More potential to be unlocked by a trade to a pitching guru: Michael Fulmer or Kevin Gausman?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:45
Perhaps Gausman

Does ZiPS attempt to quantify Brian Dozier's repeated ability to turn it on in the second half ? His wRC+ is 15 pts better in the second half across his career

THat's not exactly significant (and you expect some to do that by random chance)

How nervous should the Cubs be about Hendricks? That HR rate remains concerning.

How hard would it be to get back into Hearthstone if I haven't played the game in about a year?

It's best to do that in spring after a rotation.

DANFORTH! Now that you are a Fangraphs employee I can officially start to badger you with Fangraphs-specific complaints instead of more general complaints about beans in chili!

Astros being Astros, Mariners struggling. A's surging, Angels are there too, Trade deadline approaching. Look into the crystal ball and tell me how the AL West shakes out, please.
AvatarDan Szymborski

I think Astros pull away, Angels don't quite have the juice, M's/A's go until end of season

Could you see the Angels going after someone like Realmuto? They need a catcher after this season and they need help with the offense. What would it take to get him?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:49
The Angels are a tricky team for trading because they minor league system's recovery is top heavy
2:50
They have mostly guys they shouldn't dream of trading for Realmuto and guys Marlins should never trade Realmuto for

More seriously, I've enjoyed working with the people there, but after 8 years, you want to do something new.  I was doing the same stuff every week and not writing as much as I really shoudl at this point of my career.
I have a lot more freedom here to do different kinds of things.
