    GIDP like RBI is a stat of opportunity. A negative one,, but still opportunity. 45 RBI other than himself is a stat of opportunity . Now if he batted lead off the numbers would look different as the 7/8/9 hitters are less likely to be on base as the usual ones have a sub .300 OBP.

    Whoever said Royce Lewis was going to be normal?

    Gordon hasn’t even been sent on a rehab assignment so at this point it is much ado about nothing. True there still is enough time to get in a rehab assignment. There is not enough time to get him a rehab assignment and enough time to get him adjusted to mlb. He is not that good of a player. Not a bad player, either. A rehab assignment is inn order as a disaster plan. Depending on what you think you might need. One more CF going down is about the only scenario. Larnach can cover the other OF positions.

    If the bast is any indication of what the Mets would trade for you need to look at the trades they made. Robertson, Verlander and Scherzer went for 21 and under high ceiling prospects. I don’t think this FO would make that kind of deal for 1 year of Alonso and a later comp pick. Larnach and lottery tickets perhaps. September, pennant races, playoffs, I suppose it is never too early to shift to fantasy GM time

    WPA/Li would order it Jullian solano Polanco Jeffers Wallner Castro Kirillloff Taylor Lewis Buxton Most valuable depends on what you want to count

    Julien is no longer a prospect. The fans have turned on him
  8. old nurse
    Probably what is holding him back is the 33% k rate

    Atlanta has done some amazing things. Acura, Ozuna, Olson, and Morton all on very team friendly contracts and the team appears to be healthy every season

    They did get rid of revokable waivers.

    Baseball has always changed the rules.

    So if you cam’s waive players then the DFA players couldn’t be claimed during Agust, either. Some player would be denied a chance to be on a roster.

    Had the Twins snagged the 2 relievers and Refroe there wouldn’t have been complaints of unfairness nor that the system needs changing. If Cleveland nor Cincinnati make the playoffs the system would be considered working fine by mlb. Tanking for a draft pick at this point in the season. Players playing for a job next year. Every other team that was lower than the standings is in the same boat. Here is to hoping that the Reds Giants, Diamondbacks and Marlins win the draft lottery

    That should be apparent but nobody is going there. A deeper playoff run could have happened with a strengthened bullpen. You can’t let your competitor get better Blocking other teams from getting better happened in the days of revokable waivers. This time it cost Cleveland some money

    28 games left I16 against teams with losing records right now not including 3 against Cleveland. f the Twins go 14-14 Cleveland would have to go 19-9 to tie the Twins in the standing. 20-8 to pass. There would have to be a collapse by the Twins, Cleveland’ gets a lot of hot batting, or a plane fell out of the sky for them to catch the Twins.

    Well, at this point it would be if the Reds or Marlins wanted a player as it would seem unlikely a non playoff contending team would put in a claim. Passing up a chance for a shutdown pullpen should b a no brained. Renfroe and Grichuck have had great careers but not great years. They would be better than Luplow

    When you look to see who have been MVPs in the playoffs you see about half of them are players playing above their normal levels. Cute can be necessary for a w

    I think you probably have to be a caretaker to get the worthy articles. Just a guess at what is there since I am not one.
  19. old nurse
    Pretty much mailed it. For priority, watch to see if the Twins tank Wed.

    If you have enough great players then team chemistry isn’t important. It does seem important as the time passes from the date freer agency was started it seems like the less there are the brawling teams. One of the things free agency allowed was to get away from people you couldn’t stand

    Pablo and Sonny then pray for rain

    Using Baseball Reference statistics, being 0.3 years older than the average age of the players you are playing against is a problem? 2 years of low level JC baseball, one year of which he pitched only 9 innings. One mediocre year at D1 level. With that development level of his pitching, it was a reach to start him at Elizabethton and not the complex league. They probably should have called him up when they sent Moran down but the FO seems to like Ortega and Moran. When Ortega’s injury became enough, they got a 40 man spot for him
  23. old nurse
    Maeda had 12 great starts in a 1/3 season. That was his outlier year. The Dodgers had him as a swing starter/reliever. He is what he is. A back of rotation starter that can occasionally pitch a great game.
  24. old nurse
    Unless Carmago can hit at the major league level at a level to overcome his catching this is yet another losing trade by the Twins
  25. old nurse
    How many bloggers they have will be the number of articles.
