  1. Brandon Marsh to Newb for the next two picks. Newb to confirm.
  2. Well of course. Wendle had 14 PA in his age 27 season, so there's that too.
  3. I just msg'ed Adam to let him know its his turn
  4. I don't think we can discount the possibility Espinal is still improving at 27. Wendle going into his age 32 season, probably not, probably the other way if anything.
  5. So hopefully we will see just how good your sports gut is in 2022.
  6. I'm going to assume J-Rod will be up next season, and offer up Brandon Marsh here for two upcoming picks. Ceiling is high on that guy
  7. Picks/drafted players take a while to bear fruit. 1st round picks are very valuable in a dynasty league, the value of later picks depend on number of teams. Later picks have more value in a 30 teamer than a 12 teamer. A top 5 pick in this league is worth something like a Framber Valdez.
  8. To recap: Steamer has Espinal with a better bat than Wendle in 2022, plus his defense is better My gut tells me Wendle will be slightly better with the bat, but Espinal more than makes up for the difference with his defense Laika's gut says Wendle will be >> Espinal So let's see what happens.
  9. Dealing with his ED problem
  10. We need Gruber to weigh in here
  11. Kirby instead of Liberatore and seems fair
  12. I'm surprised he last this long.
  13. Victor Robles available, breakout pending.
  14. Would have cost us more. Jays probably tried.
  15. Agreed but Steamer is better than looking at individual parameters and using them to say player x is better than player y. While every assessment method has limitations, whether they be the publicly available ones or the proprietary team ones, the best comparison tool we have is Steamer and the like.
  16. Ya, ya, ya. And in terms of the real world, the difference is of limited impact, given the difference in K rate among other things. Projection systems do this multi-parameter review for us. Think big picture, my man.
  17. The comparison is between Wendle and Espinal, not the rest of MLB. Espinal EV 84.8, Wendle 87.9. A bit of a difference. Offset by the K rate difference?
  18. Time for a Can Santiago Espinal Stick? thread.
  19. Espinal's 12% K, 9% BB rates sets a pretty solid floor for him as a hitter.
  20. Yeah I share your view that Wendle is better than Espiral with the bat, but ever so slightly. Very similar players.
  21. Nah, cuz that is likely to happen. But the difference between the two is too small to warrant trading someone and DFA'ing someone on the 40 in order to make room for Wendle. And besides, even if Wendle beats Espinal in wRC+ by a few points, Espinal superior defense more than offsets that.
  22. Steamer >>>> Grant Look at BABIP. Normal BABIP Wendle doesn't eclipse 100.
  23. Steamer predicts Wendle wRC+ at 90, and Espinal at 91. And Espinal superior defensively.
