  1. Yeah the dude is seriously fast. He could be so good if he got those strikeouts under control.
  2. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/sprint_speed_leaderboard Socrates Brito is 12th in the entire league in sprint speed. "his speed may average or even slightly above" Just admit you don't know what you're talking about in an effort to make Alford look good. Brito sucks but it's not like he doesn't have any tools, he's not Rowdy Tellez who has a bit of power and nothing else. Boxy isn't comparing anyone, he's using a hyperbole claim which mimics your own since you clearly don't know who you're talking about here.
  3. This is just straight up incorrect lol. Brito is quite fast and he's a pretty capable defender.
  4. Pearson and Groshans are obvious, I think he means among the "on the cusp according to industry" guys.
  5. His body of work is 760 innings in the outfield, plus the minor leagues where he was clearly liked enough there given that he played CF regularly, not 7 games for the Blue Jays where he looked stupid on one flyball and has been fine in his other 4 or 5 chances.
  6. What the f*** are you talking about? Mike Trout dropped a routine flyball last week, he must be some bum eh? Yeah the defensive metrics don't draw up a proper picture, but your week and a half of watching Derek Fisher get 5 opportunities in the outfield sure have.
  7. Derek Fisher, in his absurdly limited SSS at the major leagues, has played 760 innings in the outfield. He has 7 DRS and a UZR of 2.3. There is absolutely nothing f***ing wrong with Derek Fisher's defense. Maybe he got the yips because a ball hit him in the f***ing face, but just because he looks awkward catching a ball near his head doesn't mean he's doing anything wrong out there FFS. IT'S BEEN TWO WEEKS.
  8. You've seen Fisher for two weeks, Jesus f***ing Christ.
  9. That's fine, I don't anyone is expecting an ace. Mike Fiers has lived with that velocity in his career with a high spin fastball, and he's about a ~2 win/180 IP starter. I think we'd all be satisfied with that outcome out of an 8th round pick who signed for slot value. Murray's great results are also coming at an good age for prospect status, given that he's 2 years younger than the average in AA, so there's some hope that he can surpass that 2 WAR ceiling.
  10. It's 88-90 and tops out at 92 I'm pretty sure. Edit: you can see the velocity on the two videos above. On the first the velo reading goes from 90 to 91 and on the second it shifts from 87 to 91.
  11. I think there's always something to be said that the smart FOs acquired him in the first place. For instance someone like Oliver Drake was passed around the league last year, by several well run teams, and it looks like he's found a modicum of success with the Rays this season. It's very unlikely that we found "it" with Font but he's got some good stuff and is a reliever so you never know, he could have an excellent stretch for a season/season and a half and then turn back into pumpkin, which would be just peachy for us.
  12. Hader has still been excellent even when factoring in this year's homerun issues. He has a 103:15 K/B ratio in 55.2 innings of work. Established elite relievers are still plenty valuable, keep in mind after his clusterf*** of an offseason following one of his worst seasons in his career, Craig Kimbrel still signed a 3/43 deal with a $16M vesting option for the fourth year. Barring an extended injury or a sharp decline in his ability from now until next offseason, Ken Giles is well on his way to get a lot of money. Giles will likely go for no less than 3 years in the ballpark of $40-50M, and I could very well see him surpass that.
  13. I'm all in on Joey Murray at this point. The strikeouts are for real and that leg kick is wild.
  14. Attaboy Billy! Lol @ Teoscar hurrying back to fetch the seeds.
  15. Teoscar continues his surge. He made that high fastball above the zone look like it was a meatball.
  16. Calhoun's positioning is so awkward. For a short, kinda fat guy he plays super shallow and never seems comfortable going back on the ball.
  17. He also has quite a number of infield flies which are effectively just as good as strikeouts.
  18. Rougned Odor suxxxxxxxxxx
  19. Bo has made some very pretty plays the last couple of days.
  20. That looked awful damn, hope Deshields is okay because that looked nasty.
  21. That was about as poorly as you can take that hop and throw. It looked like Andrus was able to keep his foot on just long enough.
  22. I'm on 4K and the pixelation is visible. It's very apparent if you look around the strikezone and at the players' jerseys.
  23. Another couple of nasty curves there, good stuff Pannone.
