DateQuestionAnswer
2011-03-24 13:00:00Who's your pick for "first all-star Yankees fan demand a small-market team trade to them for a pile of sweatsocks and an Orange Julius"?
(Ratcatcher from Narnia)
Are we not counting Francisco Liriano? Because that already happened. Beyond that, "Dave Robertson for Ubaldo Jimenez. Who says no?!?!" (Emma Span)
2010-08-17 14:45:00Hey Eric, love the work you do. I noticed recently that part of Ubaldo Jimenez's success comes from consistently having a very low HR/FB rate (2010 will be the third straight such year). Do you believe this is a fluke, and that this will eventually catch up to Ubaldo, or do you believe there's some skill there that we just can't measure yet? Do you know of other similar pitchers that challenge SIERA's assumption that HR/FB is (mostly) random? Thanks!
(Jeff P from NYC)
Thanks Jeff. This is something Matt and I actively discuss, and right now I'm leaning toward the idea that there is something there. For instance, Cliff Lee over the last three seasons has played for Cleveland, Philadelphia, Seattle and Texas, four very different stadiums. His HR/FB numbers have been as follows: 08-Cle: 5.1, 09-Cle: 5.8, 09-Phi: 8.0, 10-Sea: 4.0, 10-Tex:4.9. Even when on the Phillies the rate was less than the league averages, and they have been drastically less than the averages for three years running now. There is clearly something he is doing that is preventing home runs. What that is, I'm not positive, but he is a very good example due to playing for so many different teams the last few years. Now, that doesn't invalidate SIERA at all, but rather it's the sort of thing that Matt and I will be looking to somehow incorporate moving forward. (Eric Seidman)
2010-07-22 13:00:00For years, people have discredited hitters who hit at Coors field when it comes for MVP races. So, why doesn't Ubaldo Jimenez get extra credit for the Cy Young race for pitching half his games at Coors?
(Hansford from Fort Worth)
I don't think Ubaldo Jimenez needs any extra help in the Cy Young race this year. His Davenport Translated ERA this season is 2.61, which is mighty good. Of course, his SIERA is a much more pedestrian 3.55, but that doesn't apply park factors to the peripherals. (Tommy Bennett)
2010-05-05 13:00:00Marc, do you have any concerns about Ubaldo Jimenez holding up over the course of the season given the high pitch counts that Jim Tracy has been letting him run up? Is he someone to consider shipping out if you can get back a Verlander-type return?
(Aaron from YYZ)
Wasn't there a study a few years ago that said that 180 innings at Coors felt like 200 innings elsewhere because of the way the air was? I'm not *concerned* I guess, but if you can get someone of equal value or better for Ubaldo, it may be worth exploring. I'm much more of a softy when it comes to pitch counts (as long as their mechanics aren't changing at 110 or 120 pitches, I'm not that broken up about it) but the consistent chase of 120-130 or so for Ubaldo this early is a bit disconcerting.

Could it be possible that Jim Tracy didn't ride down from the heavens on a unicorn to manage the Rockies, and that he actually just took control of a really great collection of talent that started playing well like it should have? (Marc Normandin)
2010-04-27 13:00:00How well does Ubaldo Jimenez match up with Mr. Strasburg?
(andrew from Toronto)
The first thing to note is that jimenez is five years older, and was nowhere near as good (when he was 21) as Strasburg is now. Strasburg looks to throw 2-3mph harder (reaching, say, 100 rather than 98, whi9ch is still plenty fast) and already has control that Ubaldo did not develop until the last year or so. Jimenez was a highly regarded prospect and has done the right things since, hitting the most optimistic points on his curve. His advantage over Strasburg is that we know he can throw 200 innings and come back for more - we don't know that about Stephen yet. (Clay Davenport)
2009-10-13 14:00:00This question got kicked 'round a bit in the recent playoff round table, but I'd love to hear your answer. How much do you trust Ubaldo Jimenez's breakout year? How would he rank as a long-term commodity compared to younger, higher profile arms like B. Anderson, Hanson, Porcello, and the like?
(Jim Clancy from Exhibition Stadium)
I'm optimistic abou Jimenez, even with the environment counting against his chances. (The club gets it as far as fielding a quality defense, so he'll have that going for him.) While I think everyone prefers Hanson over everybody at this point, I think Jimenez deserves consideration. As impressive as Porcello's late performance was, I guess I want to see the strikeout rate come up a bit before I go wild for him. (Christina Kahrl)
2009-10-08 14:00:00In your analysis of the Phillies/Rockies series, you mentioned how the Phils Offense was not well suited to hit against the Rockies D. But how about the opposite match-up? The Rockies only played .500 ball against lefties this year and the Phils can throw three lefties at them (four games, maybe five depending on the schedule). Isn't this an advantage for Philly? Also, can you do anything about the annoying Outback commercial that keeps covering up the screen?
(jschmeagol from college park, md)
No, I can't, but I've complained about it myself. It's absurd.

I felt the two teams' rotations were fairly even, which may have been overrating Ubaldo Jimenez against this particular lineup. I also didn't think Jim Tracy would play Brad Hawpe over Ryan Spilborghs. Not that that was the only factor, but man, can you leave Spilborghs and Chris Iannetta on your bench if you're serious about beating a lefty?

Anyway, with the Rockies having lost the Jimenez start and not having de la Rosa, their situation isn't that great. (Joe Sheehan)
2009-09-24 14:00:00Buchholz or Ubaldo Jimenez over their careers?
(Ethan from Berkshire County)
Buchholz. The fact that we even have to ask is a testament to Jimenez and what he's done. (Joe Sheehan)
2009-08-25 13:00:00If Ubaldo Jimenez can get to 17 wins would you give him a chance at the Cy Young?
(Spilly from Denver, CO)
If in doing so he went Hershiser on the league, maybe. (Joe Sheehan)
2009-04-10 16:30:00Hey Christina, any thoughts on Ubaldo Jimenez and Franklin Morales so far this year? They've thrown a combined 13IP 8H 1ER 4BB 1HR 14K. Sample size + control problems. But those K numbers look pretty good.
(Jason from Devner)
You don't need me or even Kevin to tell you those guys are talented; it's just a good bit of news for the Rox that in the year Jeff Francis is out, those two might be squared away to join Aaron Cook and give the team a trio they can project playing key roles years into the future. (Christina Kahrl)
2009-02-03 13:00:00Are you as annoyed as I am by the annual flurry of articles that go something like this, "So and so really hit the weights in the offseason and is poised for a big year" nonsense? In any case, who are your breakout picks in the N.L.?
(jromero from Seattle)
I wouldn't say "annoyed," but I do tend to ignore them as a group. Everyone has a story in March.

NL breakouts: Lastings Milledge, James Loney, maybe Ubaldo Jimenez. (Joe Sheehan)
2008-01-28 13:00:00how good can Ubaldo Jimenez be in 08?
(tycobb from ga)
Really good, because the arm strength is there and a good second half is going to leave him with the requisite amount of confidence. But for Ubaldo, everything is going to be about fastball command. In analyzing Franklin Morales, Kevin Goldstein talked about Morales realizing he's better 93-95 than 96-98, a lesson I'm not sure Ubaldo has yet grasped. (Bryan Smith)

2009-10-12 15:00:00Phillies/Rockies Playoffs RoundtableRyan (Denver): Where do you guys think Ubaldo Jimenez ranks among NL starting pitchers?

Maybe I'll answer this time . . . On pure STUFF ALONE he really does rank with anyone out there. More consistent command and some refinements with his off-speed pitches will have him firmly in the discussion on pure performance as well.

My biggest question is the arm holding up. The Rockies have done wonders with cleaning up his mechanics without taking away his velo or tilt, but it's still not exactly easy for him. (Kevin Goldstein)
