He's not even really any good but god seeing Engel in the lineup makes me feel so much butter than Billy
Just looked it up, they literally have the same career OPS+ lol
Nick 'One Tool' Madrigal currently sits with:
A Sprint Speed in the 79th percentile
Outs Above Average in the 63rd Percentile
and a 118 wRC+.
Firmly above average on both sides of the field, and an fWAR of 1.4.
He’s said in the past he wants to stay but isn’t going to undervalue himself.
but maybe you can sneak something by if he continues to be just kinda okay this year.
Don’t disagree, but this team is going to be really really damn good for a long time. If it doesn’t pan out this year because those two never quite get healthy, they’ll be right back at it next year.
Gonna try and bring this one back to earth.
Sox lost their 2 best players (though Moncada is certainly made his push for number 1) for a huge amount of time and haven’t missed a beat.
people were concerned about not having people to fill holes if stars get hurt. And they were mostly right. But that hardly matters when your roster has 5 (maybe 6) guys that can carry a team.
