G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Preferably the BPA at 9 is an elite hitting prospect Jackson 9 Nola 11 please Yeah, we really could use some more guys with solid hit tools in the system Enough with the high school pitchers for bit unless a must-draft one falls to you
flafson Verified Member Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 A huge part of the draft is a gamble anyway, so go big or go home.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Do you think Jackson falls to 9? Probably not, but you never know. I really hope so. I don't even care if he stays at C tbh. It'd be nice, but I really like his bat and I'm sure he'd have an okay glove in RF or something.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 WTF is going on in here? *sighs* We're tired of talking about Ryan Goins, that's what

G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Oh LOL OK, so some gay-ish to gay guy who likes backup catchers??

GD Old-Timey Member Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Of all the f***ing players why does Josh Thole have a fan club? f***, if that's the standard we're setting, Moogy deserves a fanclub too. They're of similar ability.

They're of similar ability. I dunno. Moggy's secondary pitches sound like they're all plus to plus-plus.

gruber92 Old-Timey Member Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 Gruber came Yup, that's why I've been gone for a bit. Much more where that came from, the floodgates have fractured.
flafson Verified Member Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 Yup, that's why I've been gone for a bit. Much more where that came from, the floodgates have fractured. I doubt much changed, still work in progress. Also, doesn't help that he only gets 2 AB's per game.
Bluejays0988 Verified Member Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 I have to admit I was one of the very few who thought he would be at least decent as a 9 hitter who would have great defense. After watching his AB's through the season so far its very clear he is in over his head and a change needs to be made somehow. Whether that be Kawaski(most likely), Diaz, or Drew (I wish).

John Lott ✔ @LottOnBaseball Ryan Goins is taking early batting practice. He is hitting a lot of line drives off Kevin Seitzer. At least he's hitting liners off someone haha

gruber92 Old-Timey Member Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 . 175 BABIP is not sustainable. Need another 5-6 weeks before rendering a decision. He's not here to carry the team offensively.

gruber92 Old-Timey Member Posted April 26, 2014 Posted April 26, 2014 It is when you hit weak groundballs to the infield 65% of the time. So All the ground balls he hits are weak? He's been hitting a quit a few well struck balls for outs, another one tonight. Talk about being bias.. Wow.
gruber92 Old-Timey Member Posted April 26, 2014 Posted April 26, 2014 Furthermore, his BABIP last year in the bigs was. 315. The numbers will eventually swing.
John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted April 26, 2014 Posted April 26, 2014 His line drive rate is 12.2%. Of his 5 line drives he has 3 hits. Which is .600 babip. The avg babip on liners is .700 but thats impossible to attain on 5 line drives. Let's say that last one was a liner, then he'd have a . 500 babip and you could make the case he's been " unlucky " and should have 1 more hit. Hardly enough to justify a narrative of "quite a few well struck balls for outs"
John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted April 26, 2014 Posted April 26, 2014 Furthermore, his BABIP last year in the bigs was. 315. The numbers will eventually swing. Yes it's likely that it will, but he'll have to actually make better contact first.

Talk about being bias.. Wow. Went through this already in the goins thread.... He's not getting hugely "unlucky" for his batted ball profile. You just don't want to believe the numbers. The numbers say he's maybe 3 hits unlucky on the season,and would have something like a .210 avg with a normalized babip.
