Yeah but if you take your reflection and flip it around it does look like a certain bird mascot

Jeremiah Jackson in Baltimore is a good example of why you pick up someone like Lenyn Sosa up, even if he is flawed Jackson has 1.2 fWAR in 62 career games. That's as much as Jackson Holliday in his 209 games, and perhaps enough production to take Coby Mayo's at bats when Holliday comes back. It is easy to focus on arm, speed, defense, and bad K-BB skills but important to still recognize that not all tools are created equal. A cromulent combination of hit + power can carry an entire player profile, even without extreme power or perternatural hitting ability. Like, 50 hit 55 power can be good enough sometimes.

wow Addison Barger is s***** a hacker with two bum ankles wow George Springer is 42 wow Lauer Corbin Scherzer Berrios should just retire because of mono flu sucky oldness wow Nathan Lukes is not even AAA quality but he might be a good 14U coach in a few years wow Kaz Okamoto seems like a total bust, fringe D and swiss cheese swing wow wow Wow WOW

Example... I asked it to make me a summary visual but it made this html thing instead. Pretty cool. Just need to whip it a few more times and it should be perfect These are my fantasy baseball prospects. Hitters: Roldy Brito, Billy Carlson, Roc Riggio, Aroon Escobar, Cooper Ingle, Seaver King, Alex Freeland, Aiva Arquette, Thayron Liranzo, Rainiel Rodriguez, Juan Brito (Cleveland), Cole Young, Johnny Level, Hayden Alvarez. Pitchers: Didier Fuentes, Nestor German, Johnny King, Owen Murphy, Christian Oppor, Blade Tidwell, Kendry Rojas, Thomas Harrington, Owen Wild, AJ Russell, Jaden Hamm, Jurrangelo Cjintje, Brandon Young, Luke Sinnard, David Shields, Connor Prielipp, Dasan Hill, Tyler Bremner, Luis De Leon (Baltimore). Can you pull me a summary (spreadsheet stole or similar visual) that shows their stats so far in 2026? Here are the stats I want to see. For hitters: age, level (MLB, AAA, AA, etc.) games played, plate appearances, HR, SB, K%, BB%, wRC+, wOBA, AVG, OBP, SLG, OPS, ISO, barrel rate, maxEV, BABIP, GB%, FB%, LD%. For Pitchers: age, level, games played, games started, innings pitched, K%, BB%, K, BB, ERA, FIP, xFIP, HR/FB%, BABIP. If a player has stats at multiple levels, show both levels separately as well as their combined 2026 stats. If any player has a recent injury note on rotowire let me know. You can find all of these stats on Fangraphs and Baseball Reference and Baseball Savant and other popular sites. Some players may have no 2026 data yet. If you can't find the stat for a certain player or if you aren't 100% sure it's the right stat just leave it blank. I may ask you to update this list every few weeks.

Get Claude to make you a dashboard or pull a custom report when asked.

Crochet blowing his whole season tonight Yuck

2024 + 2025 combined, Lenyn Sosa had an xwOBA of .324 Ranks 123rd out of 272 hitters with at least 600 PA in that timeframe That's a viable bat. Only 26. They are looking for someone who can actually barrel it up. When Springer got hurt they had to sub MYLES STRAW at DH, that says enough right there. The bench only has a f***ing pinch hitter worth a potato on it when Davis Schneider doesn't start the game.

What So you were writing him off and people hated it but now you are saying don't write him off? I mean nobody is writing him off after 60 PA. Just like nobody is saying that all of these guys are cooked: Aranda, Bichette, Jarren Duran, Alonso, Springer, Bregman, Ketel Marte, Buxton, Roman Anthony, Geraldo Perdomo, Busch, Devers, Suarez, Sal Perez, Carson Benge, Grisham, Pasquantino, Josh Naylor (just a small sample of the guys at replacement level or worse so far) wow Josh Naylor has a negative wRC+ after 15 games. WBC Naylor is trucking along like a zombie into the MLB regular season.

Well that is sad Okamoto looked so good... for a series

The rotation is a f***ing dumpster fire right now in slots 3-5 I can't believe I am saying this but Jose Berrios might be a savior

Lenyn Sosa... I don't get it. He is a hacker (chases), without the elite contact ability, so you get a putrid K-BB% albeit without a completely catastrophic K% since he puts enough in play. He has decent pop and barrel control. Might have been making gains in the Pull-Air category in 2025. Bleeds runs everywhere on defense though and is all blue for OAA, baserunning, arm. It's like if Ezequiel Tovar was a minus defender. Doesn't he just compete with Schneider for at bats? Pros: is on the young side of the aging curve, he has never been tried in the OF so what if he is a decent LF, he can hit the ball hard (72nd percentile maxEV) and barrel and has shown Pull-Air growth. Has experience around the infield, if you need an infield statue anywhere. Cons: One of the worst K-BB you will find in the sport. 1st percentile BB rate. 20th or 30th percentile speed, arm, defense. One note - his 2025 chase rate in the 3rd percentile is much worse than his swing rate (more 30th percentile) would hint at. We are talking top 10 o swing % vs like top 70 Swing% (out of 277). It's either evidence that he has terrible zone sense, or an area of potential growth?

Sorta shocked to see Valenzuela get all these starts over Hein Even day games after night games Front office obviously thinks BV is vastly superior

Lukes again lol

I guess Lauer is the first to get bumped from this rotation Patrick Corbin 150 IP

He is sitting like 92 Those fastballs to Varsho were actually under 94. Like 93.6

The whole season is tainted

Is Joe Ryan good hittin' now? This is minus minus velo

Late

LUKES

Pulled one of these a year ago Just looked and it is up from $80 to like $500 USD raw in the last year https://www.sportscardspro.com/game/baseball-cards-2025-topps-home-field-advantage/shohei-ohtani-ha-5

Griffin Conine is f***ing cursed Was just heating up in 2025 and then needed shoulder surgery Was on fire in 2026 and just tore his hamstring, needs surgery Losing his prime MLB seasons to major injuries. Will be 29 next year. Sadness.

The Nathan Lukes era is OVER

Gimme Schneider

Ponce is older and heavy. I would guess his recovery will slide longer. He's the opposite of a young Marcus Stroman, for reference.
