  1. Valdez is a bad defender. I know someone on here stated that they saw him at SS for WOO and that he was good (didn't happen). I'm not sure he's a long term solution at any position.
  2. 1. Verdugo RF 2. Devers 3B 3. Turner DH 4. Yoshida LF 5. K. Hernández 2B 6. Casas 1B 7. Wong C 8. Duran CF 9. Chang SS Valdez has already been optioned back to WOO after going 2-4.
  3. Is the stadium the only thing in the area causing traffic?
  4. The worst current park is OAK by all metrics. It was serviceable 20 years ago. It's an empty crumbling shithole now. The Rays have 50% more fans than the A's.
  5. Not according to moon who had a lovely vacation there. It certainly allows us to ignore all the people that live in the area who state that the ballpark was built in the wrong location. What would THEY know?
  6. Right now I'm more concerned about 1st inning meatballs than walks. I'd take Senga over the majority of the rotation.
  7. And Happy Birthday to Fenway. May you be torn down and replaced sometime soon.
  8. Start early. @itsbrianbarrett Houck 1st time through the order .174/.296/.217/.514 2nd time through the order .318/.385/.500/.885 Huge gap!… not great if you are trying to make the case as a starter
  9. I believe that if the starts were random (that catchers weren't tied to a particular pitcher), CERA for McGuire and Wong wouldn't be dissimilar after a long stretch of time. When you look at really small sample sizes like we are now (Sale not pitching for years, early in the season, bad weather, different teams, bad luck, etc.), the numbers are effectively meaningless.
  10. Yes. Did you ignore the part where he said OPS was LOL random? That was hilarious. There's a reason that FanGraphs doesn't currently list CERA as a stat.
  11. It was fine. Need to see if Whitlock and McGuire can work well together too.
  12. @tylermilliken_ Jarren Duran’s first 3 games since being brought back up: 4-for-11 3 2B 2 RBI 1/1 SB 4/1 K/BB
  13. Let's check in and see how that outing went... After Taylor Broadway struck out two over four scoreless innings to open the contest, James Paxton struggled mightily in his third appearance (first out of the bullpen) for Worcester. The rehabbing left-hander got rocked for seven earned runs on five hits, two walks, and zero strikeouts in just two-thirds of an inning. Yuck!
  14. The article stats that the OPSa was RANDOM so they ignored the results in favor of CERA. LOL
  15. A fairer comparison IMO. Also, I don't remember a big furor over not re-signing Vaz.
  16. Are those 6 fans able to turn all those tv's on to get them into middle of the road status? Impressive work folx!
  17. And they are 9-10 right now? So close to those projections.
  18. Comparing a 3 year deal and a 5 year deal in this manner is kinda silly. Need to compare AAV.
  19. And give Whitlock's innings to McGuire.
  20. To do this, Woolner looked not at catcher ERA, but at batter OPS with and without the catcher, for each pitcher. He computed Z-scores, or standard deviations, to see if the observed differences in catcher/pitcher OPS were different from what one would expect by chance. He found the data looks almost identical to a bell curve; in other words, the differences observed among catchers appeared to be random. No kidding!
  21. Make Wong Kluber's personal catcher.
  22. I'd put the 'Canes popularity behind the Gators and the 'Noles. Gators might be the most popular team. Miami was more popular back in the day, but FSU and UF have a greater reach being public universities it seems, while Miami is a fairly expensive private one.
