I stopped using my spreadsheet awhile ago, now it's just easier to tick guys off my watchlist as they get plucked.

Same here. Although my watch list is kinda gross at this point.

Yup. And all the players are pretty much the same anyway. Yahoo opened up just in time for these later rounds!

Derek?

Derek?

 

Yes ma'am

Holland

 

Ah nuts. Not sure why he fell quite so far. If you smush together his 2014 and 2015 innings, there's a decent sample that says he's at least an average starter, plus he's still under 30.

[Dr. Dinger]

We are now officially in DDL Waiver Draft territory.

That's what I figured, it'd be nice to pick up an average starter at this point in the draft. Now if only he could stay healthy.

Injuries

 

He was injured at the start of the year, but that was a freak rogue dog injury. He was healthy at the end of the season, no?

2015 he was out most of the year with a bum shoulder, 2014 he fell down the stairs at home (the dog one)

[Dr. Dinger]

Holland is a pretty hilarious example of the effects of HR rate variance. In 2014, he allowed NO home runs in 37 IP and had a 1.46 ERA. In 2015, his HR rate was 17.5% and his ERA was a ghastly 4.91. Add those samples together though, and the HR rate was a very typical ~10%, and his ERA snuck in under 4, while his K and BB rates stayed fairly consistent.

[BTS]

He missed most of the year because his shoulder didn't work, then came back throwing 90 with a <7% swinging strike rate. People are probably scared he went John Danks.

This is a risk I'm willing to take. Still better then drafting the actual John Danks.

Maybe that layoff for the dog injury allowed his shoulder to fully heal? His velo was right back where it always is, around 93 MPH.

We must be looking at different numbers.

And he missed most of the year because his dog broke his knee, get your facts straight.

Of course. I don't think it's a bad pick or anything. I'm just commenting on why I think he fell so far.

Pedro Baez, BOOM.

What? He came back from the 2014 dog injury and had shoulder surgery in spring training 2015, missed most of the season.

Pedro Baez, BOOM.

 

Who? Literally.

pitchf/x velocity on fangraphs has 90.6 for his fastball for 2015.

Nice. Baez is really good. Mattingly just preferred Jim Johnson in high leverage spots for some weird reason.

That only has 6 pitches recorded.

Next to the pitch type is # of pitches thrown, on the far end is min velo/max velo/avg velo

[The Cats Ass]

Of course. I don't think it's a bad pick or anything. I'm just commenting on why I think he fell so far.

 

I'd assume that's the reason. Plus he's probably been forgotten about since he hasn't done anything over the past 2 years.

Oh, I guess all his fastballs register as sinkers.
