January 30, 201412 yr That'd be the dumbest decision they could make. If you want to at least attempt to look like you're trying to win, you can't let Latos leave. 100% agree. Extend him now.
January 30, 201412 yr Keeping the top two is still cheaper than all three? You can't let your best guy walk. If they aren't serious about winning, keep 2 and 3. If they are, it has to be 1 and 2 or, at worst, 1 and 3. Who is 1? I would say Bailey is clearly 3rd.
January 30, 201412 yr Who is 1? I would say Bailey is clearly 3rd. Latos because of Cueto's inability to stay healthy. If everyone is healthy, not sure. Heck, if Cueto can't go through the majority of this year without an injury he goes to 3. Just my opinion.
January 30, 201412 yr Who is 1? I would say Bailey is clearly 3rd. Latos is clearly #1. I think I'd be inclined to say Homer is #2, as Cueto worries me. I don't think he'll ever stay healthy with that delivery, and he's too dumb or stubborn to change it.
January 30, 201412 yr Who is 1? I would say Bailey is clearly 3rd. His numbers don't say he is 3rd. You know.....
January 30, 201412 yr His numbers don't say he is 3rd. You know..... Cueto's past 2 season #'s (2012 listed first for each): ERA: 2.78, 2.82; WHIP: 1.171, 1.055; K/9: 7.05, 7.56; ERA+: 148, 136; WAR: 5.9, 1.4; OBA: .231, .190 Bailey's past 2 season #'s (2012 before 2013 again): ERA: 3.68, 3.49; WHIP: 1.24, 1.124; K/9: 7.27, 8.57; ERA+: 112, 110; WAR: 0.9, 1.5; OBA: .236, .213 I'll let you guys draw your own conclusions.....
January 30, 201412 yr Cueto's past 2 season #'s (2012 listed first for each): ERA: 2.78, 2.82; WHIP: 1.171, 1.055; K/9: 7.05, 7.56; ERA+: 148, 136; WAR: 5.9, 1.4 Bailey's past 2 season #'s (2012 before 2013 again): ERA: 3.68, 3.49; WHIP: 1.24, 1.124; K/9: 7.27, 8.57; ERA+: 112, 110; WAR: 0.9, 1.5 I'll let you guys draw your own conclusions..... Cueto 24 - 11 Bailey 24 - 22 :sssh::sssh:
January 30, 201412 yr Nope, I think Cueto's wussitis knocks him down the ladder. It's not numbers oriented so I can't be included in the sabremetric analysis. I do think it's funny though that you numbers guys go on gut where to rank starters.
January 30, 201412 yr I do think it's funny though that you numbers guys go on gut where to rank starters. How so??
January 30, 201412 yr How so?? If you are going strictly by numbers should there be any deliberation? Shouldn't it be cut and dried? I say Latos, Cueto, Bailey but don't look at a single # to make an eval.
January 30, 201412 yr If you are going strictly by numbers should there be any deliberation? Shouldn't it be cut and dried? I say Latos, Cueto, Bailey but don't look at a single # to make an eval. Well yeah, there should be. You gotta take injury history in to consideration. If all 3 are healthy, it's Cueto, Latos, Bailey, and the #'s pretty much support that.
January 30, 201412 yr Well yeah, there should be. You gotta take injury history in to consideration. If all 3 are healthy, it's Cueto, Latos, Bailey, and the #'s pretty much support that. You take into consideration who has the most sac. That would be Latos. He's the #1. All eyeball.
January 30, 201412 yr Here's are a couple hypothetical questions: In a World Series, who do you want to start game #1? How about game #2?
January 30, 201412 yr Here's are a couple hypothetical questions: In a World Series, who do you want to start game #1? How about game #2? Latos and Latos.
January 30, 201412 yr Here's are a couple hypothetical questions: In a World Series, who do you want to start game #1? How about game #2? Depends on the match up but I'd go Cueto then Latos.
