    No love for Anthony, who has shown more success thanBleis?
  2. moonslav59
    I should scream in caps like you: nobody says W-Ls or BA are useless. Just not as meaningful as you do. Your eye test, which translates to looking at box scores is the closest to meaningless of the 3 listed.
  3. moonslav59
    Yes, that’s why I added your point that W-Ls are NOT everything. You said it is important but not everything.
  4. moonslav59
    About as good as the top 12-15 pitchers in MLB, and top 3-6 of pitchers that are FAs, this year. Wow, what a stretch! I’m
  5. moonslav59
    He’s a top 30 pitcher in MLB, easily. To me, that makes him a#1 SP. You value wins more than I. I value the last 3 years much more than career numbers. You may disagree, but I’ve been pretty consistent with my criteria. Last 3 years, 500 + IP, Monty places 12 fWAR (1.5 above Bassitt) 12 ERA- (just 1 below Bassitt) 13 xFIP (15 IP less thanCB) 15 K-BB% (just behind CB’s rate) 17 IP (0.17 better than CB) Most of the stats I like show he is about equal to Bassitt. If I drop the IP to 300, here are the fWAR rankings of the FAs, this year: 4. Nola 12. Ohtani 17. Monty 18. Gray 19. Snell 22. Kershaw 30. Bassitt 40. ERod

    Let me guess: it’s the 39-14 record, although W-Ls are not everything.
  7. moonslav59
    Ive said who I like many times. One more time: 1. Yamamoto- 25 years old makes him the best dice roll. 2. Montgomery- no lost draft pick and has been about as good as almost anyone the last 3 years. 3. Gray- lose the pick, but short terms deals lessen the risk. Ohtani- too expensive. Snell- lost draft pick, walks too many batters and too expensive.
  8. moonslav59
    Yes, and how did they get there?
  9. moonslav59
    Hundreds of times: too funny.
  10. moonslav59
    No specifics as expected.
  11. moonslav59
    Where am I arguing about who will do good?
  12. moonslav59
    Nobody is trying to convince you. Nobody thinks any pitcher available is a lock ace. We can keep being Tampa North and endure your wrath, or we can overspend to get back to relevance and endure your wrath. Why not tell us your suggested route to go with actual specifics?
  13. moonslav59
    Snell is 29-25!
  14. moonslav59
    He’s as good as he is. His recent 3 years has been good. It may not continue. Yes, we are in desperate need of SPer. , and he’s one of the better ones available. He won’t cost as much as some nor lose a draft pick for us by signing him. (Never said you felt W-Ls were “everything.”)
  15. moonslav59
    Being trades is not being dumped due to the team not liking him. Monty is a good pitcher. We won’t lose a draft pick. I’m
  16. moonslav59
    Yes,I know. I don’t care much about what he did 4+ years ago. He didn’t pitch a whole lot until 3-4 years ago, anyway. Call him a journeyman and quote wi s and losses all you want. I disagree.
  17. moonslav59
    The draft choice tilts me to Monty.
  18. moonslav59
    He’s no “journeyman”
  19. moonslav59
    Yes, or 11, as each extra year should bring down the AAV.
  20. moonslav59
    Maybe nothing. Cohen may get Yama.
  21. moonslav59
    Hard to know on some of the far away pitchers.
  22. moonslav59
    Or, we just choose the squeaky clean crappy player, instead.
  23. moonslav59
    94 starts in the last 3 seasons. 121 ERA+ He turns 31, soon- just a little older than Nola.
  24. moonslav59
    We’ll see a shuffle in the rankings in December: Drohan drops Monegro and Gambrell rise
  25. moonslav59
    Of all the big 6, I like… 1. Yama- worth the huge gamble 2. Monty- better deal likely over Nola and Snell. 3. Gray- older but a shorter deal. Obtani- way too much money Snell- cost and walks Nola- gone
