I doubt that Baez' contract were laid out with Kreidler in mind, but if he is the real deal, the opt-out makes even more sense. Also interesting to think about Schoop's future as well.... maybe trade bait if Kreidler performs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMarsh Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Anybody got a sub to BA? I guess they put out their new Tigers top 10. They tweeted that Greene passed Tork for number 1 but as a non subscriber that's all I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is, although we have learned to take minor league fielding assessments with a grain of salt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greene will struggle in his first season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gehringer_2 Posted December 7, 2021 Author Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) news from the Freep that Paredes is picking kit up in Winter ball. After a bad start he has 18 for his last 40 with 4HR. What interesting is that if you compare the two clips below you can a change in his approach. He has changed the action on his left foot to stay back longer. Maybe a bit more upright as well. No doubt directed at helping him unlock more power. older stance here https://www.mlb.com/video/isaac-paredes-two-run-hr this week here: Edited December 7, 2021 by gehringer_2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyMarsh Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 If Paredes can unlock some power then I will definitely be more excited about him but as is he just doesn't make enough loud contact for me to get too excited about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Torkelson, Greene and Kreidler will all have great rookie seasons in 2023 after they spend a full year at Toledo in 2022 because we won't have MLB baseball at all.
