| Date | Question | Answer |
|---|---|---|
| 2012-01-24 13:00:00 | Does Dexter Fowler stay in the majors and in Jim Tracy's starting lineup all year long? Do you see him as a breakout candidate this year? (Peter from Westtown) | It's hard to say if he stays in it all year, since they seem to keep him on a short leash, and Charlie Blackmon will still be kicking around in the background, but I do think Fowler has what it takes to hit .260 or .270 while OBPing .350 and stealing 30 bases. Whether that will be enough for the Rockies to keep him in centerfield and leading off, we'll have to see, but I'd like to that he will play well and be kept around. (Derek Carty) |
| 2011-07-21 16:00:00 | Please rank the following players according to who will have the best career: Colby Rasmus, Desmond Jennings, Dexter Fowler and Cam Maybin. (Kent from Coppell TX) | Rasmus followed closely by Jennings. I think Rasmus will flourish away from LaRussa (Jason Collette) |
| 2011-06-02 13:00:00 | Given their abundance of outfielders, any chance the Rockies give Charlie Blackmon a look before September? (Brady from Florida) | If Dexter Fowler’s struggles continue, there’s definitely a chance we see Blackmon starting in the Rockies OF within a couple months. (Derek Carty) |
| 2011-04-25 13:00:00 | Hi Marc, thanks for the chat. I'm wondering if I should trade Prince + Dexter Fowler for Mariano Rivera + Mike Stanton? My current closers are Joe Nathan (yikes) and Brian Wilson. Along with Prince, I have Votto + A-Roid at the corners...in a H2H points league...Thanks (cbelford from Chicago) | So, you're not using Prince at all? (Marc Normandin) |
| 2011-03-09 13:00:00 | Can Dexter Fowler turn into Kenny Lofton-esque player? (Eli from Tucson) | Kenny Lofton was a Hall of Fame quality player. Fowler is still fighting to not get platooned. He strikes out so much that I don't see him hitting hitting above .280, while Lofton was a .300 career hitter. But Fowler's supposedly going to lead off this year and play center, so I think that he'll definitely have some fantasy and real-world value. (Jeremy Greenhouse) |
| 2011-03-08 14:00:00 | Do you think Dexter Fowler will hold onto a full-time OF job in Colorado? If so, should we expect 40+ steals and a decent average? He seemed to pick up his game last year in the second half after his demotion to the minors. However, Jim Tracy seems to be a bit fickle with his OFs and other than CarGo is always splitting time among a few guys. (Pete from Bronx) | The big change is that Hawpe is gone now, leaving only four OF's for three spots, and Spilborghs seems to have pretty clearly played himself into the 4th OF/platoon role. 40 SB seems somewhat optimistic, but with a fast start (and the resultant job security), 30-35 seems a pretty solid expectation. (Cory Schwartz) |
| 2010-08-26 13:00:00 | Going forward in a standard league w/ OBP, SLG and OPS - Jay Bruce, Dexter Fowler, Coco Crisp or JD Drew? (Jeff from South Jersey) | I like Fowler the least of all of those guys right now. Drew is the safe pick, Bruce the upside pick, and Crisp is hitting as well as he ever did before he busted his finger open in his first year with Boston (and has 22 steals!) to boot. So it depends on what you prefer/need more of--safety, upside, or if you want to get some steals out of it while you're at it. (Marc Normandin) |
| 2010-08-04 13:00:00 | I cannot get anyone to answer this...On September 25, 1989 Andre Dawson hit one of the most bizarre inside the park home runs ever against Montreal. Despite Davy Martinez catching a deep fly ball, he came up injured on the play and was unable to enact a "voluntary and intentional" release of the ball, which is needed to record an out as stated in the MLB rulebook's definition of a catch. On Sunday, a similar play occurred when Dexter Fowler caught a deep fly ball off the bat of Alfonso Soriano. If you watch the replay, he never releases the ball as he is writhing in pain on the ground. In fact, the right fielder picks up Fowler's glove with the ball still in it and holds it while he is being tended to (see on MLB.com replay). Are you aware of this rule and should Soriano have continued around the base paths to score the game tying run? (Goose from Chicago) | ...Can I tell you how much I've come to dislike Firefox? I just don't know what to switch to. It seems like every browser has massive negatives. I like the idea of Chrome, but I've been told it swallows memory, and that's one of my big problems with Firefox... Goose, I love your question, but I'd want to look at some video before answering it. I will take the risk of an uninformed answer and say that the quality of umpiring is so poor, and we've seen so many misapplied rules (like the Don Mattingly thing recently) that I wouldn't be surprised if they just missed it. (Steven Goldman) |
| 2010-08-04 13:00:00 | Hi Steve
What kind of value do you think Dexter Fowler has going forward and next year? Thanks (Ed from Cranford, NJ) | I thought Fowler would be a little better than he has been. He's not a bad player given his batting eye, but he's not a great center fielder and he's going to need to get his batting average up to be a real regular somewhere. I see him as a fourth outfielder on a contender, something more on a bad team. Either way, he will be useful in some way, but there's no star potential here. (Steven Goldman) |
| 2010-08-04 13:00:00 | Half your age plus 7 is the dating rule...by all accounts unnamed is SAFE!!! (JT from MKE) | I didn't know there was an official rule book for this stuff. What does it say about passing out before you release the woman? Would that have helped Dexter Fowler? (Steven Goldman) |
| 2010-07-09 13:00:00 | In my aforementioned dynasty league: we score heavily based on OPS. What are the odds that Dexter Fowler becomes are more valuable keeper than Denard Span by the end of the year, assuming they will cost the same coin? (sharkey from MPLS) | I still don't like Dexter Fowler as a source of stolen bases, especially relative to Span. And I still like Span's power potential over Fowler's, though he hasn't shown much in that regard this season. Fowler's stock is rising for sure, but I'm a big fan of Span. (Marc Normandin) |
| 2010-03-25 14:00:00 | Hey Joe,
Care to share some of "your guys" for this season? (Fred from Houston) | I've been including some of these in the pieces I've been writing for Rotowire, but off the top of my head...Trevor Cahill, Drew Stubbs, Alfredo Aceves, Rickie Weeks, Dexter Fowler, Chris Outfielder Young. Ruben Gotay if finds his way to the majors. (Joe Sheehan) |
| 2010-03-04 13:00:00 | Listening to Baroness.
Dexter Fowler values seem to be all over the place. Why such a disparity?
(Ragnhild from Blue Record) | Different interpretations of his growth for 2010. I expect 2010 to be a more productive version of 2009 without a huge step forward, so I like him but I'm not obsessed. (Marc Normandin) |
| 2010-02-05 13:00:00 | How come no one is talking about Dexter Fowler? (chumsferd from pasadena) | Because he's pretty good, and with an impressive ceiling, but he isn't there yet and plays a position that already has loads of talent. (Marc Normandin) |
| 2010-01-28 14:00:00 | Predictions for Colorado OF PT? (Jim Lahey from Sunnyvale) | Dexter Fowler doesn't lose that much playing time to CarGo, and Ryan Spilborghs keeps getting the short straw. (Christina Kahrl) |
| 2010-01-21 13:00:00 | My last slot in a deep keeper league looks like it's coming down to Dexter Fowler and Rick Porcello. I usually prefer the position player, but Porcello could be special. At the same time, both might have another year or two of development before they really get going. Preference for 2010? Long-term? (Rob from Alaska) | I would normally prefer the position player too, but Porcello's last two months were pretty impressive. I just wish his strikeouts would jump up, but it will happen with time. He could be a beast in the second half of 2010... (Marc Normandin) |
| 2009-11-24 13:00:00 | Do you see Dexter Fowler growing into some power? If so, how much? He seems like a late bloomer to me - he gained 15 pounds last offseason and then grew an inch this summer! It's like he's still 17. (Rob from Alaska) | I can see him becoming a consistent member of the 15/30 club. (Eric Seidman) |
| 2009-12-01 13:00:00 | Can I consider CF locked up longterm with Dexter Fowler there, or should I be looking for better in a 12 team mixed keeper? (Nate from SC) | There's a lot to choose from in center, so I think you could probably do better than that given it's a mixed league. I like Fowler a lot, but center is loaded. (Marc Normandin) |
| 2009-10-02 14:00:00 | Are we any closer to getting your picks for surprise stars from each of the playoff teams? (Frank Costanza from Queens) | It's like asking me eight questions at once. Not easy. Brett Gardner. Billy Wagner. Aubrey Huff. Erick Aybar. Chan Ho Park. Colby Rasmus. Hong-Chih Kuo. Dexter Fowler. (Joe Sheehan) |
| 2009-06-25 13:00:00 | Your thoughts on the future production of Dexter Fowler and Colby Rasmus? What is their upside as you see it and who gets there first? Thanks. (tommybones from brooklyn) | Fowler's upside is Kenny Lofton, but maybe more of a Devon White type of player. Rasmus...Curtis Granderson? (Joe Sheehan) |
| 2009-06-18 13:00:00 | What kind of stats do you see Dexter Fowler putting up in two years? Are they high enough to make him an upper-tier fantasy option (points league)? (tosaboy from Milwaukee) | I don't know if he has the build to start putting up serious power numbers. PECOTA sees him as a sub .200 ISO guy during his peak years, which seems right to me. If he can cut down on the strikeouts, he will be a much more valuable bat, even without the homer power. (Marc Normandin) |
| 2009-05-04 14:00:00 | What are your thoughts on Dexter Fowler for this year and his long term potential? (mgaynor7475 from Cumberland, RI) | I'm on record as loving, just absolutely loving, Fowler. I think he's already a major-league center fielder, a better player than, say, Cameron Maybin is. His power is still coming, and he'll have to manage his contact rate, but he'll hit .270/.340/.410 this year and go from there. I could see him peaking like Curtis Granderson, maybe a bit better. (Joe Sheehan) |
| 2008-11-12 14:00:00 | Love your work, Kevin. Can I get a sneak preview on Dexter Fowler ... ETA and ceiling, or a comp you like? Thanks (jlewando from dc) | No sneak preview, but I'll say this based on a discussion with a scout. Fowler is one of those guys, and I love these types, where the second you seen him jog out to his position, you say "I want one of those". When those guys back it up with the performance, that's even more awesome. (Kevin Goldstein) |
| 2008-10-06 14:00:00 | Do you have a sense of who will be the top 5 prospects heading into next year? Some combination of Snider, Bumgarner, Heyward, Price, Wieters? Moustakos? Cahill? Feliz? I know this is nominall Kevin's territory but what's your opinion? (Frank from Seattle) | Wieters is my clear #1, and Price and Feliz are 1 and 1A for pitchers. Of guys you didn't mention, I'll say I love Carlos Santana and Dexter Fowler. (Joe Sheehan) |
| 2008-09-03 14:00:00 | Charles Blackmon is supposedly still a bit of a project even as a college player, but he has been great in low A. What's his power potential, and overall outlook? Could he be another Dexter Fowler? (Matt S from Chicago) | I'm a Blackmon fan -- but he's one of those weird, unique players where he's a college product, but still a raw tools guy. So I'm a fan with some reservations. (Kevin Goldstein) |
| 2008-07-30 12:30:00 | If the Rockies are buyers and not sellers, who are they dangling to get SP? Ian Stewart? Dexter Fowler? I assume Holliday and Atkins are off the table. (Rob from Alaska) | Stewart is a possibility but they seem to be looking more on the low end with guys like Fogg and Byrd and they won't have to give up a top guy to get someone like that. (John Perrotto) |
| 2008-07-30 12:30:00 | Since the Rockies aren't selling, any chance they call up Dexter Fowler right after the Olympics to see if he can help and be playoff eligible? It's only Willy Taveras ahead of him..... (Jonathan from New York) | Haven't heard anything on that but I would say it's possible. (John Perrotto) |
| 2008-07-03 13:00:00 | I am looking forward to attending the Future's Game. Traditionally alot of these players have made an MLB impact. I am wondering what you project of Dexter Fowler, Gorkys Hernandez, and Taylor Teagarden. Will I see you there? (jake1m from Jenny Lind, Ca.) | I won't be able to make it to the game. I don't get too many chances to travel right now, between family and radio obligations.
I think that Teagarden would have gotten the call over Ramirez had he been healthy when Laird got hurt. But therein lies the rub - staying healthy has been his biggest problem as a professional. I like him better defensively than the other Ranger catching prospects. I think that Fowler's development is one of the reasons why the Rockies are entertaining notions of trading Holliday. My only concern with Hernandez is whether he develops any power, but I love his speed and his contact rate. (Jeff Erickson) |
