Casas would outhit Dalbec today.
-
Now this is a classic TS trade proposal. Just lump a whole bunch of s*** and try to get an All Star.
-
I don't think they do it either, but it's a fair trade if they are looking to compete this year.
-
I wouldn't counter with Bello. That seems like a non starter to me.
-
I'm not saying dump Dalbec. Just that he doesn't deserve extra leeway than Franchy. Maybe Franchy deserves a call up?
-
959 OPS last season. 705 OPS this season. Not sure I want to give him the rope though. It's similar to Chavis who played out of his mind when he first came up. Once the book got around, his performance suffered.
-
This and next.
-
So very true.
-
Yes? I'd probably counter with Houck and Dalbec, just because of Mata's current health status. I think the O's are still years away from competing. Mancini will be gone by the time that happens.
-
Mata isn't depth for this year and probably not even depth for 2022.
-
Mata can't stay healthy. I don't think he's the #1 pitching prospect anymore. The trade provides upside to the other team and immediate results for the Sox. I think it's a fair deal. Also, I don't think the high minors talent affects who the Sox take at #4.
-
Quintana had a 737 OPS in 1990. I don't think that was holding Mo back. Quintana was no Brian Daubach, that's for sure.
-
I'd DFA Santana for sure. I think Marwin is only sticking around due to his glove.
-
If they thought he was fragile, they wouldn't have sent him to the Olympic qualifiers. Too much pressure!
-
It's interesting because when you look at McCoy, it's basically N/S facing when standing at home. This causes the jet stream to really go left to right. At PP, you are facing N/E when standing at home. This causes the jet stream to really go push straight out to CF. I think it was only designed this way to squeeze the ballpark in next to the train tracks. If it was N/S facing, there wouldn't be enough room in LF for stands. The OF wall would basically be next to the train tracks.
-
Where'd you pull this from? When I calculated his home/road by hand, his SLG is BETTER on the road than at home? I get a 650 road slugging vs 524 home slugging.
-
He has 2 road HR's (5 games) and 1 home HR (6 games). He has 6 hits on the road and 6 a home. He has 13 TB on the road and 11 at home. The only difference is that he has more walks at home than on the road. It's hard to say that is due to WOO. He had a much worse home/away split in POR.
-
Trey Mancini for Dalbec and Mata.
-
A case could be made that Vaughn should have started 1991 on the opening day roster after having an OPS above 900 at AAA for the previous partial year. In 1990, he was just a beast playing for PAW and clearly better than everyone else on the field.
-
I think Cordero, solely due to his injury history, needed to start in AAA just for the reps. Unfortunately, the AAA season didn't start until May this year. Franchy probably has a higher ceiling than Dalbec. Should Dalbec deserve more leeway? No. He's played well the past week or so, but he has a streaky profile just because of the swing and miss in his game. If they thought Chavis would be an upgrade over Dalbec, Dalbec would be in AAA. I think we're stuck with Dalbec at 1b until Casas is ready because none of the other 1b guys can hit right now (Santana, Chavis, Marwin).
-
The worst would be if he's trying to overthrow to match better competition and then gets a long term injury on a meaningless game. However, I don't think there were many people clamoring for him to start games when 2020 started. He's been seen as a reliever for the past few seasons (and may well be one anyway).
-
The problem is that their need right now is starting pitching. Will Houck (pitched ok on Thurs) or Seabold (returning from IL and throwing bullpens) be ready to contribute this year? There was hope that Mata could provide innings, but that won't be the case.
-
Yorke's first ding dong. (982 OPS in June after starting slow this season) Also, Duran's HR was a walk off.
-
I'm always pro-rushing players that look ready to contribute (see: Devers). I don't buy into the theory that the Sox "ruined the career of Cla Meredith" or whatever.
-
When was the last time a guy was "stuck" in AAA for the Sox? Mo Vaughn?
