what's cf stand for? Can I ask what you have against McAllister and Fields? You don't like live arms?

Trade for Zack McAllister and Josh Fields. Problem solved.

 

McAllister's 20% career line drive rate makes me think he will always perform worse than his peripherals, I wouldn't bet anything on him anyway. Fields would be good, but would cost a real prospect.

Fields is a pretty good suggestion, big K numbers and isn't too bad with the walks, his biggest issue would be being a flyball pitcher in the RC. Also, knowing the Astros, they'll ask for Pompey.

WHY IS "TENDER" AND "SHOULDER" CAPITALIZED? IT BOTHERS ME SO MUCH.

I'd be banking on McAllister being far more effective as a fulltime reliever...I read he was hitting 97 as a reliever late last year. He might have some Wade Davis magic in him.

1. 20% LD rate is above average. League average last year was 20.8%. (McAllister career is actually 20.8%)

2. LD% for pitchers takes around 700 IP to 50% stabilize.

 

Well then, for some reason thought league average was around 18%, still wouldn't want him because he would only be useful as starting depth, although it would depend on the price.

If that's the case he may be worth going after.
