I agree. I'd probably predict this: 94 TOR 92 BOS 91 NYY 86 TBR 60 BAL
-
Sometimes, it's hard to know. They should be the faves to win the east, IMO.
-
If Diekman is worth $8M/2, McHugh should be worth $12-14M/2 or $17M/3.
-
The first of many to come, unfortunately. 2004 was so overdue!
-
The two players, yes, but the Pyth has nothing to do with off season moves.
-
The 5 slot is actually a highly valued slot- more so than #3 or #4.
-
Greatly appreciated!
-
That 72 season was my first, as a Sox fan. I remember it well. 40 years!
-
Then, we could have afforded McHugh at $10M/2 vs $8M/2 for Diekman-- or better yet, BOTH!.
-
YES! My bad. So it's about 800 good PAs lost and 650 bad PAs lost, and maybe about 400 iffy players still on the roster but may get more or less PAs in 2022- Arroyo, Duran & Arauz.
-
Yes, the comment was that his OPS was .740 the year he hit .225, so I came up with .200 (BA) and .700 (OPS) being more than fine, for me. -
I guess $4M is not a terrible gamble, and those numbers are encouraging.
-
He was a great fielder- back before metrics.
-
I didn't either. I was more surprised about the elusive 2 year deal than the $4M, and the fact that we added nobody much better. He'd have been fine as the 7th or 8th guy, but he might be more like 4th or 5th, to start.
-
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.
