Not sure who this guy is although I see Luke and Tony follow him.  Have come across some of his tweets and he seems like he knows what he is talking about.

Definitely worth a follow. A lot of good insight and observations.

I went and watched several of his starts last night as well as video of Johnson, McDermott and Cano.  As usual, I'm going to be a little different from what I had read from some sources on these

Struck out the first three batters of the game.  They say he's 6'3'' 180 but he looks a lot taller than that.   Fastball sitting 91-92 and touching 94 and the curveball looks to be a real weapon for h

Elias is a clever, clever man.  

I have slowly come of the mind that Elias knows what he is doing.  I feel he is probably the smartest guy in the room whatever room he enters.   He is young, smart and driven to succeed.  And I honestly think he just loves Baseball.

Just gave up a 2 run homer.  5ks through 3 though. 

Pitched really well.  Couldn’t full on scout with a four year old running around but sat 91-94 with some kiddy-up.  Really just the one mistake but to be fair, Enrico Pallazo was behind home plate.  Everyone was complaining about the strike zone, well not the pitchers.

Solid AA debut.  5ip 3h 2r 6k 2bb on 47/79.  If you haven't seen this guy pitch yet, he's a tall lefty and really hides the ball well.  Didn't have his best control and fell behind a lot of batters, but had some pretty nasty stuff the guys were having trouble squaring up.

Curious if anyone can compare his profile to Drew Rom? Off the bat, Povich has more zip on his fastball with the potential to add more.

I've never watched Povich pitch, other than the short clips posted here, but it's an interesting thought-comparison, Rom is less than 4 months older than Povich, and has more than 3 times as many professional innings under his belt due to being drafted out of HS. ERA's are similar (Rom is about 0.3 runs lower), their BB/9 rate is basically the same, as is their HR/9. Povich has a higher K/9 rate at 12.5/9 against Rom's 10.6/9. Povich currently has more even splits against RH/LH batters (something that makes me wary about dominate MiLB LHP starters after watching Matusz). He's got a pretty even sub-.700 OPS against split against both sides, slightly better against LH's as you'd expect. Rom has a .200 OPS difference with RHs hitting him over .800 OPS/against for his career with LHs at less than .650.

In terms of actual stuff and shape of pitches, control, command, and velocity. I imagine Tony can speak more to that.

      Melewski’s a little slow.  I saw that yesterday, elsewhere.

      Trade Proposal: Fedde & Kopech for Norby & Beavers

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      I wouldn’t trade Basallo or Mayo straight up for Crochet. We need a starter and Crochet may not be a starter the rest of the year and this work load could affect his arm next year as well. He’s just too much of a risk and may not help us win this year.  If we could use Kjerstad to headline a deal, I would think something could be worked out.  Personally, I doubt crochet is traded. Getz is going to overvalue him and teams aren’t going to part with a top 20 guy and a top 50 guy plus more.  It’s just not happening, as I said it wouldn’t for Cease. As for other pitchers, some of the Texas guys are certainly possible. Miami has some intriguing options potentially. I’m a Detmers guy, although he’s a bit of a project.(maybe big BP help this year) I am also more about improving the pen first. End of the day, do I want Fedde starting game 3 of a playoff series?  As of today, I’m not sure I do so I don’t want to trade assets for that guy.

      Is O’Hearn that much worse than Mountcastle at 1B?  I don’t think so.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By Allan Bryant · Posted

      I understand your case and logic for Skubal  . I do like him too . However I question whether the Tigers will trade him and secondly , is Elias willing pay the high costs to acquire him ?  Knowing Elias , I’m not sure 🤷‍♂️

      But that’s my point, who are all these flawless options?  By no means do you have to trade for our guys, but it’s not a stellar group of starting pitchers.  You’ll likely take on some risk with whomever you acquire.  I don’t like taking specific comments and then generalizing the whole board, but there is quite a bit of nitpicking going on from a large group of posters on almost all the SP options not named Skubal as well as some overvaluing of your lesser prospects who are unlikely to get something of value.  Getting an impactful SP in this market is going to hurt one way or the other, you just have to decide what trade offs are you willing to take. I do appreciate your viewpoints because you seem capable of saying something might be fair in terms of value, but at the same time not be a trade you’d actually make.  Personally, I think Crochet would be a massive coup for you guys at the price I just mentioned, but I can respect if you feel he’s too risky.  I’m not sure there will another SP like him available in terms of potential impact and now is the time you guys should really be going for it.
