chasfh Posted June 9, 2022 Author Posted June 9, 2022 On 6/8/2022 at 9:59 PM, SeattleMike said: Wily Peralta is third, with a 0.8 BR WAR. The guy has pitched 22 innings with a walk rate of 5.2 BB/9 and he has the third highest WAR on the team? Bizarre. Expand Wily is super lucky. His RA9-WAR is 0.8 because it’s a results-oriented WAR that is influenced by his high strand rate (94%) and low BABIP (.246). Regress these to mean, and his fWAR, which is more predictive-oriented, is 0.1. The takeaway is that he is probably going to regress. As if we couldn’t tell by his stats anyway. Quote

kdog Posted June 9, 2022 Posted June 9, 2022 Quote But after a two-month layoff, Greene said he still needed time to acclimate to baseball shape. “Being back in games, it’s a different toll on your body,” Greene said. “Just trying to get my legs back under me was big, and I’m feeling pretty good now.” Greene was hitting .278 entering Wednesday. Tuesday against the Iowa Cubs, Greene went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored. He also had a terrific running catch in center, showing the type of instincts the Tigers have been lacking in the majors. The box score looks great, but the tape shows there’s a bit to go before Greene is all the way back to himself. The left-handed hitter with the sweet swing was rolling his wrists and missed a couple of hitter’s pitches. It’s a small sample, but since his return, Greene is hitting a lot of groundballs, one small sign he’s not ready to hit in the majors, even though he says his foot feels at or close to 100 percent. “As a hitter, when you’re feeling good at the plate, you want to keep playing in games and hitting,” Greene said. “When you can’t get that feeling back, it’s hard. It’s hard, and you know you’re trying to fight for that feeling back, and sometimes you can’t get it back. But I’m working my way up, trying to figure it out, and the feeling is starting to come back now.” Expand https://theathletic.com/3355843/2022/06/09/riley-greene-tigers-injuries-rehab/ Quote

It's why no-one hits 500. The only thing I've ever worried about with Greene are the K's. Quote

RandyMarsh Posted June 9, 2022 Posted June 9, 2022 If it is indeed another 2 weeks I guess we owe Lynn an apology cause that would make what 3‐4 weeks total he was there? Yeah Lynn said 5 weeks but if it ends up being close to 4 I will give him the benefit of the doubt. I honestly thought he'd be there a couple weeks tops. Quote

I've only seen him lose one so far and Jeimer and Javy have both had him working hard most of the time. I don't know what kind of glove Pete Alonso had with the Mets last season but with the Cubs Javy had Rizzo at 1st. If he threw in Chi like he throws here, Rizzo must have saved him a lot of errors as well. Javy's not uncatchable wild, and clearly the arm is a cannon, but he almost never makes a straight at the chest throw to 1st either. Expand Now if he can just catch foul popups. Quote
