Balta1701 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 21, 2015 -> 05:03 PM) LaRoche's strike out rate this year compared to last year is insane. One thing I don't think people who defend Hahn's offseason realize is that we actually paid premium prices to bring in both LaRoche and Robertson. 1.6 and 1.4 fWAR for them last year and we're paying $13 and $10 million for them. Even if they did what they did last year we're paying premium prices for them. Makes sense if they're the "last piece" on a championship roster.

Feeky Magee Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 21, 2015 -> 03:53 PM) Guys, Avi is in a slump. Everyone gets one. Just a matter of getting through it. Avi's whole career is a slump. He's a below average career hitter who hasn't shown any signs of getting better and this combined with his awfulness in every other aspect of the game makes him a below-replacement player. About -1.5 WAR for his career. And don't give me this "for his age" thing, at similar ages his statistics are pretty much identical to Dayan Viciedo's. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 21, 2015 -> 03:50 PM) He's exactly the kind of guy the White Sox should be trying to compile. Under team control for several years, has talent, if he flops so what, we lose more games? Oh darn. 67 wins instead of 68. No. The White Sox should be trying to compile players who actually produce on the baseball field. Avi's absolute upside given his awful defence and bad baserunning is what exactly, a 1-2 WAR player, even if you buy into offensive improvement out of nowhere?

flavum Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 I wonder if this season could be it for Alexei in the majors. He's made about 40 mil, and it could be tough for him to get a starting SS gig again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSs are still weak enough around the league that there'll probably be a couple million and a chance at a starting slot, maybe in competition with someone or for a crappy team like the White Sox next year if he wants to go another year or two.

Reportedly Pittsburgh wanted him but Hahn was asking for too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
