Risky move for catsass, trading reliable saves for Rondon.
-
Go! -
Thx.
-
Has the team made the playoffs under him? Check. Mate.
-
In before the edit.
-
He should have been in the system when it opened and taken in the waiver draft. 25-year old who signed a $27 M contract isn't exactly a low-profile signing. Chalk it up to yahoo's failure and let njh keep him.
-
Well that's awkward. I had no idea he was on your team. Oops.
-
I wouldn't even roster him in LOD lol.
-
He's not even good offensively. He's a below average hitter over like 1300 PA in the last three years. There's no place for Ryan Howard on a MLB roster.
-
It's a grey area because he's never played a pro game outside the AFL, but signed a MLB deal and will start in the majors. He should have been picked in the waiver draft, but yahoo.
-
Feel the despair run through you.
-
Ang has been on fire lately
-
I kind of think d'Arnaud is going to be very good.
-
Yeah. TBH I don't really give a s*** about Drabek. I'm just whining because it's dumn that Catsro and Osuna are making the team.
-
Why not just have all three?
-
I have my doubts that Osuna or Catsro is a better reliever than Drabek this year.
-
Watching Pirri shoot is fun. Man has laser with a quick release. Reminds me of Semin.
-
At how many first pitches would you start using F-strike% to make a decision on a player? 200? Let's say your guy is sitting at a 65% F-strike% after 200 hitters, which would be elite. League average is 60%. So you're talking about 10 strikes separating elite from average, possibly confounded by umpire, QoC, framing bias etc... So it's pretty dubious. And at that point you're at 50-60 IP, so the skills you're trying to tease out have already manifested themselves in a meaningful walk rate, with a K-rate approaching meaningful. I just don't see the utility.
-
This, and BB rate stabilizes at like 50 IP anyway.
-
To me it's akin to saying f-out% is strongly associated with the amount of runs given up in an inning. Of course it is. But a pitcher with a high f-out percentage is going go have a set of skills that given him an equally high second and third out percentage. Similarly, a pitcher that gets a lot of first pitch strikes has a skill set that likely allows him to get a lot of 2nd, 3rd, and 4th pitch strikes. The skill set is of interest. Mostly, I'm annoyed because North said John lackey was fantastic as a Cardinal because he had a high F-strike %.
-
Thank you. Maybe North will stop with this ********.
-
What the hell are they doing? Gausman might be their best pitcher and at 24 it's time to let him go 200 innings. Who else is there after Tillman, Chen, and Norris? Miguel Gonzalez and Ubaldo?
