BTV allowed the M's to clear their OF with this trade: Dalbec & Lugo for Haniger & Sewald
-
He'll grab the best off the scrap heap or take on some salary for something better, maybe.
-
Yes, he can, but he likely won't.
-
Could be just the type Bloom swoops on.
-
His health is always the biggest question mark, and nobody ever knows the answer to that Q.
-
White Sox deal Kimbrel to LAD for AJ Pollock. Reports say the Red Sox were also inquiring about the RH'd Pollock, Makes me wonder, if Bloom is working on a deal, as teams look to trim their rosters.
-
Like we can't replace Ralphie, if Shaw sputters?
-
I'm optimistic on Hill. My only worry is his about his health.
-
Again, I was all for signing Suzuki at more than what he got. I like the Story signing but would have preferred Baez by a hair. I hope we keep Bogey, but when someone offers him an obscene amount of money, I would not top it.
-
He made some good points, and poof- my hopes were dashed.
-
I see Houck and Whitlock getting more innings. I had originally thought Seabold was ready for the bigs, but MVP talked me out of that hope. Maybe Crawford or Winckowski. Bello might impress enough to come up later in the season. I see Groome as a dark horse. Soxprospects has DHern, Brian Keller, Thomas Pannone and Kyle Hart as other AAA syarters and Belloe and Groome starting in AA.
-
It looks like we may need to pick 1-2 players not currently on the 40. I think the league should have increased to 40 to 42, when they went from 26 to 28.
-
I could see him at .220 18 58 .295 OBP .400 SLG .695 OPS -
I like Hill more than I liked Richards or Perez, at this time, last year. I like Wacha about the same as Richards and more than Perez. Neither is by a lot. Having Houck for a full season will help, and maybe more innings from Whitlock can make up the difference. As of now, I'm expecting more innings fro Sale, but maybe Eovaldi gives us less. I think our starters look about the same as they did, last March. (Remember, ERod was a huge question mark.)
-
Maybe the A's see something hardly anyone else sees, but I can't help but think we could have bettered that offer and hardly noticed our farm weakening.
-
How about Danish for a cup of coffee?
-
We could have given them 3 guys worth what the guys they got are worth. Even 4 or 5
-
lmao
-
So, you quit bashing Pivetta, for now. Good to see.
-
Incurable.
-
BTV has these values: 14.1 Manaea 0.2 A Holiday for 2.4 E Angeles 0.5 A Martinez Did the A's get cash, too? It looks like they got hosed. BTV equivalence Sox players: 2.6 Bonaci 2.6 Arroyo 2.5 R Hernandez 2.2 Murphy and 1.6 Cannon, Chacon, Wong 1.5 Liu 1.4 Lira, Lopez

And to think subjectivity does not play a role and that BA and other traditional stats are solid, concrete facts, and then accuse others of using WAR in the same way, which nobody does, is baffling, to me.
-
fangraphs is better for time periods (to the day, if you wish, which B-R can do under only the game log's page) and advanced individual team stats.
-
Like Old Red never goes "overboard" when defending his positions- many as warped as warped can be, I might add. It's only when he disagrees with an opinion that he: 1) assumes you are stating your opinion as fact (wrong) 2) going "overboard" defending it by actually using facts, data, and worst of all sabermetrics (wrong) 3) then, when you get him corners, he says something like "that's when I change the question" or some absurd catch phrase he likes.
-
One more thing about BA, and you've brought this up about fielding percentage, too. Who calls an error an error? A subjective person, so if one player gets a hit on a certain play, but another gets an error on the exact same play, their BAs would be skewed. Now, it all is supposed to work out over a long period of time, but errors are judged by the home team's scorer, not some unbiased person, so some players might be helped or hurt over the long run. Of course, one could and should argue the observers used in UZR/150 are subjective and biased, too, and they'd be right, but at least they are trained and calibrated and rotated.
