The movement is good on the change, he just doesn't trust it. If he just threw it hard like a Greinke change, I think he could be very good. He doesn't have the command to be Greinke or anything.

So Arrieta lost the cutter for around a year and then got it back? How does that happen?
Eno Sarris
12:31
I've seen some changes in his release point. Throws around his body, so maybe it's harder to keep all that in the right place.

Tommy Pham is running a high BABIP but still.. he has almost 4 fwar in less than 400 PA. Is he an above average regular going forward ?
Eno Sarris
12:32
I think so, but it's worth pointing out that he's already 28.

Berrios isn't starting today. It's Slegers instead.
Eno Sarris
12:32
Great day to start Berrios then.

Need MI help, who outta this waiver crew would ya want: Semien, Tim Anderson, Spang, Solarte, Cesar
Eno Sarris
12:33
Cesar because there's not much speed out there, Semien is still recovering that power, others mediocre.
You guys are a little more pessimistic than I am about Stanton. Hahah couldn't help myself.

Braves fan.  Looked at Andrelton Simmons slash line for the year, then looked at what Sean Newcomb has done and now need a drink recommendation.  Nothing session-able, need high abv.

Got some Boulevard Milk Stout in the fridge I'm looking forward to trying.

Yo, what was with Darvish's (lack of) Ks last night against....the White Sox?!?!
Eno Sarris
12:34
Maybe the back.

Chris Archer just always gonna underperform his peripherals?
Eno Sarris
12:34
A two-pitch pitcher runs the risk of having high platoon splits, and if you don't bake that into your projections/evaluative stat, then you might miss it.

Heading to Austin in a week. What's the spot I have to check out?
Eno Sarris
12:35
Rainey Street if you don't want to drive to Jester King.

Have you noticed any changes in Manaea that could be causing his struggles?
Eno Sarris
12:35
Velocity down, might be hurt.

Remember how three fruit smoothies perform better than two fruit smoothies, like their pitcher counterparts? Well four fruit smoothies are like Sonny Gray going bad. Too much happening most of the time

People who call it 'kung fu fighting' don't actually know kung fu

Sometimes it feels like Nomar Mazara doesn't get enough love.  22 years old, low K rate, increasing power, on pace for 100+ RBIs.
Eno Sarris
12:36
I'm all over him. I love him. He's an acquire if you're looking to sell in a dynasty keeper and want to find a young undervalued guy.
TRANE

Folty can consistently get to 2 strikes, then the problems start, counted 5 times last night 0-2 then the batter still got on. Is that a mechanical or mental thing?
Eno Sarris
12:37
I think his secondary stuff is not very good.

Have you ever seen a player on 3rd thrown out at home on a single to CF before? I have been watching the game for 70 years and that was a first.
Eno Sarris
12:38
JBJ the man. Also, it was a shallow single.

Dumb question of the day--is BsR a rate stat, or can a player accumulate "more" by simply playing more?
Eno Sarris
12:39
It's a counting stat, but, like WAR, you can put up negative work, so playing more might actually hurt your numbers.
Greg

Need a spot starter this week, Kuhl home vs STL or Conley at NYM?  Yes these are not great options
Eno Sarris
12:39
Kuhl.

Is it normal to have a man crush on Joey Votto?
Eno Sarris
12:39
Completely. I hope.

Allright, so check it on Stanton. Rough math with $10 m a win and .5 aging and yadda yadda yadda, if Stanton is a 6.5 win guy right now, he puts up 42.5 wins. If he's a 6, as projections say, he's 37.5. I'm in that 34-38 camp. That should give him $120-150m in surplus value, which is a top ten hitter, a top ten pitcher, and another top 50 hitter or pitcher. It takes less if you're in the other camps.
Why wasn't he just straight up claimed then?
Mike

who to keep out of R. Ray, J. Nelson, R. Hoskins, C. Santana (all same cost except Santana who is $4 more)
