Inning now over 1 Inning 3 hits 2 ER 21 Pitches.

At least he didn't walk anybody. :noidea:

Like I said when he signed, if they get the 2011 Yoon it's a coup, if they get the 2013 Yoon they tossed money out the window.

I wouldn't be shocked to find out Dan is playing the long game and isn't expecting anything out of him all year.

Honestly I am more excited/optimistic about at a Santana resurgence then Yoon, granted I would gladly take major league club helpful performances from both, but it all the depth signings can hit thier target.

As for Yoon, hopefully it's just an adjustment or two he needs to make. Definitely need not worry too much yet.

    • Was just flipping through the channels and I came across The David Rubenstein Show that airs on Bloomberg TV. (He was interviewing Jane Goodall) I have Fubo now and I don’t remember the Bloomberg network on other services I have had in the past. Makes me wonder a few things: 1) Were Bloomberg and Rubenstein behind MASN going to Fubo? 2) wonder if Os games eventually end up on the Bloomberg network and their app?
    • Looks good. Last time Mateo was 0 for 2 with 2 K's vs Ragans (starting in CF), so need to give him a start. However, Urias and Westburg were flipped on defense. That would be my guess.
    • Did/do Elias & Co. really think he was/is ready for prime time? I can't believe they bent to pressure to bring him up. This is a cautionary tale that there is a big difference between spring training/AAA and the major leagues. I'm guilty as one who wanted to see him up, but this isn't working. It's really hard to watch. I feel for the kid.
    • I think he makes it through the road trip at least. Don't think they would be flying a prospect across the country. If he still looks lost at the plate ,can see him being sent down on the off day next Thursday. Or maybe they trade him to the A's for Blackburn, Gelof, Max Muncy and Mason Miller before the series.😀
    • Machado (207 games) vs. Henderson (202 games) 1. 7.5 bWAR vs. 8.0 bWAR 2. 912 PA vs. 835 PA 3. 239 hits vs. 194 hits 4. 21 HR vs. 38 HR 5. 97 RBI vs. 115 RBI 6. 8 SB's vs. 15 SB's 7. .279 BA vs. 259 BA 8. .309 OBP vs. 331 OBP 9. .435 SLG vs. .493 SLG 10. .744 OPS vs. .823 OPS 11. 101 OPS+ vs. 130 OPS+ 12. All-Star + Gold Glove + MVP-9 vs. ROY + Silver Slugger + MVP-8 Henderson was clearly more advanced offensively upon debuting, but he was 13 months older. Machado was the more fluid defender I'd say. It's super close in my opinion.
    • He can only play RF or DH.   Among players with 40+ PAs, Ryan O’Hearn leads the league in xwOBA at .531. He has a .950 OPS with .260 BABIP.  Despite not playing against lefties, I can’t see them decreasing O’Hearn’s role.  Adley often takes the DH spot vs lefties. I’m not sure if Elias/Hyde are fully comfortable yet with Kjerstad in RF.  He may be a downgrade from Tony defensively. Tony has struggled at the plate so far but he’s a streaky hitter that will be close to .800 OPS and 30 HRs when the season is over. It’s not a sure thing that we get better production from Kjerstad the rest of the way.  Replacing Tony with Kjerstad also makes us our lineup very lefty heavy. I don’t think Kjerstad is a massive upgrade from what we currently have in those spots given what we’ve seen in terms of MLB adjustment periods. Now maybe we can trade Tony or O’Hearn for a key piece while replacing most of their production.  However, it’s not clear what their trade value is in terms of MLB players - they will only be if interest to win-now teams who are unlikely to move top quality pitching. 
    • Should Holliday keep whiffing over the next 15-20 at-bats, Elias et al will certainly win my respect if they send him back down. I'm fine with Mateo and Urias. They both had great spring trainings and are fine defensive players who can man several different positions. Mateo adds speed and it's possible that we've been missing out on another torrid April from him (SSS but his 143 OPS+ with 3 doubles in 19 ABs implies we have been).  I would love it if Urias regains the batting prowess and power he showed in 2021-2022 and the '22 glove.
