  1. It would be hard to pair them in season unless they demote Mullins to A+/AA.
  2. He's had 4 seasons total where neither his oWAR nor dWAR were below 0.0 so I suppose he did it 4 times. I just don't like the comp, I think the only similarity is they are both 80+ speed guys. I don't think they profile the same at the plate, as Hamilton always had plate discipline and contact issues and the scouting reports on Bradfield report that he manages the strike zone well and has excellent contact skills.
  3. You'll also need to decide which is the superior defensive metric DRS or UZR. Bbref uses DRS, Fangraphs uses UZR. I know you went to Fangraphs for your defensive argument but Bbref has him as a 2 win player on defense in exactly 1 year with 9.3 overall for his career. But you cited DRS.
  4. Apparently, he lost it somehow. HOF defender, I agree.
  5. So you missed the suggestion that turning singles into doubles means if he's on first base, he's likely ending up on second base with his ability to steal bags. You might need another cup of coffee, you're not as sharp today, or you're just being obtuse.
  6. If Hamilton were a good defender those few 2 win seasons would likely have been 4 win seasons or more. I'd take that. Bradfield is an elite defender, Hamilton never was. Nice comp.
  7. I am firmly in the camp of not being close to worried about Bradfield at this time. Not even a tiny bit. The days of the blue-chip prospects are likely over for hopefully a long time. He doesn't need to hit for power, he just needs to hit, period. I don't care if he hits 130 singles a year because he's got the speed to turn half of those into doubles.
  8. So glad the greedy people couldn't come to an agreement on MLBN on YouTube TV.
  9. If Zavala is going to be the next Juan Soto, he better be on the ML team this year and put up a 142 OPS+.
  10. Rumors were they were asking for Westburg and it was a no go for Elias.
  11. I'm pretty sure someone there said Thorpe might be better than Cease this year. Thorpe has like 30 innings at AA.
  12. Chicago White Sox fan will be saying Zavala is equal to Basallo. They are going through the stages of denial over there about this being a great package.
  13. They thought they were getting Cowser/Kjerstad and Mayo+. Lol, Clownshoes over there.
  14. There will come a time when guys are going to have to learn to pitch at 90% effort, not max effort every pitch. I know the spin rates and velo are all the rage, but eventually, teams will run out of pitchers with guys throwing max effort every pitch of every start. Doesn't seem sustainable and something will have to give.
  15. He's going to be a good one. The kid has swing-and-miss stuff in a real way. 3IP 6K's today against 1BB.
