@PaulHembo Why do you say he's a natural outfielder? I don't believe he played OF in the minors and only has about 50 games in CF in 2016. So you just believe his tools lend themselves well to OF?

@PhilsTailgate Now let's do xFIP:
Luzardo - 1.96
Sanchez - 2.12
Painter - 2.99
Nola - 3.04

All top 25 in baseball.

Opposing teams' BABIP vs Phillies: .354, highest in baseball, and also would be the all-time record for any team, ever.

It's been frustrating, but it's also very unlucky.

@PlatinumKey13 Watched him a lot in Philly - elite stuff, he'll have some really good stretches. Main issue is the role - Soto wanted to be a closer in Philly, but did not do well in that role. More of a 6th/7th inning guy ideally. Can be frustrating. Might do better in a smaller market though.

@TheWARmonger_ Hey WM, would you be interested in being interviewed for a video on this catch? I run a small baseball YT channel (1.6K followers), and I would love to have your expertise to help round out a video I'm working on. Feel free to DM, thanks man 👍

@TheWARmonger_ Where can you see catch probability for this play already?

[Adam H @adamkh02]

@CDeNicola13 Great article, so well written!

[Adam H @adamkh02]

@Matt_Winkelman Aside from the obvious, what else have they driven that's wrong? Not familiar with their minor league system, is that what you're referring to?

[Adam H @adamkh02]

@HoopsRumors I believe Markquis Nowell has their other two-way spot, not Dowtin.

The Rockets sell low on Christian Wood, Dallas has a roster logjam, and Boban is on the move.

Looks like the current projection is 350 million Americans vaccinated by June 1.

@iFeeILikeKobe GSW will have his Early Bird rights, so yes, they can essentially match any offer.

I don’t think JTA would get up to this range, but the max for Early Bird contracts will be around $10M per year for 4 years.

Juan Toscano-Anderson’s interesting contract situation with the Warriors

[Adam H @adamkh02]

@iamgarrity Chriss is another interesting option to cut. Good point.

I imagine GSW would prefer to keep Chriss over guys like Poole, Wanamaker or Smiley, if I had to guess. But I’m sure your scenario is being considered as well.

[Adam H @adamkh02]

@mc_swaggletooth That’s fair! There are cases to be made for a couple of those back-end guys to be cut - Smiley, Poole, Mulder, even Wanamaker.

I figured I would skip that debate for this thread, but that’s a very fair argument. His clock is definitely ticking.

[Adam H @adamkh02]

@trinity71394 Yes, I should’ve mentioned that as well. 2.5 months is a long time in the NBA, lots of stuff could change the Warriors’ roster situation.

Trades, injuries, suspensions, league policy, etc.

[Adam H @adamkh02]

@GSWReddit Ahh, my mistake. Good catch.

Thank you for reading!

However, assuming JTA keeps playing like this, I imagine he would have a very similar value to House, if not a bit more.

That would make for a very interesting negotiation between the Warriors FO and JTA.
