LOL. I just looked 'em up.
-
He was good from 2012 to 2016 and in the short 2020 season. My point was about only his last 5 years. I'm not sure how to find his OPS against for just that time period. He hardly played in '17. .717 in '18 .668 in '19 .410 in '20 (just 84 PAs against) .715 in '21 Those numbers aren't all that bad. He appears to not let up many hits- just BBs. Maybe, I was a big harsh.

I'd be thrilled to get .200/.700 from JBJ. -
With a 5.5 BB/9 rate over the last 5, I don't think it was all that hyperbolic.
-
Don't tell harmony this!
-
It might hurt, if Vaz does not bounce back on "o". Having 2 guys under .670 can be very harmful.
-
I think I'm being fair. The guy has not been good for a long time, and he gets the rare 2 year deal from Bloom. (Kike & Sawamura) Diekman has had a WHIP above 1.31 since in 4 of 5 seasons since 2016. His only season below was the short 2020 season. It's at 1.361 overall the last 5 years. His FIP is a decent 3.84, but that BB/9 is a killer (5.5). The 12.0 K rate is very nice, but when you walk 6 for every 12 you K, I'm not impressed. He has a 2.3 bWAR in the last 5 seasons, which is less than 0.5 per season. His fWAR is 2.0 or 0.4 per season. Fair is fair.

Aparicio was one my faves, as was Burleson. I only knew Rico as a 3Bman.

Significant Losses: .816 Renfroe (572 PAs) .957 Schwarber (168) .915 Iggy (64) .843 Shaw (48) That's about 850 PAs Now, look at the additions by subtractions: .567 Marwin (271) .497 Cordero (136) .597 Santana (127) .549 Chavis (82) .522 Lopez (16) .182 Munoz (11) That's about 650 PAs. These are in between (will they play more or less?) .769 Arroyo (181) Team OPS was .777 .643 Arauz (75) .578 Duran (112)
-
Dalbec did about as well as Schwarber in the second half. Arroyo is still going to play and should get more PAs than 2021, so why are we "subbing him out?" We may add someone like Schwarber, again, at the deadline. Our O should be just as good. Expect a bounce back by Vaz.
-
He hasn't for years. I'm not sure why he got 2 years.
-
Here's the rub: Cora gave these guys this much rope: OPS .567 Marwin over 271 PAs in 77 games .497 Cordero over 136 PAs & 48 games .597 Santana over 127 PAs & 38 games .578 Duran over 112 PAs & 33 games Chavis & Arauz had 157 PAs combined and an OPS around .600 But, then again, he stuck with... Renfroe after 68PAs at .485 to start the season. He went .859 in his last 504 PAs of the season. Kike (some at leadoff) after 222 PAs at .650 to start the season. He hit ,874 in his last 363 PAs and then absolutely raked in 52 postseason PAs.
-
You and others, yes. I don't miss Beni.
-
He made easy plays look hard.
-
You said the same thing, last year.
-
Hasn't been for a while... He hasn't had a WHIP below 1.31 since 2016.
-
That's pure fantasy!
-
Are you and 700 the same poster?
-
What ever you do, don't scratch your head.
-
lmao!
-
Do they have a head scratcher emoji?
-
But, won't throwing the ball increase the risk of another injury?
-
Exactly, but I do think saying he was moved from the pen to the rotation was accurate.
-
If Sale was starting, would Houck be in the initial starting 5? IMO, he was slated for the pen, until Sale got hurt.
-
Yes, Houck and Whitlock are the starter depth. Maybe Winckowski, Crawford or Seabold can surprise, but as of now, the two guys from the pen are it. Cora has worked wonders with suspect pens, so maybe he can keep that mojo going.
