BP Chats

Date	Question	Answer
2012-01-12 13:00:00	Based upon your analysis, which pitchers would say are going to breakout this season and outperform their current projections/draft position? PS: Snow in Kansas... (LoyalRoyal from Kansas)	I think I mentioned Fautino de los Santos in my last chat. I've been a big fan of his, though he is a gamble with control. A safer pick, but less under the radar is Kenley Jansen. I dunno, I'm bad at off-the-cuff recommendations like this. I'm better when I put in preparation by poring over lists. I found that out the hard way last year in my fantasy auction. I had a busy spring and didn't get much prep work, and my team was mediocre as a result. The previous few years when I had done dedicated prep work getting familiar with all the players on every roster, I did much better. (Mike Fast)
2011-09-26 13:00:00	Based on pure stuff/dominance/command (whatever strikes you), which pitchers are you most looking forward to watching this postseason? (Lucas Apostoleris from Amherst, MA)	Kenley Jansen is the guy that has piqued my interest most recently, but I'll have all offseason to look at him, I suppose. Of the pitchers who look playoff-bound, Craig Kimbrel is just amazing. I'm curious about Verlander's BABIP this year. Doug Fister is an interesting story. I've wanted to look at Alexi Ogando's switch to the rotation. Koji Uehara fascinates me, with his splitter and high flyball/popup rate. Josh Collmenter and Ian Kennedy are interesting. Of course there's no way I'll end up analyzing all or even most of those guys, but those are a few names who grab my attention. (Mike Fast)
2011-09-26 13:00:00	One last question and I know it may be early for this one... Any hitters or pitchers you like a breakout candidates next year? (Jquinton82 from NY)	Hm, I like the look of Jerome Williams in a small sample this year. I think Fister and McCarthy may be the real deal, though they're not exactly breakout candidates any more. I like Brian Duensing coming into this season, and still do. Dave Robertson and Kenley Jansen are two names that will surprise no one, but they could end up in bigger roles. In that vein, Greg Holland for the Royals, Vinnie Pestano for the Indians. And in the this-guys-stuff-intrigues-me-but-his-wildness-scares-me category, plus he has a cool name: Fautino de los Santos. (Mike Fast)
2011-08-11 13:00:00	Who are some current non-closers whom you could see closing at the beginning of next season? (Andrew from Las Vegas)	This is a planned article topic for the near future, but I haven't taken a super close look yet. Guys that come to mind include Bobby Parnell, Mike Adams, Luke Gregerson, Kenley Jansen, and Aaron Crow. (Derek Carty)
2009-11-17 14:00:00	Do you think Kenley Jansen will develop the command to be a late-innings guy? What's the ceiling? (Dillon from Pasadena, CA)	It's a project. He's an exciting arm with a ton of velocity, but it's still a project with no guarantees. (Kevin Goldstein)
