  1. sure, just not round 1......you are looking at such a tiny chance of it working, can you really not take a player 10x more likely to work out in round 1? I think the math there is easy.
  2. Look at the stats. There's a reason teams avoid them. There are numerous articles about this on the Internet. It's not me saying this, it's professionals like Keith Law and the fangraphs people.
  3. Lowest hit rate in the draft. Nope. Not in the first two rounds for me.
  4. As a hitter? Yes. But he's not a fielder at all apparently. That makes it even harder. Never take a bat only guy in round one....
  5. I had hoped E Rodriguez would do that this year, but he's hurt again (and let's face it, Wallner and Larnach aren't holding anyone back, except they don't demote average players for great ones).
  6. I'd love that, but no way. No way (and yes, I saw the tiny bit). I just can't see it. He's healthy and elite where he is. I'm assuming comfortable..... I mean, I want him in CF and Buxton traded (yes, he can be traded with teh right incentive), but I think we can cross that off our list of possibilities.
  7. No one is saying move him off SS full time....but you want him to play 2B for the first time ever (slight exaggeration) in the majors?
  8. Just want to say how much I love these articles. So informative.
  9. Runs scored is so much about other hitters (esp for Arraez).....I'm not sure how to feel about this...
  10. I can't imagine caring what other people think about how a player rates. It's so much more fun to just watch / listen to / enjoy the games.
  11. So many here rip players for being soft, then we rip them for not taking time off when hurt.......
  12. Surprised to read this today. Given the game thread, I thought they lost 100000000 to negative 1000000000. Super happy to be this wrong about Santana right now. super happy.
  13. There's no evidence a player being great in AAA gets to come up w/o an injury or AWFUL play by a MLB player. People keep typing that players can earn their way up, but can we see an example of that? Where a guy dominated AAA and replaced an average MLB player? I'm happy to be wrong here, but I'm unable to come up with an example.
  14. I despise the challenge system.... Sigh.
  15. I don't get Lee not playing second at all. If he's playing SS in Minnesota any time soon, that's bad.
  16. Rather than accuse fans of over reacting to 16 games, how about assume they also looked at previous years, and used that as the basis of their opinion? If anyone thinks he's going to keep this up, I hope you aren't disappointed when he doesn't. I know asking posters to assume positive things about other humans is a stretch...
  17. Throw the ball over the shoulder! That's a strike today.
  18. Almost none of those look like strikes online....
