Who should make the post season roster?

 

Please rank them in declining level of trust from most to least trustworthy

Who should make the post season roster?

 

Please rank them in declining level of trust from most to least trustworthy

 

Osuna

Grilli

Biagini

Feldman

Liriano (if hes not in the rotation)

Cecil

Benoit

Barnes

---------

Loup

Tepera

Shultz

Girodo

Dragmire

[Seanie]

Benoit below Cecil, even Feldman, is incredibly stupid. Cecil's velo is down, he sucks again.

[RealAccountant]

Believe it or not I dont think Cecil is a guarantee at all to make the post season roster

 

Lineup

RF Bautista

CF Pillar

LF Saunders

DH EE

1B Smoak

C Martin

3B Donaldson

SS Tulo

2B Travis

 

Bench

C Navarro

OF Upton

INF Barney

OF Carrerra/Pompey

INF Goins

 

Thats 14

 

Starters

Sanchez

Stroman

Happ

Estrada

 

Thats 18

 

So 7 relievers

Osuna

Benoit

Grilli

Biagini

Liriano

Feldman

Cecil

 

But if any of Schultz, Tapera, outshines in September, I'd take them in over Cecil, Especially if I can bring in Liriano as the Lefty. If he is in, I honestly don't see a reason for Cecil.

[G-Snarls]

Cecil still worries me

 

Osuna, Grilli and Biagini are clearly tier 1

 

Then Benoit, Feldman and HOPEFULLY Barnes

 

Tepera and Loup are way down for me

[KevinGregg]

Benoit below Cecil, even Feldman, is incredibly stupid. Cecil's velo is down, he sucks again.

 

I 100% trust both of those guys more than Benoit

[RealAccountant]

By the way I definately think we will carry 2 infields and 2 outfielders.

[KevinGregg]

Osuna, Grilli and Biagini are clearly tier 1

 

 

Interested if anyone disagrees with this

[G-Snarls]

By the way I definately think we will carry 2 infields and 2 outfielders.

 

I'd kind of like a 5 man bench, yeah, but who?

 

Navarro

Barney

Upton/Smoak

Carrera or Pompey

 

??? (both Carrera and Pompey, or Goins?)

[RealAccountant]

I 100% trust both of those guys more than Benoit

 

Benoit has been lights out, even touched 96

 

That statement is crazy, not to mention Benoit has successfully pitched in some huge games in the playoffs.

[mellowgold]

1. Osuna

2. Grilli

3. Biagini

 

 

4. Ben wah

 

Everybody else makes me nervous as hell

[Terminator]

So based upon a 1-10 scale where 10 is trusting that reliever to babysit my yet to be conceived (as far as I know anyway) first born child and 1 is I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them here is what I'm thinking.

 

Osuna - 10

Grilli - 9

Biagini - 9

Barnes - 4

Benoit - 4

Feldman - 3

Loup- 3

Cecil - 1

Tepera - 1

 

That's pretty damn subjective but if Cecil came in to a tight late inning playoff game I'd probably be s***ing my pants the whole time he's out there.

[BigCecil]

Benoit below Cecil, even Feldman, is incredibly stupid. Cecil's velo is down, he sucks again.

 

.363 BAPIP against him with an 18% HR/FB

 

His avg FB and CB V is down 0.3 MPH. Barely discernible. the issue has been FB command and the sharpness of the CB break.

 

Keep putting him out there in lower leverage and hope he gets some luck and some confidence back, because we could really use him.

[Seanie]

Osuna

Grilli

Biagini

Benoit

Barnes (hard to say)

Feldman

Cecil

Tepera

Barney

Schultz

I don't trust Cecil at all right now but you're right, he's got the talent to become nails again. We could really use him down the stretch.

[Boxcar]

I miss Gavin Floyd =(

[KevinGregg]

Benoit has been lights out, even touched 96

He hasn't allowed a run, I think that's caused some people to over value him. 5.56 k/9 in august, 4.33 xFIP in august. Cecil and Feldman actually lead the team in bullpen xFIP for august, and are the only pitchers along with Stroman to have a sub 3 xFIP in August

[G-Snarls]

I don't trust Cecil at all right now but you're right, he's got the talent to become nails again. We could really use him down the stretch.

 

I hope Gibby continues to give him lots of chances, even though I'll be biting my nails every time for a while yet

[G-Snarls]

I miss Gavin Floyd =(

 

I was just thinking the same thing

 

While simultaneously thinking how much I DON'T miss Venditte, Storen and Chavez

[Seanie]

Cecil... Lots of chances in blow-outs (8+ run lead)

[G-Snarls]

Storen ERA 4.35 and FIP 4.11 with Seattle

 

K/BB ratio 2.0

[RealAccountant]

I wouldn't pitch Benoit ahead of Biagini, but this is not the season to Trust Cecil. He simply isn't getting the outs this year. Now if he comes back better, he comes back better.

 

For now though, I don't want him in any important game.

[Terminator]

I miss Gavin Floyd =(

 

For a while there he looked he would be another Biagini for us.

[King]

Storen ERA 4.35 and FIP 4.11 with Seattle

 

He broke though.

[RealAccountant]

I'd kind of like a 5 man bench, yeah, but who?

 

Navarro

Barney

Upton/Smoak

Carrera or Pompey

 

??? (both Carrera and Pompey, or Goins?)

 

Goins is definitely in, you need 2 infielders on the bench in the playoffs. Especially with Fragile Tulo.

[G-Snarls]

Gotta say, I don't envy Gibbons... this 2016 bullpen has not been easy to manage

[RealAccountant]

Now if Dickey is lights out in September, then we have some real Roster issues.

[BlueRocky]

I 100% trust both of those guys more than Benoit

 

Since joining the blue jays, Benoit has played in 15 games with an ERA of ZERO and WHIP of 1.186.

How is he below Feldman and the corpse of Brett Cecil?

[Captain Adama]

Surprised Feldman hasn't been getting more love. Outside of two bad outings, he's been dynamite. The projections lIke him too.

Because his walk and strikeout rates are s***?
