    Small broken bone sound uhh...not great. Hopefully we can keep Ernie out for a few games and PH with Schneider as necessary. Unclear how long this kind of thing takes to heal.

    The thing about a nasty bullpen with iffy command is, as sliderguy points out, that they're gonna have stretches where they're unhittable and stretches where they're walking the park. You can't tell me you'd rather have a bullpen of command artists that in theory induces lots of weak contact, because the ceiling isn't as high on those kinds. We saw those types of mediocre stuff bullpens in the past and everyone called for the FO to go for swing and miss. Come the playoffs, if the bullpen core gets out of this funk, you have a bunch of relievers who can strike any hitter out regardless of the handedness. That kind of group can get you very far in the playoffs, just takes a little bit of luck going your way the same as any other championship winning squad. Everything has to be clicking at the same time, and when it clicks for guys with good stuff for a week or two they're very tough to hit.

    This is such a silly post but I'll entertain it. Usually the starters moving to the bullpen for the postseason are guys who have really good stuff. I don't know if Berrios or Eric Lauer with their kitchen sink arsenals, vetrin presents and traditional windups are what anyone has in mind as a fireman break glass in case of emergency reliever.

    Gage Stanifer with 3 consecutive 6 IP starts in Vancouver. What an incredible development story for the org and the farm.
  5. Orgfiller
    Amazing to see another strong start from Stanifer.
  6. Orgfiller
    I think unless Berrios regains his velocity a bit later in the year then it's a Bassitt + Lauer piggyback for SP4, totally agreed.

    Unsurprising to see the struggling Barger get a day off to reset mentally, but seeing Ernie at 3B with how brutal he's been at the plate lately sucks even more lol. Since his little 3-game HR surge, he's gone 3-40 with 1BB, including going 0-17 in his last 4 games.
  8. Orgfiller
    For all intents and purposes Lauer is basically still a starter. I very much doubt you'll see him come into the game out of the bullpen unless it's with the purpose of eating 3+ innings. So really you only have two lefties in Fluharty and Little to come into the game in leverage spots.

    For sure, but I just don't know if he's talented enough to really fix this? He's always had pedestrian to poor K/BB rates, and the GB/FB rates have been continually getting worse as he's moved up through the minors. He's not even a talked about as a lower tier prospect even though he has 70-80 grade raw power. Of course, I could eat my words if we let go of him and some other org unlocks that power consistently, it's just hard to envision.
  10. Orgfiller
    Rainer Nunez...now there's a worm killer! 58% GB rate lol, gross. If he could get his FB% rate from 20 to 40% he'd probably be a very legit prospect. Alas, I don't think he has the hit tool to make that sort of adjustment.
  11. Orgfiller
    Interesting, I looked into it and it's not like he's a worm killer or anything, always hovering around 44% GB rate which is nothing egregious. Does he just hit a bunch of like 5-10 degree line drives all over the field? Certainly doesn't seem like a broken profile or anything of that nature, someone just needs to work with him to up the pull rate and/or FB rate a little bit more. The raw power seems to be there even if he wants to drive balls the opposite way. And of course, there might not even be anything to "fix" so to speak, the xwOBA indicates he's probably just getting unlucky and is doing everything right. Keep doing you Piña!

    I love your addition to the board. Pinango at 108.2 EV90 👀 - 98th percentile!
  13. Orgfiller
    Not sure how to view EV90 rankings, but I have a feeling that Schreck's is similar to Roden's. Using just MaxEV, Roden reached 112 and 109.5 in AAA in 24/25, whereas Schreck's max comes in at 108.0. So raw power wise it's the same with potentially the latter being half a grade lower, but as you mentioned he gets to his power more often so his game power might play higher. K/BB they're a wash with RJ being more TTO focused and Roden having more of a contact approach overall. Roden moved a bit faster up the minors, whereas Schreck is just now showing that success at AAA over a smaller sample. So if Roden ultimately was a back end top 100 50 FV guy, Schreck is likely in that 45-45+ tier of just outside the top 100 guys. All that to say, he's definitely been a promising success story, looking like at least a decent platoon corner OF with decent defense and the ability to fill in at CF if necessary once every couple of weeks. Hopefully he's able to keep lifting the ball as he continues and ultimately makes the jump to the MLB.

    His fastball has really bad shape metrics I'm pretty sure. It's basically a show me pitch so people don't exclusively sit on the nasty breaking ball. He also has terrible command of it. 75 Stuff+ on the fastball with 87 Location+ lol, comically bad. Despite that he rates well overall thanks to the slider and curveball being well above average pitches.
  15. Orgfiller
    Red Sox lose in the 11th.
  16. Orgfiller
    I like how Varland finished the inning following the first two reaching. Some good knuckle curves spotted low and kept the fastball down.
  17. Orgfiller
    Holy f*** Straw, lol
  18. Orgfiller
    Safe to say this is the best week in Myles Straw’s MLB career.
  19. Orgfiller
    Gorgeous DP, Clement and Giménez both with quick transfers.
  20. Orgfiller
    Barber probably needs to clean up that vulnerability on low and inside breaking balls moving forward. That one was well located, but it’s definitely a pitch he chases and whiffs on often.
  21. Orgfiller
    Myles Straw is on fire lol
  22. Orgfiller
    Just because the often replacement 2B has been another elite defender in Ernie Clement doesn’t make Giménez’s defense any less elite.
  23. Orgfiller
    Smart play from Ernie to secure the sure out. Let Max take care of the next hitter.
  24. Orgfiller
    Common Jonn nonsense reactionary post. “Unremarkable” lol 8 OAA in less than half a season.
  25. Orgfiller
    Gimenez’s exceptional range coming back to bite him there. Doesn’t help that Bo is moving like a truck out there these days.
