Yes, those are the metrics that Frobby referenced in the OP. I agree, it is hard to know how accurate they are. Could be a case of garbage in-garbage out. Regarding blocking, it's hard to believe Adley would go from #1 last year to average that quickly. If you count the whole time period of 2022-23 he is still #2. -

Considering how well they played in May, it gives some room for a bad stretch. And by bad stretch I mean that if they play .500 for the month of June I would be satisfied. I only say that because the last home series left the impression that regression is in order. Not to sound like a downer, but the division is still too much to expect. So as long as they can keep pace in the wild card standings then it’s a respectable season. -
Thanks I think I see what you are referencing (attached below) but I just have a problem with the metric. Here is another question for the group: why is there a such a strong correlation between good pitching staffs (chiefly starters) and "good" catchers especially in the attached framing reference. Is it the pitcher of catcher? To me it's difficult to "siloize" pitching and catching stats. Chicken or the egg? I'll submit that better pitchers make better catchers and especially aid in framing-also baserunning, WP/PB-really every measure of catching. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/catcher_framing?year=2023&team=&min=q&type=catcher&sort=4,1 https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/leaderboard/catcher-blocking?players=592663-2023-143&selected_idx=0 -

Does Kole Calhoun fit the bill over Vavra? He just opted out… https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/06/kole-calhoun-yankees-opt-out-free-agent.html -

Slugging % and line drive % are still way down. He’s still a great player and will continue to be a great hitter. Doesn’t offer much in the field. Does he get $400M+ in FA? I’m not so sure.
