    B-R has better data on players in the minors, including some splits.
  2. Abomination
    Use Fangraphs.

    A best case scenario would be closer to Darwin Barney defense (he's probably not quite AT that level), which is way more than +5 UZR.
  4. Abomination
    I think there's a number of people who feel his bat can be respectable. He's certainly not going to be a stud offensively, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him put up 80-85 wRC+ or higher. He may not do it, but I think he has the ability to.

    Between A-Rod and a million Japanese reporters, the Yankee spring training complex is going to be a zoo...

    Not quite what the thread was about, though interesting to see the viewpoint regardless. But how on earth is Burnett realistically acquirable?

    I don't really even regret us not paying for Darvish (at least once you spread the posting fee out over the contract length). Everything had to break right for that to be worth it, and Texas is very lucky that it did. This Tanaka deal is WAY worse than the chance on Darvish was.

    There's no way Dickey fits the description. He still had 1 year left on his contract (which he played out last year), and we gave him an extension on top of that. Your argument was that we were paying to pick up players a year after we could have signed them on the FA market. Big difference.

    No. If more than something like 1M changes hands, the commissioner's office has to approve it. The rule is in place specifically to prevent this sort of thing from happening, so there is zero chance they would let it occur.

    Syndergaard and d'Arnaud weren't traded for someone who meets the criteria of your criticism, and Yunel wasn't a long term asset. I think Hendo, Marisnick, and Nicolino will be above replacement level, but I don't think any will be special.

    Ask Parks to give us a picture lol

    The Rays also got Tissenbaum thrown in. They killed it with this trade. Absolute robbery imo.
  13. Abomination
    Btw, love that bolded "e" in Jimenez JFaS. Wonder if anyone else noticed it
  14. Abomination
    I really like Jimenez, and think he's got a chance to really bust out. Best upside out of all the remaining names imo, and even if he doesn't he'll at least eat innings. I'd probably equate Garza and Burnett. Not sure what is up with Yoon, but the fact there's been so little mentioned makes me think he could come fairly cheap (which would make him a non-disaster if he had to switch to the pen). Niemann could be the bargain name of the off-season imo. Santana scares me in RC, but he is a legit arm. Capuano and Arroyo are both probably a small upgrade over the kids for next year. I'm not sure about Hanson, but his velocity is fine which makes me think he'd be a prime candidate for Walker to work with on a 2-seamer and sinker.

    I'm going to be scared if you change your avatar to a Yankee logo...

    The results in hindsight don't change the validity of the opinion prior to them. No reason to backtrack. The Rangers took a huge risk and it paid off for them, but it was a lot of money to gamble and could easily have blown up in their faces. This gamble by the Yankees (on a pitcher most people feel is inferior to Darvish), is even bigger. If he puts up the higher end of the (reasonable) numbers people should expect, then he's probably being paid fairly. If he doesn't, that contract could almost be worse for them than the A-Rod one is now.
  17. Abomination
    I'm not sure if a few of these guys have signed or not yet, but I think my order would be Jimenez Garza Burnett Niemann Santana Yoon Capuano Arroyo Hanson
  18. Abomination
    I love that not a single person voted yes! I also hate that the Yankees got him, because now that they're screwed in getting under the cap they'll likely sign one or two more pitchers too.
  19. Abomination
    Looks like the Rays (predictably) were very interested. 5 player deal, Alex Torres as part going the other way.
  20. Abomination
    I had finally forgotten about that idiotic stat you bastard.

    The Spanky kiss of death. I think he deserves a FatCow style title if they blow it...
  22. Abomination
    I didn't see that conclusion mentioned. Plus, Romero's innings increase was in line with what teams tend to do now. His innings were built up in the minors due to some struggles.
  23. Abomination
    I think I'd go with Bogaerts and Walker as well. Too many questions (for fantasy) in Rendon, and Taijuan probably won't perform significantly worse than Corbin next year and has a great chance of being better later. Paxton I think has to be behind both of them.
  24. Abomination
    Fine. He's just using someone else's common sense!
  25. Abomination
    Of course as I say that MLBTR indicates that he may insist that the physical from last month be used and take until Friday...
