Time for a poll: Sanchez or Stroman?

[Angrioter]

Everyone is going to pitch well in that ballpark and division.

 

It's about IP, Walk, K, HR/FB%

[ElNik2013]

I'll be watching..gotta root for the guy

 

Hope he proves this FO wrong for trading him

 

 

He would also prove them right for drafting him. Overpaid, no doubt, but they deserve credit for guys like this, Nicolino and Syndergaard. I certainly wish they hadn't gone all in, but it is what it is.

[G-Snarls]

Damn, DeSclafani's numbers are legit.

 

Yeah but but would have been a pain in the ass to type that name all the time

[theblujay]

It's gonna hurt when Synder, Desclafani and Nicolino are doing great and Sanchez becomes the next drabek.

[Jimcanuck]

Norris' A+ numbers much better than Sanchize. Norris new saviour?

[G-Snarls]

His nickname in Lansing was Disco

 

Now that's excellent

[ElNik2013]

D. J. Davis tonight: 3-4, HR, BB. He's raised his BA by .040 the last few days.

Good to see. If only he could cut down the Ks

[ElNik2013]

Man, I love prospects with plus plus speed, but those strikeouts are unsightly.

 

 

Yeah, no doubt, out of control. He also stole his 5th base of the season....and was CS for the 8th time.

[Angrioter]

D. J. Davis tonight: 3-4, HR, BB. He's raised his BA by .040 the last few days.

 

5.4% walk and 36.2% K

Average pop and tons of K's is a lethal combination

[TheHurl]

Nicolino isn't anything special

 

Still just last week Bowden was talking about how Nicolino would be a centre piece in an Utley deal for the Marlins. Even with the 3.82 K/9 he's still doing better than a 3 to 1 K to BB ratio. Sanchez has walked 5 or more 3 times this year....Nicolino has walked 5 in 37 innings.

[TheHurl]

Marlins really seem to target dealing for these guys who's K's don't match their stuff. Eovaldi, Alvarez, Turner, Nicolino

[Angrioter]

Could I change my vote?

[BTS]

Bump.

[G-Snarls]

Bump.

 

Well played

 

This was the guy to keep. Nice to see those projections for him being at least a 2/3 caliber starter holding up so far.

 

Such a (relatively) short development time post draft too. Beauty draft and development.

[NorthOf49]

I picked Stroman

Me too

 

Heck, I had a Stroman avatar at the time

Great pick, flawless development and progress from both Stroman and the org. A+, would watch again.

Me too. Heavily team Stroman here.

You've always been the board's #1 Stroman fan! You're looking especially smart at the moment.

[Angrioter]

Sanchez high ceiling over Stroman high floor

Sanchez high ceiling over Stroman high floor

 

IMO there isn't even much to suggest that Sanchez has a higher ceiling at this point. Stroman is just straight up a better asset.

[G-Snarls]

He has that 97-98 mph 2 seamer

 

But Stroman has a much more well rounded, fully developed arsenal

[NorthOf49]

As I posted in the GDT, Stroman is getting whiffs, avoiding walks and getting ground balls. He can be a TOR starter if he keeps that up. And nothing I've seen suggests he can't.

 

It's not like he had clearly inferior stuff either. Sits 94-95 with a wipeout breaking ball.

[RIPEXPOS]

Right now it's Stroman, and it's not even close. The fact Stroman can consistently throw strikes is one thing. But the fact he's doing it in the Majors is even better.

Good change up tonight too

 

Nice arsenal (yeah I like that term)

[theblujay]

Replace Stroman with Norris and we have a relevant poll.

As a starter his SSS GO/AO rate isn't impressive (.97), although they don't seem to be squaring up his pitches that often. I could see him having his fair share of long ball issue's all season, especially at the rogers centre.

[HASHTAGYOLOSWAG]

bandwagon

 

David Robertson 60 IP guy (Stroman) Vs Mat Latos 200 IP guy (Sanchez)

 

...

Who has the talent to become in the 2012's Verlander? - Sanchez
