List of active 3B who Arenado is not and will never be better than: Anthony Rendon, Kris Bryant, Manny Machado, Kyle Seager, Justin Turner, Jose Ramirez, Josh Donaldson, Evan Longoria, David Wright, Adrian Beltre.
Arenado is about on par with Moustakas and Lamb.
>>77458748
that's correct. if walks and home runs make up a significant portion of your plate appearances when combined with strikeouts, it means you are an undisciplined hitter or a complete meme
>>77458777

Maybe you should stop saying "objectively" when you in fact mean "completely subjectively with no basis in data or evidence?"
Rockies baseball gives me special privileges I don't get to talk about often, like being close to forests in a liberal state. The forests here are great for meat racking buck naked and I go every weekend that I can.
Cops are very nice too since many are gay. They might even lend you a hand every now and then! One time a guy fucked my ass who looked just like Charlie Blackmon. Before he bent me over, he said "looks like its 4 balls, how about we take a walk down to first and score all the way home?" I never learned the guy's name, but I probably screamed "FUCK ME CHARLIE BLACKMON" over 100 times.

Having no Springer or Correa sort of hamstrings their offense at the moment.
Not to mention their ""ace"", Dallas Keuchel, is a David Price-tier malcontent for whining about the trade deadline when they're a favorite in practically any matchup. Their GM and front office is obviously on par with the Manhattan Project for doing something with his piss tier payroll in a division where the Rangers, Mariners and Angels could buy his team 10 times over.

The problem with Keuchel whining is...
Anyone they would bring in costs more than him. Then next year they have to pay him verlander money to be injured 1/2 the season.
They can't pay Springer Correa, Keuchel and some other pitcher who costs around 20 mil.
And no Darvish and Grey are not options, you can;t trade the prospects they have in the division.

The retard said he wants to get paid big money and contrary to popular belief no competing team is giving out 120 million+ to more than 3 let alone 2 and in many cases 1 player .
I guess to keep this short if he really wants to win he'll take a 120 million contract or risk "capping" his team

but here we are.
>>77468254
He's 7th in fWAR and 3rd in bWAR in mlb. Assuming Aaron Judge regresses and Mike Trout injury keeps him out of the running, he has a serious chance to come in 2nd or 3rd in MVP voting. Probably 3rd because the red sox are going to be in the playoffs and the angels aren't

>>77468407
You have to put a lot of trust in defensive metrics to argue Simmons as an MVP candidate, as he's just a moderately above average hitter. I don't think the voters do that. Adam Eaton was 8th in fWAR and 10th in bWAR last year, with offensive stats comparable to Simmons's and a significant chunk of his value coming from defense, and he was 19th in MVP voting.
>>77469011
I assume you're a bombston fan so you're used to just buying players but in order to rebuild you need to develop, trade and buy to get new talent
*leaves the haters in the dust*
>>77469047
>develop
>trade 14 prospects before the deadline so you can attempt to secure 2nd place and miss the playoffs
main problem with yanks is no left hand power hitters. if we stay in the wildcard or ale battle for first place and good bird shows up, I have confidence we can do some damage. either way this year was a success and 2018-19 is where we should be looking forward to. this year is nothing more than a teaser and whatever happens just happens
>>77466491

we went almost 20 years without a first round draft pick and missed the playoffs not that many times and yet had winning seasons regardless. some anon called the prospects I named a bunch of whos in another general, with that logic the first round pick doesn't matter either, it's just some who

>>77469527
real talk, no memes, exaggeration, or distortion: the Yankees are an excellent team on paper this season and relative to the rest of baseball, they have a rich farm system. Right now prospects are like 1. White Sox, 2. Barfs, *MASSIVE GAPING POWER GAP* everyone else though. However, they are the fucking Yankees and they have the most buying power in this sport. Bryce Harper could very well play in New York next season. James Paxton could very will pitch for New York next season. Once they cut the albatrosses or their contracts end, they're going to run out and sign some studs.
The Red Sox may have depleted their farm system but their core is under the age of 30 (Sale, Mookie, Benintendi, most others) and they're essentially in a 3 to 4 year playoff window. Bear in mind as well that the Red Sox are not every other team in the league and rebuilding a minor league system isn't as dismal or long term an effort as it is for the Padres or Athletics. As the payroll frees up, they can sign better production at first base and maybe even another meme starting pitcher.

>>77468407
Trout is still the best player. That injury just hindered his chances at the MVP this year
>hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
>>77469789
Torres, Frazier, Florial, Adams and Sheffield makes 5 on the top 100 list. Plus they have guys like Andjuar and Acevedo who have massive upside.
>>77469850
I think he'll win it if and only if the Angels make the playoffs. Assuming he maintains his ridiculous 200+ wRC+ anyways.
>>77469810
>even though every farm system ranking has them among the top farm systems in all of baseball
Because they still count Frazier and Torres as prospects despite being on the active roster. Meaning they are already contributing to the team. They are only technically prospects. If you exclude players not already playing in the MLB they have 2 pitchers in the top 100 and 1 out fielder. I don't believe any in the top 50.
>>77469832
Yankees fucked up badly this trade deadline
Does this also count orange duck pitchers throwing at batters?
>>77469832
>anglels fan
>tfw you will never know what it's like to have a good farm system
>>77469886
Torres is out for the season you fucking idiot. Why do you keep repeating this "active roster" garbage? Not to mention that Frazier will likely be sent down once Hicks gets off the DL.
>>77469886
>Torres is actively on the roster
>even though he's out for the season
Wew
>Frazier doesnt count as a prospect because he is temporarily filling in for an Injury
Imagine being this retarded and obsessed.
Btw, the Red Sox only have 1 top 100 prospect now. Devers doesn't count as a prospect since he's on the 25 man
What would New Englanders do if NYC didn't exist? Their lives would be empty
>>77469832
>yankees
cashman couldn't have done a worse job at the deadline this year. Why the fuck go all in this year when the pitching clearly isn't good enough? Everybody knew judge would slow down, maybe not as slow as this but still.
Yankees making reactionary moves to the red sox is pretty lame
>>77469926
>>77469922
Did Torres get injured while playing in the minors?
Your two best "prospects" have already shown you what they got. There is no future gain from them and they are only prospects in name as they already contribute to the team.
>>77469810
The Red Sox farm system is on the field and being a World Series capable team.
>Mookie, Benintendi, Vazquez, Devers, Bogaerts
These guys aren't close to their 30th birthdays. I don't see them having a "rebuild" any time soon.
Yankees farm:
#3 overall prospect
#27 overall prospect
#61 overall prospect
#89 overall prospect
#92 overall prospect
Red Sx farm:
#4 overall prospect
#48 overall prospect
Unless of course, players on the team right now don't count, in which case the Red Sox only have one top 100 prospect and the Yankees have 4.
>>77469948
Good thing we aren't in second place
>>77469978
Red Sox can actually call up young players and they work out. Yankees had to wait till judge was 25.. older than Bogaerts, Betts, Benintendi and Devers.
>>77469969
>Did Torres get injured while playing in the minors?
Yes? He literally hasn't played in the major leagues you retard.
>they are only prospects in name as they already contribute to the team.
Right, the guy who hasn't played above triple A is a prospect in name only. What could possess you to be this retarded?
>>77469977

Gary Sanchez was 23 last year. Clint Frazier is 22. Are you talking out of your ass AGAIN?
>>77469999
quads confirms it
Devers is 5 and a half years younger than judge, judge is older than half the red sox team
>>77470033

This is not rocket science.
>>77470329
The Red Sox called their farm up.. have you been watching baseball this year at all or what?
>>77470347
But when the Yankees call up prospects it doesn't count
>>77470347
>Red Sox have traded more top 15 prospects this year alone than the Yankees have in the past 5 years
Really makes you think
>>77470371
count for fucking what? how many are in the top 100? what do you mean
>>77470329
>Red Sox fans are good at understanding baseball and reading comprehension.
>Yankees fans are good at identifying types of hot dogs and pizza.
Don't worry, we all have our strengths.
>>77470418
You're the one that said that the Yankees sold their farm, yet they still have one of the highest ranked farms in baseball. I don't understand what's so hard to comprehend about this.
I'm just glad the Giants are finally dogshit bad. >We should trade for Bumgarner and make him a LOOGY just to piss off their fans.
>>77470388
They have 5 in the top 100, but apparently Frazier and Torres don't count
>>77470436
I think there are 3 or 4 different topics, but everybody is responding to them all.
Red Sox and Yankees both have brought up top tier talent lately and both should be good for a long time. Leave it at that.
Prospect lists change so frequently its honestly pointless to even talk about it.
>>77470345
Will you fuck off already?
>>77470446
Yankee fans say Devers and Benintendi don't count even though they are younger than Frazier. Just trying to stay consistent
>>77470345
Then why don't other teams' fans do this? Why is it just Giants/Dodgers and Red Sox/Yankees fans?
>>77470479
Benintendi isn't a prospect tho, and no one's talking about Devers. You're the one bringing up Frazier and Torres. Age has nothing to do with whether or not someone is a prospect.
>>77470490
The only other tight races are Cubs/Brewers (no fans on either side) and Indians/Royals (there's like one Indians fan).
>>77470502
That was another guy man, not me. Torres needs to worry about his Tommy John's before any prospect list.
Right but shouldn't that be considered a good thing for the red sox and benintendi? That he was good enough to come up straight from double A. Not sure why that is looked at as a negative during this topic
>>77470479
Benintendi isn't a prospect because of his at bats you moron. Yankees fans said that Devers didn't count as a prospect because they were using your 25 man roster logic against you.
Now can all of you fucking retards shut the fuck up?
Win or lose, Chicago has the best food..
>>77470514
You realize there have been more tight races than just this season, right?

shortstop has a big positional adjustment, worst hitters aside from pitchers. 85 wRC+ as a whole He also plays in a pitchers park
wRC+ by position btw, P -21, SS 85, C 89, 2B 93, DH 100, 3B 101, LF 102, CF 103, RF 105, 1B 114
>>77468407
He's the third best hitting shortstop in the majors this year though and Correa is injured and will be for a while. So could easily argue he's the best hitting shortstop in the AL.
>>77472651
Wouldn't it make sense for positional adjustments to be applied to dWAR, not oWAR?
>>77472615
it's like the Nationals went from having a dumpster fire of a bullpen to a mediocre Tampa Bay tier one.
>>77472671
what, are you retarded man just think about it. If you're good offensively at shortstop that's huge bonus points since the average shortstop is crap at hitting, so you have a shit ton more offensive value than a replacement level shortstop.
who are the most chimpish blacks playing the game today?
i have adam jones and stroman on my list
>>77472679
Compared to what they had before, I'm fucking ecstatic with a mediocre TB tier BP. With their lineup and rotation (if their health improves by October) they have as good a chance as anyone.

Francisco Lindor: .805 OPS, 2.7 oWAR
Andrelton Simmons: .813 OPS, 3.7 oWAR
It seems like Simmons is just gifted 1 oWAR out of nowhere, even in comparison to his shortstop peers. B-Ref even has him as more valuable than Corey Seager. That's just insane.
