possibly on topic, would you believe Khris Davis has the most HR in baseball since last year's trade deadline?
-
interesting that Raffy Devers jumped to the top 5 with a 60 wRC+ start to the season also that Joey Gallo corrected his discipline/K problems in a major way and essentially dropped from preseason ranks
-
well La Stella is a better true-talent player than Baez but that's none of my business
-
the 'pen is mightier
-
diesel??
-
he was always SS eligible it seems
-
oh yeah, neglected to mention i'd filtered out part-timers (<500 AB) because those aren't really indicative of much
-
was curious about ZiPS updates and changes in true talent-level, so i checked out the full-season (162G) WAR paces on pre-season projections compared to rest-of-season projections stock: up! Fowler: 2.4 to 3.9, 2nd biggest increase in MLB (behind T. Shaw) Zobrist: 3.6 to 4.7, 6th-biggest increase Russell: 2.9 to 3.3 Ross: 0.3 to 2.1 lol stock: down :( Heyward: 4.7 to 3.6, one of the biggest overall drops Soler: 1.5 to 0.8 Baez: 2.4 to 1.9 everybody else mostly even

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 5-21-16
sneakypower replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
does THO stand for anything or is it just a really [expletive] way to say 'though' -
Kang can play 3B; i'd still hold off on that one unless it's easy to find UTIL dongsmiths if you trade Story, you should expect a more sure thing...Taijuan Walker? Carrasco?
-
supposedly they get the Ghost of Injury Past, Zach Wheeler, back at the ASB
-
garbage hammel! today
-
lmao .367 wOBA Russell is like a 7-win player and .400 wOBA Bryant is full-on MVP material
-
also, i've said this before but i see it being a near-zero chance that Arte's willing to give him away to the Dodgers, which knocks out the biggest threat right away i'm not optimistic he ever gets traded, though; we're mostly being unreasonably vulturous here

2016 HR Derby :: Discussion + Transaction Thread
sneakypower replied to Southpaw19's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
drop Carlos Gomez add Travis Shaw -
the contract cost mostly makes it unlikely that the full package they'll require won't end up resembling David's sig as much as some are expecting

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 5-17-16
sneakypower replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
owning the strike zone the way he has (15.4% BB: 17.9% K), i've got full faith he's due for a correction sooner rather than later; last year too he started the season with a .630 April OPS to go .830 the rest of the way so Jeimer is still more of a stock: flat guy for me right now -
(and he wasn't set to earn $34m a year) 2 top-10 prospects is and was a fairly significant bounty
-
Albert Almora? I imagine there's quite a few situations where it would make perfect sense. together (with Contreras) still, give me a plausible scenario where it happens...best i can imagine is Soler with a total monster breakout, hitting like 30 HR the rest of the way, but even then i suspect he's the one pushed more in trade talks as a sell-high opportunity (also this isn't plausible, he stinks)
-
Soler, Almora and Contreras for Trout that still makes absolutely zero sense because i think we can assume Arte doesn't want his own fans to murder him and then shortly afterward perform a posthumous execution
-
i don't think people fully appreciate that Trout's already making a lot of money and that rightly should/will affect trade bounties i mean, his obligations (5x28, basically) are still a bargain for a player of his level, but i'm not sure that featuring a player like Russell who might be a 5-win player already and makes baseball minimum wage *while* also adding a TON on top of the offer is a thing that real baseball front offices can seriously entertain
-
ok so situate Heyward in CF, cool now we have a big hole in RF trading Almora and Contreras makes absolutely zero sense, period
-
holy horsefeathers, did we know this was a thing? http://www.orlandophantomsfootball.com/list/2016-defense/ the DE section is of particular note
