Steamer has Craig's wOBA at .339 and Trumbo at .329. Tangibly worse!

 

Did we stop using counting stats this year?

The season needs to start. If we spend the next 26 days talking about Allen Craig I'm gonna lose it.

Cool now project playing time.

 

Craig is worth about as much as Carlos Quentin. You should just admit defeat and drop him for the dogs (and Kat) to fight over.

Nope, give me the Steamer 600 breakdown.

 

Steamer 600 is irrelevant for a part time player.

Dinger is really dumn

 

I think you're all really dumn for counting out a guy who had 3 straight .360+ wOBA seasons before 2014. That's fine though, we'll see what becomes of him and you can all laugh at me some more if he's cooked. And if I'm right, none of you will ever hear the end of it (obviously).

Let's cut to the chase and make a bet on it. Better wOBA, min 300 PAs.

 

wOBA is basically a wash according to projections. Fangraphs DC has Trumbo at 0.339 (godawful!) and Craig at 0.328, but Craig is probably a platoon player this year, so that gives him an edge. Overall fantasy value is not close those though.

is JaysBlue alive? i sent him a pro-board PM a while ago and he hasn't responded. Haven't seen him on here either (that I can recall)

Trumbo didn't have any fantasy value last year either, so I don't know why you think you have a leg to stand on. He was a big contributor to my PL relegation.

Some people have the rather ugly habit if completely ignoring any messages or trade offers that they don't like.

 

The trick with jaysblue is to send him a lot of really s***** offers and annoy him to the point that he'll grace you with a "lol no" reply.

We're talking about 2015.

Watching Dinger pretend that Allen Craig has any value has been rather fascinating

 

In reality he's a back-up outfielder. He won't have a starting gig in the majors unless he's traded or a few Redsox go down.

*a Red Sox goes down

 

And both are highly likely scenarios.

It has always bothered me that when referring to a single Red Sox player, you can't call him a Red Sock.

+ there's the fact that he swung the bat like Yuniesky Betancourt last year.

 

Just a gross player from multiple angles.

But seriously, if it will end the Craig talk I might be willing to send you Vargas for him if there's a pick coming back to me.

Fun Fact! Out of all qualified batters last year only 2 had a lower wOBA, Zack Cozart and Matt Dominguez.

You know what? That fact was a lot of fun.

 

Thanks!

You did? I don't have anything in my inbox from you, unless it was from a while back which might have got deleted. Send me a PM now.
