It's kind of amazing that they even managed that couple years of lucking into relevance with how utterly direction less they seem/ed to be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were basically the piggy bank for any team who goes crazy in LA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsoxsuck05 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 (edited) Gleyber ranked #20 in Kiley's trade value series. Not bad for a guy with a 15 HR, Jed Lowrie ceiling. Edited July 19, 2018 by redsoxsuck05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I threw out Jed Lowrie as the comp for the type of impact Gleyber will have, i.e. overall value. I said Gleyber will be an annual 3-4 WAR guy, with maybe a tad bit more in a peak year. A really solid guy to have on your squad, but he wouldn't be a superstar (like Jed Lowrie). For the record, even with what I would classify as unsustainable power numbers from him so far through 60-some games, his production would be extrapolated to 4.1 fWAR over 162 games. Of course, his defense isn't as bad as the metrics say in Fangraphs either, so it may even out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holt_bruce81 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Tyler O’Neil needs to be in the Majors. Not like anyone should be blocking him on the Cardinals roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure. He's not going to be able to work on the contact issues facing AAA pitching at this point. Of course, that means Dex rides the pine, which makes me sad. His plummet this year is one of the bigger head-scratchers of 2018 for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FGK Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Am I seeing this right that Tyler O'Neil has hit 23 home runs this year... while only notching 8 doubles? Is this PCL voodoo magic or just a hilarious SSS anomaly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was rebuilding, he'd be my #1 target in a prospects+Fowler for nothing deal. Then let Fowler rebuild some of his value and flip him, eating some of the money in a year or two.

I think the Cardinals would sooner do a Mike Leake deal and eat a majority of his salary before they attach prospects to him. That being said, the NTC is a bigger obstacle to overcome, and he's probably not going to waive that NTC unless he's either getting compensated or going to a contender. At $43.5M over the next three years, he's a burden for any team given his production. He's obviously not going to be this bad the entire season. I almost wonder if Atlanta would have interest in him if the Cardinals ate a good portion of his salary. That's probably a team he'd waive his NTC for.
