ninjapirate Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I would just roll the dice with Altherr and Williams they have shown enough to not waste an asset to replace them at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Williams. I still question his plate discipline and ability to hit off speed stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like he has shown enough to be given the opportunity and I think Altherr might just be a better player when healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjapirate Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 wow i didn't realize how all stats hated altherr in the field until just now when I looked. I thought he had a good reputation out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be the biggest part of the rebuild that comes out of it. We already knew Odubel was a building block, but having Altherr is huge.

He should still be an average defensive outfielder. I don't know how much I trust defensive stats. Especailly range stats. It seems the more I look the worse I feel about them. Like Trout has a negative range factor. Too much seems based on a generic view rather than where the player starts for the zones. There needs to be something better out there.

Danger Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I'd rather have Galvis as SS with Crawford at 3rd than Crawford at SS and Franco at 3rd. Franco is a bum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
