BP Chats
| Date | Question | Answer |
|---|
| 2010-11-09 14:00:00 | Has Ackley's AFL performance affected your opinion of him at all?
(biteme from Lake Forest, California) | Not really. The AFL is a very bad place to make opinions of guys. Record book is littered with names like Scott Pose, Ken Harvey and Tagg Bozied. Not a good place to make assumptions. When you read tomorrow's Mariners list, you'll see where I stand on him. (Kevin Goldstein) |
| 2009-10-09 13:30:00 | Can you compare the competition levels of the winter and fall leagues? How is the average ( average meaning BP reading, minor league following) fan to interpret VWL, DSL stats? Or do they mean nothing because we don't know what the clubs advised their players to work on? Thanks
(mrenick from Little rock) | It's a tough question and all of the factors you talk about are involved. On pure talent, Puerto Rico is consistently the lowest, but the rest are hard to gauge, as you do have guys working on specific aspects of their game, or learning a position, and the talent is so crazy varied, especially in the Dominican and Venezuelan leagues, that feature plenty of establish big league guys. Arizona Fall League is a scouting league for me -- numbers rarely mean much there -- when I think of some of the great hitting seasons put up there, I think about Ken Harvey and Tagg Bozied, so what does that tell you? (Kevin Goldstein) |
| 2009-07-01 14:00:00 | i read the BP morning write up on Chris Carter comparing him to another jack cust, you agree?
(jake from vegas) | Maybe he falls into something on a team that's first baseman-less and mired in the bottom end of the Hit List, but unless he learns how to hit pitches that wiggle, I'm a bit dubious as far as his ultimate upside. Stranger players have gotten multi-year opportunities (Ken Harvey, anyone?), but first basemen who don't rip everything against everybody wind up having catch-as-catch-can careers. (Christina Kahrl) |
| 2008-09-15 14:00:00 | Butler isn't even the least athletic Royal: Ken Harvey, Bob Hamlin.
(Tony from Albuquerque) | More good ones -- and what's with all the Royals? Don't forget Cal Pickering! (Kevin Goldstein) |
| 2005-03-21 19:30:00 | thanks for another great edition of your "guide". I see you predict a very, very nice year for Cal Pickering, with a VORP of 36.6 in 337 at bats. Any second thoughts?
(genghis from new york) | Great power, good eye. The Royals have shown a greater affinity for the suspect Ken Harvey, but if they trade Sweeney as rumored (who'll take Sweeney's contract is another story), Pickering should hopefully find his way into the lineup. I could see a short-peak Kevin Mitchell-type career from Pickering if everything breaks right. (Jonah Keri) |
