2017 Cleveland Indians

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I feel like this isn't a serious post.

I am actually being serious since I don't know what places to go for numbers. I would always do my own before the season started. Since you guys could care less about my numbers, I want to where to legitimately find places that have projections.

Yandy Diaz ZIPS projections:

.260, 8 HR, 43 RBI

May I have a link?

So how did Jose come out of nowhere last year? Was he on any radar to do this? What is his best position and is he any good defensibly?

Depends on how you view prospects/take stock into minors performance.

Some people see guys who hit at every stop in the minors, and at a very young age for the league he is in as well, and then expect that to eventually translate to the MLB level as well.

Kind of the case for Jose, or at least was what people who defended him after his early struggles said to get people to step off the ledge a bit with regards to his future. He hit at every level in the minors, while consistently being one of the youngest guys in his league every year...figured it was only a matter of time before he figured it out at the MLB level too, if you take stock in minor league performance at all.

Not sure any of us expected the doubles surge...but a few expected him to post high BAs, get on base quite a bit, K:BB fairly evenly, and steal bases, because that's what he did at every stop as a pro.

He was also a top 20 prospect for us for a few years, our 12th best prospect the year he broke into the MLB, and was performing well enough and thought highly enough by the organization to reach the majors as a 20 year old...so its not like he came out of nowhere.

He's a plus defender at 2B and 3B, a wash at SS, but he is by far his best defensively at 2B. Probably takes over that spot when Kip hits free agency in the winter of 2020.
 
Batting average >>>
 
This rivalry between sportscoach and AZ is literally my new favorite thing on RCF. And yes, I even through a literally in there - which means it's serious.

This is almost better than Storm's once a generation posts.
 
I know I'm a few days late but that's an insanely good deal for Ramirez. He could have gotten a boat load more on the open market if he continues to improve.
 
7 years, $75-80 million for Lindor should be on the table.

Lock him up until he's 30, evaluate his long-term value in 2024.
 
I feel bad for @sportscoach. Comes off as bullying at this point to me.

Last few pages dude is asking for information and you guys are attacking him. If he was cleverly attacking back it would be one thing, but it moreso appears to be a guy extending an olive branch being ganged up on.

Just my take you little cunties.

I agree, he has turned the corner, its time we back off. I had my fun with the 4.2 40, but he is being a decent poster at this point understanding the community.

Lets all try fresh with @sportscoach, he is clearly trying at this point.
 
This is the 2nd or 3rd time in the past couple days I've had to delete posts.

If you don't like what a guy has to say or his opinions to the point where you constantly make fun of him, criticize him, condescend him, and refuse to help him when he asks for information, then use the ignore function.

Debate all you want. If you get sick of debating, agree to disagree and move on. Stop resorting to stupid, pointless, condescending posting.
