Defensive Stats That Matter

Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson discuss the playoff races, Yordan Alvarez, and defensive stats that matter. --- 00:00 Fred Pod 9-16 00:15 Welcome 00:30 News: 01:00 Yordan Alvarez sprains ankle….. 06:30 Yesavage, Eldridge debuted…… 11:20 Bo Bichette getting second opinion on knee….. 13:20 Jordan Westburg returns….. Kyle Bradish already looks like an ace again….. 17:30 Cole Ragans returns tomorrow….. 20:00 Sal Stewart continues to mash….. 22:15 Daylen Lile is hitting cleanup and having a nice September….. 24:20 Zach Neto to the IL 29:15 Chalkboard 30:15 Defensive stats that matter 31:05 Ceddanne Rafaela is second among CF in FRV. 32:45 Augustin Ramirez is dead last in baseball in FRV. 34:30 Edgar Quero is tied with Ramirez for the bottom spot in FRV. This is a big reason that Kyle Teel will be their No. 1 catcher next year. 35:45 Nick Castellanos is the worst OF in baseball and hasn’t hit well. 37:15 Logan O’Hoppe has a -11 FRV and has hit poorly in for several months. 38:45 Heliot Ramos has a mediocre .729 OPS and a -11 FRV. He could lose playing time too. 40:30 Ronald Acuna Jr. used to be an average CF. He’s now one of the worst RF in baseball (-8). His sprint speed has declined, likely due to injury. I may project just 15 steals. 42:10 How do we feel about Jasson Dominguez for 2026? He’s so young but has a -9 FRV and a .720 OPS. 45:46 BlueWire 45:50 Positive Defensive Stats 46:10 Patrick Bailey is the best defender in baseball by a wide margin. 47:15 Dillon Dingler and Carlos Narvaez have both been top-5 defensive catchers. 48:40 Ke’Bryan Hayes is the best 3B. No matter how he hits, he’s going to play. 49:30 On a per-inning basis, Denzel Clarke is the best defensive OF this year. 52:50 Trea Turner is a top-5 defensive SS and leads the Majors in average sprint speed. --- Chalkboard (primary sponsor) Download Chalkboard today and use promo code ROTOMLB to get $20 free with no deposit required!
