How the f*** did former org guy/utility nobody Ryan Schimpf hit 35 HR last season? If Miguel Sano or Joey Gallo had his season, I would have considered it a success.

Schimpf slugged .300+ at various levels, in various seasons. He played important positions. He walked a lot and didn't strike out an egregious amount.

 

The mistake was labelling him an org/utility player. A massive but not uncommon scouting failure.

 

There was probably some ageism and same batting average bias skewing all opinions of him.

Once he got out of the Jays organization, his career took off.

Face facts. Jays are good at developing pitchers, but we're probably the worst team in baseball for developing hitters.

We did develop him though. We just never gave him a chance in the majors. He hit at every level he was at.

That's a useless generalization.

Well, it took me less than three weeks to get annoyed with Andrew Cashner and drop him.

And that's what's wrong with our world.

He only said she was charging. Doesn't mean anyone's paying.

 

Well she's not charging an inconsequential amount so someone has obviously been willing to pay that dumb bitch to act like trailer trash.

This is a common opinion:

 

O Dizzle

1:39 What do you think of Tyler Glasnow struggles in spring training? Seems like he is still not ready for the majors until he can throw a good change up and improve his control.

1:40 Same thing I've thought about Glasnow for several years, he either develops those things or is a reliever. (checks watch)

I think everyone understands that the odds are against Glasnow becoming a front-rotation starter. He's probably not going to harness his stuff and he's probably not going to learn a changeup - A Francisco Liriano type starter career or high end bullpen arm are not unlikely outcomes though. And then there's the chance that he does pull the Aaron Sanchez and figure out how to command his pitches.

It is easier to learn command than it is to gain velocity and stuff at least. He's only walked 3 guys and struck out 9. Just appears to be bad batted ball luck.

I've decided to start charging $8000/hour for fantasy baseball advice.

Good luck with that.
