    It is probably one of those scenarios where Chapman is a better 3B due to reps and specific characteristics but Espinal is the better general defender, and the better MIF. So... depends how you frame the question. I can't imagine Espinal being a better 3B defender than Chapman. Hard to see it. I dunno.

    he normally begins the year averaging 94 or 95 mph has basically not had a start averaging under 93 in the last three seasons. Maybe that one random dot last year. if his in-season trends repeat, then 93 in April will end up as 92 in the fall. Not great.

    hit the bar, Carlos

    that velocity is horrendous for him

    Does Berrios look good today or is the O's B lineup just going easy on him?

    US uniforms suck

    Brett Wallace had the best swing in the history of baseball

    Honestly, most of the teams had s***** uniforms. Japan's were f***ING AMAZING though. That shimmer, wow.

    I watched one or two of his outings pitches looked the same he got nuked in the WBC what changes are they saying he made?

    I'm just so annoyed that the organization appears to have done NOTHING to fix Berrios in the offseason. It seems like they just want to mark 2022 up to bad luck and hope the same approach has better results in 2023. Why isn't he here in spring with a new pitch after spending a month in the lab over the winter? Blargh.

    Nice. I love guys with overrated tools and horrible launch angles. Especially when they play for atrocious organizations!
  12. Laika
    Nice. Don't let some wench steal your coins

    Yeah, the game quality in the tournament ranged from unwatchable trash to epic showdown.

    I've heard no rumours around Chris Archer all offseason. I wonder what is going on with him. He looked pretty awful last year. They only asked him to pitch twice through the order most nights and he still was not effective.
  15. Laika
    do or die for Berrios today if he sucks, he could lose his rotation spot to one of the kids like Zack Thomas or Thompson Hatch
  16. Laika
    The first guy who pitched was like a better version of Kikuchi.
  17. Laika
    What is "big money"?
  18. Laika
    Love dudes with 13 homer 7 steal projections Soooo good

    The Japanese pitching was so good. The US arms could not compare. Freeland and Merrill Kelly vs Darvish, Ohtani, and others who would be very good MLB pitchers. Or will be.
  20. Laika
    Wait, Riley Greene? lol
  21. Laika
    speculating

    It seems like Atlanta is disgusted by his defense. They must not want a defensive liability at SS given the shape of their team. If he's not the starting SS, there is really no other position for him on the roster. RIP Grissom buyers in fantasy. I'm guessing he will start getting some CF/LF reps in the minors as that looks like their weakest position on the MLB team.

    Can't believe you all let me grab Coors Profar hours after he signed

    With three starters who can handle CF they really don't even need a CF on the bench. They could instead use someone with more bat, like Horwitz or Barger, or someone with more utility like Lopez. Espinal (3B/SS/2B) Biggio (2B/1B/LF/RF) Lopez (everywhere) Jansen Merrifield is the ostensible starting 2B but also the 4th OF. He can probably also play CF in a pinch. Lukes is almost 29 and projects worse than Lopez or Horwitz with the stick. I don't really see how he functions for the team. Unless they are looking for a 4th bench player to just sit on the bench and rot and only play if Bo Bichette decides to sprint into left centre field and clothesline both Varsho and Kiermaier before giving Springer the People's Elbow off of the new elevated fan area in RF.
  25. Laika
    I don't agree. I don't think Lopez is that type of player that you need to groom any further. He's basically a finished product so if he's the best fit he should be on the big team.
