I tend to crush 1B-only types with below-average plate discipline and patience. Made me too light on Ty France but has generally been a good way to look at it. Tend to juice up-the-middle players with bat-to-ball skills.

Not a astute interpreter of peripheral stats, but Florial's numbers in Scranton this year don't look much improved than last year. Is his improved surface numbers a mirage?

I honestly don't know off the top of my head, I've been off that guy for a couple of years now.

Are you a Vinnie Pasquantino believer? Is he athletic enough to play 1B or is he a DH?
Eric A Longenhagen
12:48
Yes, was on our offseason 100. Think he's a good defensive 1B.

How big of a bump on the FV scale is in consideration for Ezequiel Tovar?
Eric A Longenhagen

Working on sweeping update for those East Valley teams and he'll be on their (our picks to click from the offseason are looking very good) though there's still a lot of out-of-zone chase happening there and my gut is to put him close to where Lio Peguero and Gabe Arias are, overall

(since they also have that chase element)

Hi Eric, I thoroughly enjoy your chat sessions.  I have a question about Kristian Robinson.  I have not heard much about him in awhile now.  Do you think he is still in Arizonas plans?  Thank you so much
Eric A Longenhagen

Good question, I haven't checked on his situation in a minute. I'll try to have new info for next week

When will Ceddanne  Rafaela make the big board?
Eric A Longenhagen
12:52
After this East Valley update I'll do Southwest Florida and stick him on there. Opinions are actually kind of all over the place, though the eyeball scouts are starting to come around in a big way.

Curious do you have access to minor league data and do you share it with your boy Eno ?
Eric A Longenhagen
12:53
I have offered my backlog of data to Eno but it would be such a bear to clean up and do anything with (because I've gotten it from countless different sources and every team does stuff a little differently) that he declined

Thoughts on Emmnauel Rodriguez prior to the knee injury? Numbers were insane
Eric A Longenhagen

Briefly saw him in Florida, one game was against Ricky Tiedemann. Plus bat speed, can run and play center field. I'm in
Sirras

At this point, who are the prospect writers on the team? And can you say who left for what other pasture or is that private?
Eric A Longenhagen
12:55
It's just me. The Twins hired Kevin, Pirates hired Brendan (who was a freelance contributor), and Tess (also a contributor) has stepped away temporarily due to life stuff.

Ok, I've gotta split. Thanks for coming to the site and hanging in the chat. I appreciate your readership and hope you'll consider an ad-free sub to the site if you have the means.
