    Does Fangraphs WAR as listed account for catcher framing yet??
  2. G-Snarls
    Oh yes Some HR power otherwise he's crap
  3. G-Snarls
    Another guy saying Bautista is a great teammate
  4. G-Snarls
    Worth reading Thanks King
  5. G-Snarls
    I also try to keep in mind that "average" doesn't mean "bad" A team loaded with 2 WAR players who stay healthy and a couple of 4-5 WAR players is a playoff team with a good chance of doing well in the playoffs A team loaded with 0 WAR replacement level players and a couple of 4-5 WAR players does not

    How much did Suzuki get and will that be typical for a backup catcher on a 1 year deal?
  7. G-Snarls
    I'm. Still going to guess not all that close
  8. G-Snarls
    Theoretical question what if Buster Posey went on the juice how close to Piazza level could he get
  9. G-Snarls
    You're right Carter career splits: OPS .875 vs .803 wRC+ 118 vs 109
  10. G-Snarls
    What is Moss expected to get?
  11. G-Snarls
    LOL @ Padres paying 11.45M to Upton this season
  12. G-Snarls
    Most think they planned to spend 160M With Bautista re-signed, payroll currently sits just blow 151M http://www.spotrac.com/mlb/toronto-blue-jays/payroll/ There's enough money for Carter and a backup catcher
  13. G-Snarls
    Somehow, power hitting 1B have suddenly become undervalued by the market Makes all the sense in the world to grab another one right now
  14. G-Snarls
    It's efficient *IF* you can unload most of Smoak's contract If you have to pay 3/4 of it it's probably not
  15. G-Snarls
    Don't know Gibby sure doesn't like using him as an everyday player The FO should listen to him
  16. G-Snarls
    YES Sign Carter for under 6-8M and trade Smoak and 1-2M of salary relief for a backup catcher
  17. G-Snarls
    Great bat Great arm But s*** defensive play otherwise and poor steal/CS ratio Still a Hall Of Famer though
  18. G-Snarls
    Yeah good point Pretty sure all of those guys except Ruth could have mustered up more steals with a 2/3 success rate had they wanted to
  19. G-Snarls
    LOL exactly (Though to be fair many on here thought Sanchez was going to suck too)
  20. G-Snarls
    Yeah, Vlad should have been in this year - In his 16-year career, Guerrero hit .318/.379/.553 with 449 home runs and a 136 wRC+. His .553 career slugging percentage ranks 21st all-time among retired players, and it would rank 14th among Hall of Famers, ahead of contemporaries like Mike Piazza and Ken Griffey Jr., both of whom were inducted last year. Guerrero’s combination of a .318 career average and 449 home runs is matched by only five players in the game’s history, all of them immortal: Babe Ruth, Stan Musial, Lou Gehrig, Ted Williams and Jimmie Foxx. None of them comes close to Guerrero’s 181 career steals, an indication of the breadth of his game in his prime. Between 1998 and 2007, Guerrero never batted below .307 or had an OPS lower than .934. His lifetime OPS of .931 would rank 18th among current Hall of Famers, three points ahead of Hank Aaron.

    Obviously I meant this a bit tongue in cheek. He does have a record of underestimating several Jays proppects over the last few years. Hopefully he's wrong here too.
  22. G-Snarls
    Doesn't that just about guarantee Tellez has a great year?
  23. G-Snarls
    Keith Law chat today: Frank: You have been consistently down on Rowdy Tellez. By all reports, he has worked very hard (and effectively) on his defence. I remember you having issues more with the bat (not sure what) than the fielding, but is he a viable short term solution to an injury problem this year, or is that something you would not even try? Klaw: Nope, guy can’t play first at all, and he’s a mediocre hitter with brute strength power. Asked a lot of scouts about him this year; outside of the Jays themselves, I can’t find anyone who buys him as a regular.
  24. G-Snarls
    Keith Law chat today: Ryan: Thoughts on the Bautista deal? Klaw: I’ve said there’s no such thing as a bad one year deal. That’s pretty much how I feel here. The Jays get to roll the dice on having Bautista get healthy and produce more than he did last year; if he does 2015 again, it’s a steal. Ryan: Would you rather Bautista at 1 year, $18m, or Trumbo at 3 years, $37m? Klaw: Bautista, easily.
  25. G-Snarls
    Technically yes but come on... someone with a career WAR of -0.7 or + 0.5 or whatever who isn't even a full win better or worse than replacement... It's close enough to call them that. Hardly anyone is going to be EXACTLY 0 WAR after multiple MLB seasons
