Blue Jays prospects: Sleeper, bust and new legit guy
Laika replied to Angrioter's topic in Blue Jays Minor League Talk
Bust: Pompey, Tellez. Sleeper: Jimenez, Cole, Rasmussen. Deep Sleeper: Huffman, Robson (if he can get enough starts), Tim Locastro, Jesus Tinoco. Breakout: Labourt, SRF, Urena. Bounce Back: Jimenez, Tirado (somewhat). -
He lost over 2mph on the top end. I think its a pretty big deal when the guy's MO as a two pitch reliever is basically 1. Pump heat, 2. Hit them with the split. You can see a lot of it in the plate discipline numbers. It all reads like hitters stopped swinging at fastballs out of the zone, starting murdering fastball strikes, so he threw more splitters but that's not a zone pitch so that explains some of the BB increase. It's kind of a mess with Steve. I'd be very surprised if he was back to his old self, or anything approaching it.

So we ignore the precipitous drop in velocity at his age?

It was his shoulder

Based on what, exactly? Hopes? Dreams? Wishes? Your own farts? Wilton Lopez is more likely to be a reliable major league arm.
-
f***! He's a personal favourite. Maybe sort of explains some of the Braves' weird veteran signings.
-
I'm thinking Wil Myers to SDP big.
-
Cap hit on a long-term commitment will always matter in a league with a cap! This isn't like baseball where straight $/WAR analysis is essentially useless for a team like the Dodgers.
-
Hard for me to understand that trade for Winnipeg. Bogosian and Kane look like the two best assets in the entire deal....
-
That really defends on where you draw the line for "top".

Binary slip beep boop

Suppose? That trade was dirt! Although maybe it looks worse now than it did at the time.
-
Well he barely met those counting stats in almost 700 PA so those aren't very sensible 0/U choices.
-
How's that league trade history coming?
-
Try tho

agree to disagree

Found a bug. This website explains it well: http://statsattack.projections.edu.ca/723ghj22798

Basebal Pprospectus: Top-101 prospects 2015

You could almost say that he's..... 2 years away from being 2 years away -
Basebal Pprospectus: Top-101 prospects 2015
Laika replied to Angrioter's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Vlad Jr. would still be a solid two years from any legitimate top 10 consideration, in all likelihood. -
Vlad Jr. is 15, his swing mechanics are understandably poor. The clip looks like just BP, homer swings. That double leg tap load thing is way too funky to be viable as a pro. Seems to really whip the bat through the zone will though. Heredia looks like Bautista in BP but Rajai Davis in game action. Get 'em all and hope some work out!

sent you a trade offer that you can't refuse
-
Are you kidding? Look how realistic that goose is

@MLBTheShow just tweeted this: It's this year's Canadian cover.

what was the deal?

lipo? sex change? race change? haircut?
