| 2013-04-25 12:30:00 | Before his (inevitable?) injury, Mets' catching prospect Travis d'Arnaud drew 12 walks in only 49 plate appearances. This is a guy who walked only 19 times in 303 PAs in 2012 and 33 times in 466 PAs in 2011. Is something like this most likely small sample size anomaly or pitchers simply not throwing a player strikes or a hitter suddenly "getting" the strike zone, or a little bit of all three? (Paul from DC) | That is a pretty drastic change, albeit in a tiny sample. If I were writing about it, I'd try to ask him, or one of his coaches, or at least someone who's seen him, to find out whether there's a conscious change in approach. In the absence of any other information, though, I guess I'd say mostly small sample with a pinch of "player repeating the level." (Ben Lindbergh) |
| 2013-01-16 13:30:00 | Other than Profar, Taveras, Myers and Bundy whom I anticipate ranking in the top 5 of most top prospect lists, who are the remaining top 3-5 offensive and SP prospects in the minors? (Brian from Worcester MA) | On the pitching side you're looking at guys like Gerrit Cole, Zack Wheeler, Jose Fernandez and Jameson Taillon fitting in that top group. Of the position players, Byron Buxton, Travis d'Arnaud, Xander Bogaerts, and Francisco Lindor fit the bill. (Mark Anderson) |
| 2012-01-24 13:00:00 | Hope you can help me! In an AL-only dynasty league, which of these prospects would you NOT trade for JJ Hardy to fill a dire need at SS - Leonys Martin, Travis D'Arnaud, Dellin Betances, Matt Moore, Neil Ramirez, Anthony Gose (jtanker33 from Dayton) | If you're all in for this season, then Moore is the only one I'd say is untouchable. That said, you shouldn't need to deal some of these other guys for Hardy either. D'Arnaud and Betances should be taken off the table if at all possible. I'd try to deal Ramirez first. (Derek Carty) |
| 2011-12-14 13:00:00 | Travis D'Arnaud, Career All-Star Appearances, 1.5, Over or Under?
(Bobby from LA) | Over. Way over. (Jason Parks) |
| 2011-09-02 14:00:00 | Any explanations for Travis D'Arnaud's power spike this year? Good hitter's environment, or just a talented guy figuring things out? (Nik from Hamilton) | Definitely B. Power potential was always there, and this is all a guy figuring things out. Nothing fluky there, it's all real. (Kevin Goldstein) |
| 2010-05-28 14:00:00 | Travis D'Arnaud career MLB all-star appearances, 0.5. Over or Under? (Susan from New York) | I'm a huge fan, so I'll take the over. (Kevin Goldstein) |
