Dang it, I'm going to keep beating the drum for this guy :)

Very early in the season of course but Haskin is off to a great start.  Slashing .320/.469/.560 through the first week.

Tony, I know you question his bat - can he play a good COF in OPACY?

Haskins is an solid defensive left fielder, but has arm limitations that really limits his overall effectiveness to that position. He doesn't really have the footspeed for center.

Haskins keeps hitting.  2/3 tonight with a 2b & BB.

on season 6k & 16bb 4.26 P/PA

~1/3 of hits are XBH 

Solid Trends.   

 

 

6 BB and 16 K.    Strikeouts are high but he’s doing well.   Unfortunately, I saw him misjudge a liner over his head in CF and his swing still looks funky.   Results matter though.

Thanks.  Fixed :) He has a really weird swing.  Kinda like a Tasmanian devil spinning himself into the ground.  Looks like the world's biggest roll over but somehow keeps bat going through the zone.

The prospect no one loves.   He’s hot!

Yeah no one loves him, no on clamors for him, no one dreams on him.  It will be interesting to see if he can just force people to take notice of him somehow.

    • I may be misunderstanding, but if you are suggesting that you would recall Rogers for the playoffs, then I must respectfully and strongly disagree. Baker is odd man out here, or maybe Smith, but I would definitely keep Bowman
    • A litmus test is if you'd prefer Trevor Rogers back for last guy. Tell me if it sounds crazy, but a pitcher you can sign to a minor league deal in mid-August might not be competitive with the world's greatest hitters in late September. It is fun to curate a trick pitch that works for a minute.
    • Just read two interesting tidbits - Juan Soto has battered him something like 18/35 which seemed like a lot but I guess PHI and WSN saw each other a bunch in the NL East. Also that he passed 1000 career innings.   It caught me a little by surprise he has been around that long.    Fingers crossed Bradish and Grayson in their careers can get there.    Eflin is 3rd among pitchers at age 30 and down this season. Hopping to Active Leaders to see how few pitchers attain that in this Driveline/Arm Barn era, tonight he became the 57th active pitcher to get there.     He gives us the ~162 IP we hope for in 2025, it'd go up about 20 spots.
    • Westburg, Urias, Mountcastle… Good defense, even when there’s bad defense. Westburg missed a ball that went for a hit, but I didn’t feel any foreboding, no,”here we go again” because I felt sure that that one play wouldn’t ruin the game. And it didn’t. Good pitching, even when there’s bad pitching. Eflin had never in his whole career walked 5 guys, but I wasn’t worried, for some reason. Even when Bowman had his worst outing as an oriole, I wasn’t worried, no,”here we go again” because I felt sure we’d win. And we did. Good hitting, good base running, even when Santander REALLY wanted that triple… and didn’t get it.  The fundamental baseball smarts seem to have returned, so a mistake is just a mistake. I feel really good about this team now, even though they haven’t been perfect. I really feel they’ll cover for each other, and we will enter the playoffs strong. I feel most comfortable about facing the Yankees again; they just don’t seem like a strong team, and I’m not the least bit worried about facing them again.
    • That is strong language coming from you.  The only recent guy I really couldn’t stand was Jimenez, though I sure wasn’t keen on Kimbrel for most of the season either.
    • Did you really say tonight’s game didn’t mean much? 
    • To state the obvious, the magic number for home field in the WC series is now 1, with 4 games remaining.   Would love to v close that out tomorrow va. the Yankees and then relax all weekend.
