Lopez ERA by month

Recommended Posts

I have a lot of confidence that Lopez can be a MR, low leverage type guy. 

I have some belief that he could be a high leverage BP arm.  I would like to see the Os try him out in those types of situations this year, so that we know if he is a legit piece heading into next year (or at least gives us an idea that he could be).

Agreed. In the meantime, Wilkerson down/Jones up. Sceroler DFA (returned) and (insert name) up. 

I really think we will see Jones up this weekend.

As for Sceroler, the way he's being used he isn't hurting us much.   If their expert evaluation is that he has enough talent to justify keeping him in the system, then keeping him on the roster and using him like they did today is fine with me.   I certainly haven't been impressed but I'm not a major league scout.

If their experts say he is worth keeping than I question their experts.  He hasn’t ever really been good and still isn’t.

You said the same thing about Wells. Do you still think Wells was a terrible Rule 5 selection and should be returned?

I didn’t say the same thing about Wells.  I said there was at least reason to think he could be good and to give him a chance.  
 

What I didn't love was him over Pop, although that really wasn't the decision.  It was the thought process of saying lets not protect Pop and then turn around and draft 2 older relievers.   Wells may end up being better than Pop and we certainly should have both of them but I didn't love the process in which they did it and I still don't.

As soon as Means is back I'm moving Lopez to the bullpen, DFAing Harvey, and bringing up Bradish. 

I don't know that Lopez is worth keeping in the bullpen. I have a hard time believing that Bradish would be next man up but you never know. Seems like we still ought to be giving Lowther and Kremer some opportunities.

    • If he has been injured all this time, why are they still letting him play? After a month of poor performance with an injury, they should have sat him. EDIT - Screw a month, 2 weeks.
    • And McCann is our worst RHB facing a dominant lefty with reverse splits. You have to think a K is a high likelihood.  And then to send him up there with Ramon on 3rd, you have to expect the same outcome.
    • I don't like hearing that a catcher has a back issue -no matter how big or how small it is- at age 26.  
    • IMO he made two decisions that were clearly wrong, pitching to Witt and not PR Holliday, to go along with a couple others I didn’t agree with but are certainly debatable. There is no doubt that the game was lost because the bats couldn’t push a run across, but everyone has a job to do, and like the batters, Hyde didn’t do his.
    • I use the StatCast search function. It’s a little more complicated for chase rate, ground ball rate, popup rate, and sweet spot rate because you need to adjust selected pitch attributes/outcomes as well as total pitch definition and then use % of pitches. I believe popups are categorized by stringers and generally capture balls that an infielder could catch.  I believe Adley’s fly balls have gotten can of cornier even without the popups.
    • ...or simply choose not to even attempt to play situational baseball.  As I posted in another thread, 0-0 game both teams aces are dealing.  Ced leads off the inning with a double.  Your #9 hitter (McCann) is coming to the plate with your two best hitters (Gunnar and Westburg) to follow. Instead of bunting Ced to 3rd and almost assuring yourself a 1-0 lead which firmly puts the pressure on KC, Hyde chooses to let McCann swing away.  He feebly strikes out, Gunnar grounds out (there was your run), and Westburg flies out.  0 runs, 1 hit, 0 errors. 1 left on....
    • Adley - Is it an injury? Is it a woman? Is it the "process?" Is it just who he is at his age? What Is It? And no, I'm not doing a pole. Wait till 2025 for the answer - I think. Till then - speculate. This off season goin be fun on here. This thread kinda makes me miss Rick Dempsey and I have absolutely no idea why. 😄 Oh yea, he was our last WSMVP.
