| 2011-06-09 13:00:00 | Mike Morse - has he really turned into a 870-ish OPS hitter who can bat against righties? Other than this year's April slump, he's been doing this since the beginning of last year. Am I allowed to start believing in this? (Charlie from Bethesda, MD) | I very much doubt it lasts, and as much as he's propping up the lineup right now, I would be looking to see if someone was willing to overpay for that by the deadline.

| 2011-06-09 13:00:00 | Re: Mike Morse - it's now been 472 PAs of .867 OPS over two seasons. How much longer would he need? Or is it so far out of the realm of possibility because of his age? He's got a career OPS of .820, and 30% of those PAs came from his .718 age 23 season. (Charlie from Bethesda, MD) | Well, I like what he's done. He's hit .300/.352/.511 since that season you mention in 608 scattered PAs. He has real value given that he can move around the field and knock the ball. But his 39 walks/140 strikeouts makes me nervous about the inevitable cold streaks or bad BABIP stretch, because players of this model, be they Robinson Cano or Alfonso Soriano, when they go cold, they just contribute nothing. Put that together with his age and that he should be up for arb after the season and I think, "Go fish." (Steven Goldman) |
