Which day off before the All Star break do you mean?
-
Well, he's still fattening his wallet.
-
Because random something something...
-
JD...hmmm....134 OPS+, 33 HR, 103 RBI in 113 G...looks like Big Bopper level there...issues are age/durability.
-
There's Turner.
-
Felipe had a career average of 1.0 bWAR per 162 games. He was halfway between replacement and average.
-
2.0 is roughly average for a player who plays about 150 games? Something like that. It's real math.
-
Timlin and Embree too.
-
Depends on how much the Angels would be willing to digest, of course.
-
We can't forget that WAR is a counting measure, not a rate measure. A 2.0 WAR is about average - but only for a full time player.
-
Remind me who had the higher OPS this year - Duvall, also a swhisher, or Yoshida, Mr. Contact?
-
Verdugo had an OPS+ of 100. Offensively, that's as average as you can get. Is his defense that much better than average?
-
I will offer a modern apology for this: "That's not me. I'm better than that."
-
The amazing thing is the Rangers lost DeGrom and Scherzer to injury. Montgomery and Eovaldi really stepping up.
-
Part of why Bloom is no longer with us.
-
Other starting pitchers of interest today for Sox fans, as looming free agents: Sonny Gray, Aaron Nola.
-
Rangers up 7-1 on Rays after 7. If the Rays lose, they will have lost 9 of their last 10 postseason games. Pitchers of record were subjects of much discussion by Sox fans, as guys we "almost signed" this offseason - Eovaldi and Eflin.
-
If the Rays lose this, they will have lost 9 of their last 10 postseason games.
-
I like Eovaldi a lot. Definitely like to see him beat the Rays. Rangers now up 4-0.
-
How is Chapman bad? He had a 3.5 fWAR this year, and that was the lowest for a full season in his career.
-
Maybe you can explain how.
-
Yes.
-
A tiny positive fWAR for a regular still sucks, though. Do you agree?
-
I'm good with either. It was notin who seemed to be thrown a little by JBJ's positive fWAR in 2014. Just trying to help him.
-
You're right, he's a great example of huge defensive value trumping weak offense. For his career, per FanGraphs, he was -69.4 RAR on offense, and a crazy 375.3 RAR on defense. Career fWAR of 67.6.
