Spot Check: Call my name, Alejandro

By Ian Kay

Here are a few widely-available starters whose matchups, recent performance and horoscope readings point to useful turns in the next couple days.

Because why use a roster spot on one pitcher when you can use it on three?

Mixed league

Brett Myers, Astros (available in 76 percent of Yahoo! leagues)

Start: Wednesday, July 21 at Cubs

Outlook: Why is Myers still a spot starter? Why is he available in so many leagues? Stop the madness! Myers has gone at least six innings in each of his 19 starts this season, has a 3.19 ERA since the beginning of May and won’t kill your WHIP. The Cubs have the fourth-worst offense in the NL and Myers already shut them down once this season (6 2/3 IP, 9 baserunners, 2 ER, 6 Ks and a win on June 6). Grab him and hold him until things go south — I’m begging you.

Jorge De La Rosa, Rockies (51 percent available)

Start: Thursday, July 22 vs. Marlins

Outlook: JDLR’s first couple turns after returning from a 10-week DL stint were pretty messy (7 2/3 IP, 10 H, 11 ER, 6/6 K/BB), but I say he rights the ship on Thursday. Ks have always been his calling card and only the D-backs have struck out more then the Marlins this year. Mike Stanton already has hat hair from the Golden Sombrero-to-be (just kidding — Dave <3’s Mike Stanton and so do I).

AL-only

Marc Rzepczynski, Blue Jays (99 percent available)

Start: Wednesday, July 21 at Royals

Outlook: It’s uncertain how many starts Rzepczynski will make for Toronto, but he’s someone who should be on the AL-only radar. The left-hander posted a 3.67 ERA in 11 turns for the Blue Jays last season and he comes with definite whiff potential — 9.5 career Minor League K/9, 60 Ks in 61 1/3 big league innings last year and 10 more in 6 2/3 frames this season. The Royals have the AL’s highest batting average (that stat is guaranteed to win you money in a bar bet), but their lineup seriously lacks pop. Roll the dice with Rzepczynski. And for the record, it’s pronunced “zep-CHIN-ski”.

NL-only

Alex Sanabia, Marlins (99 percent available)

Start: Friday, July 23 vs. Braves

Outlook: Summer, 2010: Lady Gaga’s hit song “Alejandro” surges into the top-5 on pop charts worldwide. Simultaneously, Alex Sanabia posts a 2.03 ERA and 65/16 K/BB ratio for Double-A Jacksonville. Alex’s real first name: Alejandro. Coincidence? I don’t think so either. Clearly, what we have here is a spurned right-hander trying to win back his pop icon ex-girlfriend by upping his strikeout rate and limiting walks in his first season in the high Minors. “Don’t call my name, don’t call my name, Alejandro.” It’s working, too. Sanabia held the Nationals scoreless and struck out five over 5 2/3 innings in his last start. “I’m not your babe, I’m not your babe, Alejandro.” The Braves have scored more than four runs just three times in July. If Sanabia pitches a no-hitter Friday while Gaga cheers him on wearing only her underwear and a Marlins jersey — well, he might just become mixed league relevant.

Tales of Giancarlo

(By Dave)

Note: I have no idea why the rest of this post is in bold, SO BACK OFF

Mike Stanton has been hitting the ball very well and far lately. Let’s dig a little deeper.

The 21-year-old outfielder is batting just .235 on the year with six homers, 23 RBIs, a .445 slugging and an 11/55 BB/K ratio. Those are not the kind of numbers that inspire conga lines.

But these might:

.313-21-52 line in just 192 at-bats with Double-A Jacksonville.

And so might these:

Over his last 11 games, Stanton’s batting .297 (11-for-37) with four homers, four doubles, 10 RBIs and a .730 slugging percentage. If that wasn’t enough, and perhaps it isn’t, he’s also shown a more-mature-but-sure,-it’s-not-incredible 5/11 BB/K ratio in that span, and he’s only fanned once in his last five games. Show me progress!

With a free-swinging approach, it only makes sense that it would take some time for Stanton to morph into a Major League hitter. And to take an Ian Kay approach to this little writeup, Stanton is owned in only 25 percent of Yahoo! leagues. Personally, I’d rather take a flier on his power potential than keep the likes of Jose Bautista, Brennan Boesch and maybe even Colby Rasmus.

Weekend tidbits

By Dave

Things I liked and disliked over the weekend:

Matt Diaz: Raise your hand if you like platoon players. Come on! Diaz went a
combined 5-for-8 with two homers, five RBIs and two doubles between Saturday and
Sunday. He’s batting .400 (14-for-35) with a .829 slugging for July. For those
of you who are actually disciplined enough to go about it, Diaz is the perfect
platoon option to insert in your lineup, as he owns a .278/.316/.574
triple-slash vs. lefties this year, and is a lifetime .341 hitter vs.
southpaws. NOW raise your hand if you like platoon players. Thought so.

Gordon Beckham: Ian
already covered most of GBex here, but feel free to bend Beckham again after
his 4-for-4 Sunday.

Yunel Escobar: Went
3-for-4 with a grand slam – his first homer of ’10 – on Sunday, and is 6-for-13
as a member of the Blue Jays. Yu know yu want to pick up Yunel.

Dexter Fowler: Everyone’s favorite serial killer went
1-for-12 on the weekend which improves his slump to 1-for-25. Time to cut bait.
Few managers are as fickle as Jim Tracy, so expect Fowler to lose at-bats immediately.

Travis Wood: Took
the tough-luck loss vs. the Rockies on Sunday despite limiting Colorado to one
earned run over six innings while striking out six against four walks. With
quality starts in three out of four tries and a 23/9 K/BB ratio, there’s some good
Wood here.

Jeanmar Gomez: Tossed
seven innings of earned-run-free ball and fanned four in his first career start
vs. the Tigers on Sunday. That’s the good news. The bad news is that he posted
a 5.78 ERA and a 67/41 K/BB ratio over 101 innings for Triple-A Columbus this
season. Now the not-so-bad, kinda-good news is that Gomez went 10-4 with a 3.43
ERA and a 109/40 K/BB ratio over 123 1/3 innings last season as a 22-year-old
in Double-A. This portion of good news/bad news/not-so-bad, kind-good news is
brought to you by Advil.

Starlin Castro: Batting
.545 (12-for-22) over his last six games with three doubles, a triple, two RBIs
and two steals. Hitting .367 and slugging .571 on the month and has hit safely
in 17 of his last 19 games. Just press click.

Kevin Kouzmanoff: Went
5-for-13 with a homer, two doubles and seven RBIs over three-game series with
the Royals. And that’s why you pick up guys when facing Royals pitching.

Jose Tabata: The
guy that Pirates got from the Yankees for Xavier Nady and Damaso Marte is
batting .458 (11-for-24) with four doubles, three RBIs and two steals since
July 9. Need steals? No? Well, need a Pirate? Yeah, ya do.

Justin Smoak: Went
0-for-4 with three strikeouts on Sunday. Wait! There’s good news! Went 5-for-7
with two homers and four RBIs between Friday and Saturday. I’m not saying you
should start doodling his name in your binder, but you should at least consider
dumping Chris Davis for him.

Chris Davis: Whoa, sorry there Chris — didn’t see ya standing there. Davis is batting .182 (4-for-22) with zero extra-base hits since his callup
after the Smoak deal. I want to ❤ Davis so much but he gives me no choice
but to start seeing other people.

Miguel Montero: In
the middle of a 3-for-27 slump and is reason No. 219 why you shouldn’t have
drafted a catcher before Round 20 this year.

Geovany Soto: Unless
it was Geovany Soto! Soto’s been hitting .373 with three homers, six doubles, 14
RBIs and seven runs since June 27.

Jay Bruce: Batting
.109 with nary a homer or RBI since July 2. How bad is a .109 average? It’s
5-for-46. Now just look at how small that first number is compared to that
second number.

Chris Perez: With
Kerry Wood on the DL, Perezis the new closer in Cleveland. He saved Saturday’s
first game against the Tigers. It was a double-header. How fun are those?

Rickie Weeks: Went 3-for-5 with two homers on Sunday, is batting
.429 (9-for-21) over a five-game hitting streak and now sports a .272-17-57
line on the year. How much do you hate yourself for vowing not to be fooled by
Weeks again?

Injuries-a-go-go: Justin Morneau

By Dave

Justin Morneau hurt his head and is now officially on the
DL. The move is retroactive to July 8 but Morneau’s injury trail is retroactive
to 2005. And just because you can’t replace a guy who is hitting .345 with 18
homers and 56 RBIs doesn’t mean you can’t try.

Pickup possibilities:

�
Casey Kotchman – Hitting .400 (12-for-30) with
four homers and seven RBIs in last 10 games. That’s the good news. The not good
news is that Justin Smoak started over him last night and that the chances of
Kotchman replicating those numbers even without Smoak hovering around him are
nein!

�
Travis Ishikawa – Wiretap favorite, Ishikawa has
hit safely in eight of his last 10 games, batting .375 (12-for-32) with a home run and 11 RBIs
in that span. Remember Crystal Clear Pepsi? That was awesome. Remember Crystal
Clear Gravy? Also awesome. Remember Ishikawa socking nine homers with 49 runs
scored and 39 RBIs in 300 at-bats as a starter last season? Also , also awesome.

�
Chris Davis – You knew this already. See — here’s proof. Just ignore that whole paragraph on Wieters, k? Good.

�
Justin Smoak? – Worth monitoring but let’s see a
pulse before we press click, k?

Matt Wieters also landed on the DL yesterday. This is
actually good news since having him in your lineup everyday was likely hurting
you more than just leaving that roster blank. If only now you are tracking down
a replacement and ignored the Carlos Santana, Buster Posey, Miguel Olivo and
anyone-not-named-Matt-Wieters gravy train, then your team has probably been out
of contention and you probably aren’t reading this right now.

Tradespin: The one with Yunel Escobar and Alex Gonzalez

By Dave Feldman and Ian Kay

A decently sized trade went down on Wednesday, as the Braves and Blue Jays swapped shortstops. The mind-numbingly frustrating Yunel Escobar heads to Toronto and the over-achieving Alex Gonzalez will take his talents to Atlanta. Additionally, the Braves sent pitcher Jo-Jo Reyes over the border, with Minor Leaguers Tim Collins and Tyler Pastornicky going the other way.

What the Jays got …

For owners still holding Escobar after a .238/28/0/19/5 first half, this trade provides a dash of hope on the horizon.

The 27-year-old was the 10th shortstop and 115th overall player drafted in Yahoo! leagues before the season, but currently ranks outside the position’s top-30. Basically, owners were expecting Elvis Andrus or Alexei Ramirez value but got Nick Punto or Cesar Izturis instead. Ick.

Or rather, owners got that (lack of) production until about mid-May and then dumped Escobar like third period French. He’s currently 45 percent owned in Yahoo! leagues.

Howevahhhh…

A gander at Escobar’s peripheral stats shows few significant differences between this season and ’09, when he posted a .299/89/14/76/5 line and was fantasy’s eighth-most valuable shortstop. His strikeouts are down slightly, his walks are up and his batted ball rates are roughly the same.

So why the Rey Ordonez-esque numbers all of the sudden? Well for one, Escobar’s BABIP this year is .270, compared to a .316 career mark. For another, none of his fly balls have cleared the fence. His HR/FB percentages the last three years: 10.1, 9.1 and 7.9.

Trade or no trade, this is a man due for a serious luck reversal.

Not that the trade won’t help. The Braves scored two more runs than the Blue Jays in the season’s first half, but Toronto’s lineup blasted 66 more home runs and slugged 51 points higher in that span. Toronto also offers a better home ballpark for hitters, and Escobar will have the luxury of more games at Fenway Park and Yankee Stadium and less Nationals Park and Citi Field.

Put together the luck factor and the change of scenery, and, I’m giving Escobar a “cautious buy” rating. For those of you familiar with the Homeland Security Advisory System color scale, Escobar would be Status Yellow: Elevated — significant risk of solid production.

I say he does something around .290 AVG 37 R, 6 HR, 33 RBI, 3 SB the rest of the way and proves more valuable than Gonzalez, Marco Scutaro and Ryan Theriot in the second half.

Jo-Jo Reyes, the other piece going to Toronto in this deal, is far less interesting for mixed leaguers. The left-hander has a career 6.40 ERA, 1.67 WHIP and 128/98 K/BB ratio in 41 Major League appearances (37 starts). His Minor League K numbers are intriguing, but he’ll likely begin the second half in Triple-A and is only a spot-start option in deeper mixers if called up.

What the Braves got …

Leaving Canada and the friendly confines of the Rogers Centre along withthe power-hitting Blue Jays lineup should likely translate into diminished power production for Gonzalez, who was batting .259 with 17 homers and 50 RBIs at the break. But, hey, it’s not like you really expected him to hit 30 home runs this year, anyway. A lifetime .248 hitter, Gonzalez’s .259 average shouldn’t change too much with the change of scenery, but his likely drop in power production should relegate him to the bench or even waiver wire in most mixed-league formats.

Counterpoint: The trade of poutine for peaches should only help his waistline.

The big coup in this deal for Atlanta comes in a small package. Tim Collins is just adorable! The five-foot-seven, 155-pound Collins has been one of Toronto’s most eye-opening prospects this season, as the southpaw reliever posted a 2.51 ERA with a jaw-dropping 73/16 K/BB ratio over 43 innings for Double-A New Hampshire. The Braves have a keen eye for young pitching talent,as Collins will now join Arodys Vizcaino, Julio Teheran, Mike Minor and Randall Delgado in what is widely regarded as the most formidable collection of Minor League pitching prospects.

The 20-year-old Pastornicky was a fifth-round pick by the Jays in the 2008 First-Year Player Draft and was batting 258 with 16 doubles, six home runs and 35 RBI in 77 games for Class A Dunedin. He’s stil a ways away from potentially making a Major League impact. I wish I could tell you more about him, but I can’t.

The 2010 NL All-Value Star Team

By Ian Kay

Dave already took care of the AL squad here. Remember, we’re not picking the best players of the first half — just those who have provided the best value since draft day.

Catcher: Miguel Olivo, Rockies

Yahoo! ADP: 21st catcher, 226th overall

2010 stats: .325 AVG, 42 R, 11 HR, 42 RBI, 4 SB

Olivo has hit second-round pick Joe Mauer by 32 points and has more than twice as many homers (11) as the catcher drafted immediately before him — Jarrod Saltalamacchia — has at-bats (5).

Also considered: Buster Posey

First base: Aubrey Huff, Giants

Yahoo! ADP: 39th first baseman, 238th overall

2010 stats: .295 AVG, 55 R, 17 HR, 54 RBI, 3 SB

Owners savvy enough to only pay for Huff’s sub-par ’09 numbers on draft day are reaping the benefits now that he’s returned to his ’08 form.

Also considered: Adam Dunn, Troy Glaus, James Loney, Joey Votto

Second base: Martin Prado, Braves

Yahoo! ADP: 20th second baseman, 215th overall

2010 stats: .325 AVG, 51 R, 10 HR, 39 RBI, 4 SB

Prado was drafted between Kazuo Matsui and Aki Iwamura. Those two are currently playing in Triple-A. The Prado is the NL batting leader at the break.

Also considered: Kelly Johnson, Rickie Weeks

Third base: Scott Rolen, Reds

Yahoo! ADP: 43rd third baseman, 253rd overall

2010 stats: .290 AVG, 43 R, 17 HR, 57 RBI, 0 SB

Rolen is on pace for his best power output since he hit 34 dingers back in ’04. Not bad for a guy drafted a round after Emilio Bonifacio.

Also considered: Casey McGehee

Shortstop: Rafael Furcal, Dodgers

Yahoo! ADP: 12th shortstop, 174th overall

2010 stats: .333 AVG, 51 R, 6 HR, 35 RBI, 14 SB

What a run it’s been for Furcal. The shortstop went from injured afterthought to savior for many a fatasy squad with a .369/.414/.604 line, six homers and six steals in 35 games since May 29.

Also considered: Juan Uribe

Outfield: Carlos Gonzalez, Rockies

Yahoo! ADP: 39th outfielder, 144th overall

2010 stats: .314 AVG, 56 R, 17 HR, 60 RBI, 12 SB

No other player with at least 17 home runs broke double-digits in steals before the break. The closest? Albert Pujols with 9 SB.

Outfield: Chris Young, Diamondbacks

Yahoo! ADP: Not in top-50 OFs

2010 stats: .314 AVG, 56 R, 17 HR, 60 RBI, 12 SB

Only two NL players went 15/15 before the All-Star break. The other — Matt Kemp — cost most owners a first round pick back in March.

Outfield: Angel Pagan, Mets

Yahoo! ADP: Not in top-50 OFs

2010 stats: .315 AVG, 46 R, 6 HR, 40 RBI, 19 SB

Pagan is still unowned in over half of Yahoo! leagues. How many steals is it going to take for this guy to get noticed? Do you realize that no other NL outfielder is batting .300 with more than 12 swipes?

Also considered: Corey Hart, Colby Rasmus, Andres Torres, Josh Willingham

Starting pitcher: Mat Latos, Padres

Yahoo! ADP: Not in top 50 SPs

2010 stats: 10-4, 2.45 ERA, 0 SV, 99 Ks, 0.97 WHIP

Even the most bullish projections only had Latos emerging as a solid No. 2 or 3 starter this season — not a full-fledged staff ace. With a 99/28 K/BB ratio, owners shouldn’t expect too much of a dropoff in the second half.

Also considered: Jaime Garcia, Tim Hudson, Ubaldo Jimenez, Josh Johnson, Carlos Silva, Adam Wainwright

Relief pitcher: Matt Capps, Nationals

Yahoo! ADP: Not in top-50 RPs

2010 stats: 3-3, 3.18 ERA, 23 saves, 33 Ks, 1.41 WHIP

Many expected Capps to only serve as a place-holder for a few months until Drew Storen was ready to take over ninth inning duties for the Nationals. Twenty-three saves later, the right-hander actually has pretty decent job security.

Also considered: Ryan Franklin, Leo Nunez, Billy Wagner

July 13, 2010

The 2010 AL All-Value Star Team

(DAVE)

It’s never not fun debating who should be on the All-Star team. It’s definitely less fun debating who should be on the made up 2010 AL All-Value Star Team — but, hey, let’s do it anyway!

One thing to note, Yahoo! wasn’t always so helpful in providing guys with their preseason ADPs, so if I didn’t know a player’s ADP, I didn’t put it in. That makes sense. OK, let’s dance:

John Buck (.272
AVG, 27 R, 13 HR, 41 RBIs)

Yahoo! ADP: N/A

It would have been much funner to place Carlos Santana here
but Uncle Buck takes the cake with one of the truest where-did-that-come-from
first halves I’ve seen in a while. Chances are he’s still available in your
league, and I’m actually quite fine with that.

Other nominees:
Carlos Santana, Jason Kendall (um, what?) , ~~Matt Wieters~~

Paul Konerko (.299
AVG, 50 R, 20 HR, 63 RBIs)

Yahoo! ADP: 249.9

Konerko is already just eight homers shy of tying his total
from ’09, is playing for a new contract and is batting in the heart of a
scorching ChiSox order. Will he keep it up? Well, probably not. His 17.5 HR/FB
ratio is likely too high for Pauly K to sustain, and he hasn’t hit north of
.277 since ’06. But, um, yeah – not bad value for the 25^th round.

Other nominees:
Miguel Cabrera (yeah, he’s been that good),
Nick Swisher, Justin Morneau (went
in the 3^rd-4^th rounds in most drafts)

Elvis Andrus (.280
AVG, 57 R, 0 HR, 25 RBIs, 23 SB)

Yahoo! ADP: 115.1

Pretty much buttered all of his bread by stealing 11 bags
with a.340 AVG for June.

Alex Gonzalez (.259
AVG, 47 R, 17 HR, 50 RBIs)

Yahoo! ADP: 195.3

Went undrafted in several leagues and has outperformed and
has one more functional thumb than Chase Utley.

Other nominees: Erick
Aybar, Cliff Pennington

David Price
(12-4, 2.42 ERA,1.20 WHIP, 100 K, 115 1/3 IP)

Yahoo! ADP: N/A

Jered Weaver (8-5,
3.20 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, 137 K, 121 IP)

Yahoo! ADP: 114.3

Andy Pettitte (11-2,
2.70 ERA, 1.15 WHIP, 87 K, 113 1/3 IP)

Yahoo! ADP: N/A

Phil Hughes (11-2,
3.65 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, 91 K, 101 IP)

Yahoo! ADP: N/A

Clay Buchholz (10-4,
2.45 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, 64 K, 92 IP)

Yahoo! ADP: N/A

So I guess Price finally “figured it out”, Weaver leads the
AL in strikeouts, Pettitte is old but good, Buccholz was dealing prior to hitting the DL and Hughes was one trade away from going to the bullpen. But he’s still really good.

Other nominees: Jeff
Niemann, Carl Pavano, Carl Pavano’s mustache, Colby Lewis, Trevor Cahill. You
can make a case for any of these guys.

Rafael Soriano (2-0,
23 SV, 1.60 ERA, 0.80 WHIP, 29 K, 33 2/3 IP)

Yahoo! ADP: 136.7

So this is what his stat-line looks like when his arm isn’t
falling off.

Other nominees: Carlos
Marmol, Jose Valverde, Neftali Feliz, Jon Rauch

Cheap Thrills: Roger That

By Ian Kay

It’s one of fantasy land’s most mythical beasts: the
power-speed threat who won’t kill your team’s average.

Rarely seen in the wild — or on the waiver wire — most
owners are forced to pay upwards of $30 at pre-season auctions or surrender
vast riches in the trade market just to catch a glimpse of this oh-so-valuable
commodity.

But peer through the trees, owners, and you’ll see Roger
Bernadina — a potential roto unicorn quietly roaming the outfield of Nationals
Stadium.

Bernadina appeared poised for a breakout rookie year last
season after hitting .335/.400/.490 with nine homers and 40 steals over 120
games split between Double-A and Triple-A in ’08. Unfortunately, a nasty broken
ankle limited his ’09 season just 10 games.

The injury doesn’t appear to have any residual effects,
however, as the 26-year-old bounced back to hit .282/.345/.436 with five home
runs and seven steals in the first half, including a stellar .329/.409/.476
line in June.

Though the .335 average in ’08 is something of an outlier
compared to Bernadina’s Minor League track record, his peripheral stats
indicate that something in .275 range isn’t too much of a stretch. The speed is
certainly for real (he averaged 40 steals per 162 games in the Minors), and power should continue to develop as he becomes more comfortable at the big
league level.

Slotted into the No. 2 spot in Washington’s lineup,
Bernadina should be in line for plenty of runs with Ryan Zimmerman, Adam Dunn
and Josh Willingham backing him up. Stellar defense in right field should will Mike Morse from stealing too much playing time, and the three-day
All-Star break should provide ample time to fully recover from the back stiffness
that hampered him last week.

Put it together Bernadina’s skill set and opportunity, and
you’re looking at a floor of Willy Taveras or Corey Patterson type production
and a ceiling of Brian Roberts or Shane Victorino (circa ’07-’09).

In the short term, I’m projecting him at .277 AVG, 40 R, 7
HR, 32 RBI and 17 SB for the remainder of 2010. He should be owned in all
NL-only formats and has enough upside to play in 12-team or deeper mixed
leagues.

Just 2 percent owned in Yahoo! Leagues right now, I think he
outperforms the more-popular David DeJesus (50 percent), Austin Jackson (45
percent) and Franklin Gurtierrez (36 percent) after the break.

Talking with myself: July 12

By Dave Feldman

Q: Vicente Padilla (look at that face, so adorable) struck out six over eight shutout innings vs. the Cubs. On a scale of 1-10 how
much should I care?

A: Probably. He’ll likely go back to being the Rockets point
guard once Aaron Harang returns from the DL later this month.

Q: Hey, look (Part I)
– Johan Santana tossed seven scoreless innings in a win vs. the Braves, has a
0.39 ERA in three July starts and is
back pitching like it’s 1999 again. And by that I really mean 2004. Will he
keep it up?

A: How dare you ask for the 1-10 scale twice in one Q&A!
Who knows with Beckham. One day he’s good, 12 days he’s not good, five days he’s
not playing because of something called Brent Lillibridge. I like his .255
BABIP going forward, I don’t like his 20/53 BB/K rate. Put him on your squad if
you have the space and/or need the middle-infield help.

Q: Madison Bumgarner
is so good you titled the Rundown after him. Was that just because his name is
fun to say with a British accent or is he really good and someone who should be
owned in most leagues?

A: PETCO (3.02 ERA, 1.12 WHIP, 57/24 K/BB), meet not-PETCO
(3.71 ERA, 1.49 WHIP, 33/21 K/BB ratio). Now you two play nice.
