Mexico not representing very well in the past calendar year.

 

When the Mexican League is sending their players they aren't sending their best.

Too bad he isn't a Chicago Cub

 

Could be looking at a long term contract if he was

 

Well the Dodgers are ran by Andrew Friedman who employed a convicted rapist for 3 seasons so he might end up ok anyway.

That's just Tampa Rays bargain hunting

Domingo Santana has a 132 wRC+ over 192 PAs. Fantastic right, a steal by the M's to acquire such a valuable player? Well, unfortunately he has -9 DRS and -8.7 UZR in LF, which makes him the worst defender in baseball by a mile and craters his value provided to only 0.2 WAR. Get this man out of the outfield FFS.

 

My fantasy team in the LOD doesn't care about his -9 DRS and -8.7 UZR :)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe Org was referring to your fantasy baseball team

Reports of his demise have been greatly exaggerated

 

Yes. I figured it was unlikely he was injured judging by the fact Boston extended him. They are not dumb, they have his medical records. While an unpredictable injury could pop up, the extension told us he was healthy as the far as the best organization in baseball could tell.

Tommy La Stella is having an absurd season.

 

122 PA / 10 HR / 9.8 BB% / 6.6 K% / .212 BABIP / .311 ISO / .272/.364/.583 / 156 wRC+

 

The high HR rate/low BABIP combo isn't even explained by his batted ball profile, as his FB rate (37.9%) is basically equal to his GB rate (38.9%). You tend to see that more so in extreme FB guys - La Stella is not that at all.

I think I heard them say his 10 HRs this season match his total over the previous 5 years...

 

The Angels sure have a ton of low K% guys...La Stella, Simmons + Fletcher are all <7%, K.Smith + Lucroy are just over 10%, Pujols, Trout + Cozart <15% (well Cozart is just over 15%)

 

That's pretty insane in today's game.

Ughhh...

 

Yeah it sucks, was hoping he'd be back mid season for my LoD team.

 

Anyway his doesn't sound as horrendous as this latest update on Cole Ragans...

 

Ragans (elbow) tore the graft from his Tommy John surgery and will undergo another surgery Wednesday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports. Ragans was more than a year into his rehab after undergoing Tommy John surgery in March 2018, so this is devastating news for the 2016 first-round pick. The 21-year-old now figures to be sidelined until midseason 2020, at least.

Is Maeda on a pitch count or something? That seems like a really random time to pull him, especially with him dominating.

 

Roberts does that all the time. Frustrating in fantasy sports.

Finished game with 12 strikeouts and drove in both runs in a 2-0 Dodgers win
