better away from Fenway. EDIT: Dipre beat me to it.
