TheHurl Site Manager Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 You're getting Big Fern back this week though! How exciting is that!? I will say that I look forward to having Synder, Fernandez and the best pitcher in the minors.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 And still 1st (2nd?) place. The margin for error in this league is huge. We must all be dumn. I guess so. It helps that I got Archer for late 1st round pick (thanks!) and Freeman for 1/2 of Byron Buxton. I'm pretty sure the average age of my lineup is like 34, though.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 I will say that I look forward to having Synder, Fernandez and the best pitcher in the minors. When did you get Giolito?
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 I'd take either over Glasnow, but give me Gio over Urias for the ceiling play.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 How do you figure Giolito has a higher ceiling than Urias? r u dumn!? I actually thought Hurl was talking about Justus Sheffield though.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 KingKat I own Robbie Ray! Sorry about that. I just sorted by pitcher's starting tomorrow and he was the only name.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Its clear he does... cummon Boxy no bias really
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 I will say that I look forward to having Synder, Fernandez and the best pitcher in the minors. And all I have is a broken down 3B.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 [quote=Boxcar;639501 I actually thought Hurl was talking about Justus Sheffield though. Have you ever known me to pimp up a pitcher I drafted?
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Why does Hurl think he owns Keury Mella? smh
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 I didn't want to have to do this but... ALEX REYES, 13.4 K/9
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Every time I watch Domingo Santana play the OF he does something stupid.

BTS Community Moderator Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 His last two starts he's gone 18 scoreless innings with a 19/1 K/BB. He's ridiculous.
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Man, I thought I'd love owning Ian Kennedy. I have not.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Um, there's a strong case to be made that he hasn't even been the second or third best starting pitcher in the American League...
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Um, there's a strong case to be made that he hasn't even been the second or third best starting pitcher in the American League... The only pitcher with a case is Archer.
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=sta&lg=al&qual=y&type=6&season=2015&month=0&season1=2015&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&sort=3,d Before 8 shutout innings tonight. Keuchel should be the CY favourite.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Um, there's a strong case to be made that he hasn't even been the second or third best starting pitcher in the American League... I assume the case Cameron is referring to is an RA9 based one. Keuchel is leading AL in RA9-WAR with a figure higher than that of any batter. He's pitched a ton of innings without giving up many runs. Does that value belong to him? Maybe, maybe not. Depends on your definition.

He's pitched a ton of innings without giving up many runs. Does that value belong to him? Maybe, maybe not. Depends on your definition. IMO Keuchel is similar to Dickey in that RA-9 WAR is the best way to evaluate him. Not only does he induce weaker contact than anyone, but he might be the best defensive pitcher in the game. He's on track to throw like 250 innings with a 2.50 ERA that might actually reflect his true talent.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Won 12-2...11-2...now up 9-2, this doesn't bode well.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Sale has been vastly superior to Keuchel, BTS. I don't even know how you could make an argument to the contrary.
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Won 12-2...11-2...now up 9-2, this doesn't bode well. Sent you a PM.
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Sale has been vastly superior to Keuchel, BTS. I don't even know how you could make an argument to the contrary. Sale 2.87 ERA 2.30 xFIP in 103 innings Keuchel 2.03 ERA 2.79 xFIP in 124 innings I think it's a wash. Sale just does it in sexier fashion.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Surely you realize a .238 BABIP is not sustainable.
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Surely you realize a .238 BABIP is not sustainable. Neither is Sale's K-rate. I'll take Sale going forward, obviously, but so far in 2015 I think it's a wash.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Geez, my boy Montgomery with back to back CG shutouts, this one a one-hitter. Looking like a possible keeper.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted July 1, 2015 Posted July 1, 2015 Clint Frazier and a 1st to me V-mart to BTS
