3-1 so far. Goodrum HR.

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

Turnbull has been a pleasant surprise.

 

[turok]

Looks like 4 batters will have as many homers so far as Nick and Miggy combined @ the end of April and in an average of @ least 20 less PAs, including GG...go figure.



Both Harrison and Jones have been gawdawful @ the plate, with the forner sporting a -0.8 WAR, and the latter -0.5.

 

[jas5lf]

No hits for the Phils since the 2nd inning. Impressive pitching performance tonight.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Where would be without some of our pitching. And Turnbull has been great.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Who is Castro by the way..

 

[turok]

Greene gets his AL leading 12th save, still w/o blowing any.

Josh Harrison's LH batting injury replacement. and who might as well be his permanent, if the former continues to be a net liability on the roster by no later than mid-June. (if not sooner)


Joshy is like Jaque Jones was for the Tigers in '08, but piays the IF. Their stats are/were almost the same, but Jones actually had a slightly higher slashline when he was released in mid-May (and his salary was more than 3x higher according to BBR):

Harrison has been a waste so far. I just don’t understand why the Tigers never look for obp guys ? It just seems like our scouts are braindead.

Harrison had an obp well over .300 from 2013-2017, and was still decent last year. He is just not performing since he became a Tiger.

 

[Mitchrapp]

ST he was boss and now nothing. He needs about 4 months off.

Some guys never seem to completely adjust to the Junior Circuit, (esp SPs)...for example Edgar Renteria became a .300+ hitter in the NL, but not for the 2 seasons in the AL with the Red Sox in '05 'and Tigers in '08...then 2 years later he became freaking WS MVP with the Giants.
