    what's Tyler Colvin slugging right now? (please not, i still don't like him, even a little bit)
  2. sneakypower
    jesus, you're obnoxiously transparent have we seen anybody yet (aside from a recreational part-time self-avowed scout) who's suggested he can regularly be average at 3B? hell, Sveum just recently bashed his present defensive abilities as for the baserunning, he's widely agreed to be a slow-footed runner and his speed scores are always lacking, and his tendency to post low BABIPs despite a fairly GB-heavy batted ball profile supports this as well it's just that he has so many bad qualities to chip away at a lot of the value he gave you from his XBH's, to where he's just not that intriguing but if he's boosting his stock, i love the idea that we might be able to get some value for him in a trade now; i'm just not suffering the same Vittered Wife Syndrome some of you guys are, where i still get false hope over him
  3. sneakypower
    He's a fringe-average defender on the good side of the defensive spectrum. you're simply not being intellectually honest if you believe that to be true
  4. sneakypower
    only if you completely ignore fielding and baserunning altogether
  5. sneakypower
    (for reference) Soriano: 6.5%
  6. sneakypower
    Jason Vargas has surrendered 17 HR in 11 road starts i'm probably going to laugh at whoever gives up valuable assets for him
  7. sneakypower
    no Matt Szczur???
  8. sneakypower
    That's crazy, he was a slight overdraft but not that much. Sucks for him, I have no idea what the Marlins are doing. they have to be able to afford the $27M it costs to have Heath Bell put up a 1.82 WHIP
  9. sneakypower
    i'd imagine a hitting-streak getting to 45-50 games would be a big, big deal
  10. sneakypower
    we're going to get 50 walks from our whole infield combined
  11. sneakypower
    he's always hit lefties well, and he was signed to hit lefties well, and this season so far he's hit lefties well; also, everybody go take a quick gander at DeJesus' splits
  12. sneakypower
    he'll probably cost $50M more, too i'd actually like both, though
  13. sneakypower
    it's hard for me to think of a (3-4) prospects package i wouldn't be willing to part with, for Upton
  14. sneakypower
    i really want to buy (relatively) low on Liriano
  15. sneakypower
    i'm worried Rizzo will ask to be sent back to Iowa, where he was having more of a challenge
  16. sneakypower
    stop calling him Matty
  17. sneakypower
    good lord, Hollandsworth is just brutal in the booth
  18. sneakypower
    Colvin's been the 4th-most productive hitter (min. 180 PA) on a per-pitch basis against fastballs this year last year, he was one of the worst hitters against fastballs (min. 200 PA) so, oddly enough, it's a lot easier to hit fastballs that don't move much at all (in Coors)
  19. sneakypower
    in perhaps the most pointless exercise ever... Brett Jackson, with Ronald Torreyes' K-rate: .394/.482/.750 (.375 BABIP) and a full-season pace of 162 R (lol), 54 2B, 30 3B, 36 HR, 106 RBI, 68 BB, 48 K, 54 SB
  20. sneakypower
    he goes to the same swing doctor that Ben Zobrist has; i've been intrigued by him for awhile, for no other reason than that Zobrist went from a 33 OPS+ player (SSS, i know) to a 126 OPS+ player after seeing that guy oh, and Trevor Floukke vs. RHP: .759 OPS (.285 OBP) vs. LHP: 1.225 OPS bases empty: .484 wOBA, 16 HR men on base: .242 wOBA, 3 HR he also has hit 18/19 of his HR to LF
  21. sneakypower
    didn't LA just give up a first for Sessions? they're like Oprah, with draft picks
  22. sneakypower
    0.34 FIP tonight, that's more like it
  23. sneakypower
    apparently Rizzo can do the splits edit: oh my goodness we have two Darwin Barneys playing in the field tonight
  24. sneakypower
    Valbuena runs funny
  25. sneakypower
    Rizzo certainly did not look surprised by that pitch
