Ducksnort Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Tyson Ross is throwing for Texas. ERA over 7 (yet somehow has a 3-2 record). Might be a nice slugfest for our boys, and looking forward to seeing Lopez pitch another nice game. Let's see if Delmonico can continue his baseball demolition derby. First pitch 7:05 central (Thank God, I hate those late west coast games) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like seeing Moncada in the 2 hole. What do people think about Rick changing the line-up every game? I guess I dont mind it for a rebuilding team but not sure how I'd feel if we were trying to compete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I'm really happy for the type of production Davidson has performed, but, I also have not felt like he's been anywhere as close as Leury, Avi, Kevan Smith and now even Delmonico have to creating a shot at being on 2019 roster. Due to likely nobody being at 3b he's going to be around next year, but he needs a big jump in his walks. But I'm really happy that he's gotten a big league run and has come back from bad slumps. Those 2 years in AAA were really bottom barrel and he picked himself up and gave himself a chance at a turn in the bigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is an apples to apples comparison of the offensive production. It doesn't even touch the defensive chasm between the two. No it's not. Offensive WAR still takes into equation the defensive position that they play. Because 2b is much worse offensively than 1b or 3b, Sanchez's oWAR is going to look much better than Davidson's. Davidson has been the much better offensive player this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davidson, and FFS I can't believe I'm actually defending him, has a wRC+ of 102, Yolmer is in free fall and is sitting at 78. I love Yolmer's defense but from a purely offensive standpoint (which is pointless really because guys have to play defense...) Davidson is the better player. That said, Davidson putting up a 102 wRC+ has him at ZERO fWAR because he can't defend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
