    Maybe we could trade for Cole Hamels. He is unhappy with the Rangers 6 man rotation. They want to go with more pitchers Andes innings. Maybe Gonsalves and Romero would get it done?
  2. AZTwin
    Whats his commitment to the military like this year? Is this the last year he has the commitment? Will he have a 60 day leave like last year where he will be able to pitch? Great stats last year. Hope he can get to AA this year.
  3. AZTwin
    Yep... 1, 8, 9, 15, 20, 22, 25, 28, 29, and 30

    Do the minor leaguers play games as well? Any way to check out stats
  6. AZTwin
    Wow didn’t realize it was 90 minutes! Maybe some just quick hitters or interesting points
  7. AZTwin
    Do you have a transcript version? Don’t listen much but would be interested if they had any interesting quotes
  8. AZTwin
    I agree that if we like Kinley we have a lot of options of trading a borderline guy to the Miami to keep him. No reason for him to start in majors
  9. AZTwin
    Wow we lost a lot of guys. For me Randy Rosario hurts the most
  10. AZTwin
    Seeing Jay at 19 and Severino at 18? Without going further, I know this is one hell of a system. If we are in contention at the deadline, we will have pieces teams are interested in.
  11. AZTwin
    Bob... I saw him in Cedar Rapids and for some reason when I saw him, he reminded me of George Springer. Not sure why exactly, but just made me think of him. Thoughts?
  12. AZTwin
    Same here... I didn't read about him at all until a few hours before the draft and was loving it. Wasn't feeling McKay at all. Wright scared me. I wanted Greene but I wasn't sure. I think Gore would be a great pick but he seemed to be the 4th best value at pitcher for that pick and it'd be hard to reach that much. Then I read about Lewis. Athletic as hell. Even better intangibles. The kicker? Coming at a discount to get another guy... After Rooker and Leach, I was skeptical again (they didn't seem like the high dollar guy, and I wanted the Minnesota Pitcher) but then we got Enlow. Loved that.
  13. AZTwin
    Any consenus out there? Strong class/weak/average/too early to tell? Any positions stronger than others. I prefer prep pitching early, especially considering our low A ball lineup is stacked, but it’s all about value.
  14. AZTwin
    wow .330 BABIP. Puts the last month in perspective. He was great but had some bad luck. Let's get him going strong. Hope he can debut this year.
  15. AZTwin
    In football terms, it’s like trading for a starter for a future 4th round pick
  16. AZTwin
    Bingo. Even if it turned some of those homers into doubles. Its a net positive.
  17. AZTwin
    Exactly. But they impact performance. Lets add them to the equation. Let’s pretend 500 balls in play at .300. That’s 150 hits. Now 500 balls in play at .200. That’s 100 hits. Now let’s add 30 homeruns to the .200 rate and 18 homeruns to the .300 rate 168/518 = .324 130/530 = .245 Closes the gap in rate quite dramatically. Now plug in the actual numbers? .270 vs. .230 starting point? Actual average balls in play each year... can’t find the raw stats that go into it, but I’m guessing there’s no difference once you account for homeruns.
  18. AZTwin
    40 extra innInns. Year before was 18 in more innings as well. That makes up for the BABIP argument
  19. AZTwin
    I’ll take odorrizzi having higher BABIP rate if it means giving up less homers
  20. AZTwin
    Won’t like me quote you mike but came here to post the same article. His BABIP was so low last year because those 17 extra hits were homers last year and didn’t count towards BABIP.
  21. AZTwin
    Wish we could just go back to wins and losses
  22. AZTwin
    With the recent move... Id love an archer/Dickerson for Kepler trade. They could chose any 3-4 prospects not named Lewis, Enlow, or graterol
  23. AZTwin
    I feel it's a steal!
  24. AZTwin
    Look at his September... Great month. Back issues early in the year. Got him super cheap. Only 4th best SS prospect. Great value.
  25. AZTwin
    This also opens up room to give Lewis to start in FSL with Javier in Cedar Rapids.
