  1. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/juan-soto-and-baseballs-most-consistent-players/ Fangraphs really needs to find a way to pay actual money for writers/analysts, because things have become hilariously bad.
  2. For every bad starter who becomes a high end reliever a lot of bad starters just flame out of the majors. I don't think it's obvious that Sanchez goes from true talent 5 ERA starter to high-end reliever (true talent 3.2ish ERA?). There are a lot of warts there, and several of them would have to be ironed out for him to be a high end reliever. That said, I agree with the premise of this post of yours: I've posted in the past about wanting to see what he looks like in 1-inning appearances, and have been wanting the team to try him in that role for a long time. I just don't think it's likely that the result is a high end reliever, and I certainly don't think that's his floor.
  3. There are 178 pitchers with at least 200 IP over the last 3 seasons. Here's the full list of pitchers with a worse K-BB%: Tyler Chatwood Miguel Castro Ty Blach Andrew Cashner Dylan Covey It's hard to articulate just how bad a pitcher Aaron Sanchez has been for the last three years. He has no command. He doesn't generate any swinging strikes. He doesn't induce soft contact. He can't stay healthy. He might not run an xFIP over 5 in relief, but becoming a high-end reliever would require sweeping changes across the board - he'd have to suddenly be able to find the strike zone consistently and at the same time hitters would have to start swinging and missing at his stuff. His floor is very much that he's never a contributing MLB pitcher, even in relief.
  4. Is featherD the last team to never miss the playoffs?
  5. We’ve seen his floor for three years now: one of the very worst pitchers in baseball. There’s a chance he becomes a good reliever, but that’s not likely.
  6. I wish you could bump their articles by replying to them.
  7. Aaron Sanchez pulled mid-meltdown in the 3rd inning against the worst offense in baseball.
  8. I spent several years at 215 and then cut back to 185 a few years ago. I'm far from a professional athlete and my entire body feels immeasurably better not carrying around 30 pounds of needless weight. I'm guessing that if anything there's a tendency to understate the negative health outcomes associated with being a fat athlete.
  9. That's such an insane amount of value to give up just because you can't keep yourself in shape.
  10. Man, Vladdy is up to -4.4 runs of UBR and -8.8 UZR. 1.3 fWAR of negative value from baserunning and fielding at 20 years old. His weight is a major, major problem that looks like it's going to cost him significant value over the course of his career if its not addressed. He actually has a very good and accurate arm, but his range might be the worst in baseball for a regular 3b.
  11. My 4th and 5th best starters in that group
  12. Of all the fake posturing that has been done in this thread, this posturing is the fakest.
  13. Probability of Dinger selling Urshela in BORED this offseason: 100%.
  14. Well, you get Hurl this week so that will help. You'll probably have to beat me convincingly next week to get in though.
  15. It's all fun and games until Bellinger drops a 5-HR week on you. And since the offseason. Hurl was one of two owners to name his division in the division draft.
  16. 3 idiots division could be decided this week Dinger
  17. Monte Cristo teams sitting 2,3,4 in the league right now.
  18. The assclown holding up the personalized Leafs jersey needs to be escorted out and banned.
  19. This feels a lot like Phil Hughes’ big breakout season, but I hope he finds a way to keep it up.
  20. It's something we've always avoided in the past, so consider Boxy's appointment a trial run.
  21. Sanchez's Toronto 2019 xFIP: 5.10 Sanchez's Houston 2019 xFIP: 5.05 Fangraphs probably shouldn't have published the "Sanchez is fixed!" article 6 innings into his tenure with Houston.
  22. Nobody here gives a f*** about the Queen.
