Not sure who you are going to trade for that is a Bradish comp.  He has been pretty damn good. 

Well, for starters, a guy that I have been opposed to acquiring up until this point, Garrett Crochet.

My memory is a little hazy these days but I don't think Tanaka threw as hard as Bradish (?) 

In any case I'm not saying it's 100% the worst case scenario, but the optics don't look good.  I guess at the end of the day, all we can do is hope.

 

 

He threw in the low and sometimes mid 90s.

Was at a ML game and just watching it live, finally. 

After seeing Cedric so fired up after that original out call at the plate, I was almost priming for him to come charging the ump like George Brett if it were not overturned.

    • No, not at all. Im saying guys who hammer the ball and show a lot of characteristics of good hitters are more prone to be good at hitting a baseball than players who don’t do those things. Yes he has a hole in his swing and if he never gets better, never develops and never learns anything, he is likely no more than a really good fielding, platoon guy with elite speed..which still makes him one of our 3 best OFers.
    • Looks like his 100 PA rolling xwOBA going back to the end of May has hovered between .330 and .360 for the most part, without ever falling below league average. That probably only covers his last 30 games though, which were better production wise at least than the 30 games before that.  
    • OMG, I just started a super similar poll/thread!! LOL!! It's now deleted.
    • I think Owen Murphy by himself would be a bit ambitious if he was healthy. Although FG has him as #10 in an admittedly bottom 1/3 system, he's still a 45 FV prospect and has a fairly large amount of helium. Just for reference that would put him in the same neighborhood as Beavers. Given that he just had TJS, he might be available at a discount, though If I'm the Braves I probably just wait rather than sell low. 
    • In order of preference to trade: Mayo Basallo Holliday Mayo is going to be a big time power hitter, but his defense just isn't where it needs to be. Maybe 1B eventually, but the Orioles just don't value 1B as a defensive position. They'd rather coach people up to it (see: Santander, Urias, etc.) or bring it outsiders (O'Hearn). Basallo I'm very high on. I have no idea about how his size and defense will play in the long run at C. His future might very well be a power hitting, LHH 1B/DH. But if C is in play, that is super powerful for this organization because you can rotate Adley and Basallo at C, and play Basallo at 1B when he's not catching. Holliday is special, SSS in the majors be damned. His ceiling is SS, but that is going to be at odds w/ Gunnar, so 2B it is. But the speed is there. I can easily see Holliday being a 20/20 or a 30/30 guy year in and year out w/ an exceptional eye/patience. That is incredibly valuable. And he's only 20.  There isn't a sizable gap between Holliday and Basallo for me on how special they both are, just so we're clear.
    • How do you think the unthinkable?               Mike Tyson:  With an ithberg.
    • Definitely would be willing to trade a lot more for Skubal considering he would have 2 additional years team control after this season if I were the Os. He would slot into Burns role next year as the TOR with Grayson after him
