Wow. How did TCA go from blossoming juggernaut to this in two years.

 

Not entirely sure, probably the sauce, but North and I sure aren't complaining.

 

If he wants to push two long term elite players and a currently elite player together to get one long term elite, then so be it!

He still has some nice pieces:

 

2B - Rendon

3B - Longoria

CF - Gomez

CF - Jones

OF - Upton

OF - Stanton

 

Strasburg

Ross

Wood

 

Rotation is pretty gross actually, but once he trades an OF for a 1B he should have a top-5 lineup.

Coming into this season, Puig had the same career wOBA as Stanton.

 

I remember someone talking before the season about how secret fancy stats suggested that Puig won't likely be elite going forward, and that's happened so far.

Your precious projections say .360+ wOBA ROS.

I know, but the person was talking about stuff beyond what the projections know about.

There could be some interesting real life award races this year. AL Cy is up for grabs and should provide loads of conversation. ARod deserves comeback player of the year but with Pujols and Prince in the conversation they will have good enough choices to not pick him. NL rookie of the year has gone from a done deal to a legit race. There are a few two horse races too

Was it me? I had a gut feel on Puig (and someone in my ear)

No, someone else I think

HitFX wOBA.

 

Injuries have muddled the picture though.

It was the cheating robot who has access to that crap. Also, North's xSlash doesn't pain Puig in a flattering light either. Had I acquired him, I would have sold ASAP.

 

E: Seems like TCA would have been better off trading with me, but good for Min getting that haul.

Dinger pretty much round two for TJS for your beloved Jose Fernandez........ Shoulder stiffness is never good.

 

I might as well take him off you hands for you

I told you guys repeatedly how bad Fernandez' mechanics were, but you wouldn't listen.

I know absolutely nothing about pitching mechanics, but I thought I heard multiple people say his were pretty much perfect. Not the case?

Oh god no. Inverted L causing very poor timing. The added stress on his arm probably helps his velocity but increases risk. Playing with fire

this is why I never turn down an offer. I'm just never around to know the info in time to actually take advantage of it.

 

Speaking of time, I'm back to non responsive for the next week unless I'm checking threads from the basketball.

Any rebuilding teams want to trade an old, middling SP for a newly appointed young closer with 11 K/9? Tommy Kahnle has been tabbed for the job and has nice peripherals.

Walking 5.53/9 and FGDC projects a 4.12 ERA. He's probably not long for a closer's role.

Plz stop trying to wet blanket Dinger's sell job.

11 K/9, throws gas, 55% GB, actually I think he's well-suited for Colorado and it's not like they have much competition for him.

You can sit and poo poo someone, as many of you did when I picked up Familia in the waiver draft, or you can proactively take a chance on a guy who has nice profit potential, and who could hold a closing job for a long time with plenty of Ks.

He's just angry cause he turned down Kahnle for Fister a few days ago. Regrettable.

Yoan Moncada is finally looking scary. Crushing the ball lately and 31/33 in steal attempts in just 61 games - didn't expect him to have that type of stat line speed.

A few months ago, several prominent members of this league had left Cargo for dead. He's got 2 more HR today, bringing his wOBA up to .375.
