jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 09/12/2024Even worse than not spending the money is that the ownership group are pocketing somewhere between $53M and $140M per year in operating incomes while the city publicly financed the stadium (so did Goodyear). 000
jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 09/12/2024One would weight each owner’s net worth with their number of shares to come up with a collective Reds net worth. There’s not enough public info to do it. 200
jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 04/12/2024A lifetime 1.54 HR/9 rate while the league average last year was 1.14 HR/9 is terrifying though. Giving up homers at a clip 36% higher than league average overrides his natural stuff. 000
jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 03/12/2024This move could be exciting because it would portend acquisitions of everyday outfielders. Don’t think it would be the wisest move to carry a DH and a platoon system simultaneously. 020
jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 27/11/2024Indeed bad BABIP luck was only part of it. He went from mashing to struggling against lefties. The avg LF position group had a -3.5 fielding run value and his -4 was slightly below avg. At league min pay in 2025, he’ll probably hit and field at MLB LF avg. Many other roster holes to worry about. 020
jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 27/11/2024Steer having a similar batted ball profile in 2024 compared to 2023 but then having a horribly unlucky .218 BABIP with bases empty tells you everything you need to know. He will be better in 2025. 100
jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 27/11/2024If MLB centralized all TV rights it would level the opportunity without reducing the pool of player pay. MLBPA will never accept a cap. 120

jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 25/11/2024Christian Encarnacion-Strand had an unlucky .247 BABIP and played hurt in only 123 PA but he still had a .432 xSLG that would've placed him in the 67th percentile if he qualified. In 2023, CES had a .476 xSLG when healthy and would've placed in the 88th percentile ifi he had enough PAs to qualify. 110
jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 24/11/2024My takeaway from the 2024 Reds is that third base is the biggest position of need more than the outfield. Arenado for Candelario and a mid tier prospect would be another solid MLBer for MLBer trade the Reds should pursue. 020

jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 20/11/2024Aguiar and Williamson will get put on the 60 day IL in early February anyways to open up space for depth pieces. Several other options to DFA or trade before then to create the needed space for upcoming acquisitions. 010

jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 17/11/2024India was quite good last year when isolating the comparison to only 2B. He had a 116 wRC+ and 3.3 fWAR when he played 2B. That’s probably a fair offer for a 2.5 fWAR pitcher that can reliably eat some innings. 020
jamesfox22.bsky.social @jamesfox22.bsky.social · 17/11/2024It’s interesting that Krall already made public comments on how expensive the starting pitching market is. The Royals would then be the ones looking for additional pieces. 000
