Brendan Ryan
So whats everyones opion on the guy now? I am glad he’s getting playing time, I’m sorry that its at the injury expense of Izturis, but I’m glad to finally see him play more.

I love him
with more playing time he will become a better offensive player and I think he is just a ballplayer on defense

I love it!
Don’t know how the numbers crunch, but everytime I see him play he does something that makes me cheer. He’s fun to watch, and I think he could be the solution at short.

I'd like to see more of him
in general, but not just at the expense of Iz when Iz comes back. I think he should share time between SS and 2b and get his PA up that way. Iz has generally done us well, even as advertised (he wasn’t coming here on the heels of a hot bat, he came for the glove)

Yep, I pefer TSL at short
but playing him at 2B takes ABs away from AK, and that can’t be a bad thing

no doubt
iz2 looks very smooth in the field, much more so than ryan. nonetheless, i’m not sure he makes that more plays than ryan. this is case where your eyes may deceive you
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs, perhaps you haven't grasped the situation!

matty pretty much got my point, i want less AK and ryan to bounce between positions. Iz can’t play 2nd, so Iz takes his natural position and Ryan shifts over. No to Little AK at bats, win win

I need to see him play a little more...
I think offensively, what we saw at the end of last year is the ceiling. I just don’t see him putting up anything better than a .750-ish OPS/95 OPS+ in a good year. I haven’t seen a metric that rates his “D” all that highly, though.

a lot more power I'd say
especially with the signing of Wallace. Ryan is a lot more comfortable SS/2b as well, he’s not as fluid in the hot corner

Freese
from the Edmonds trade is warming up, but he’s not pure power and could use some seasoning. He’s inline for when Glaus’ contract finishes, but I don’t think he’ll project inline after ‘09 if Wallace is as advertised

I'm not 100% on his footwork
as a 3b, I tend to look more at the offense at first and I’ve followed that, but if he could handle the footwork, he would easily project an above average 2nd IMO.

he needs to fill out and command the plate to be a true 3rd baseman from an offensive point of view, but if he had a 2nd baseman defensive toolset, his numbers would look a lot better. They’re going to be average or average+ if he’s a third baseman though. IMO.

I don’t believe they are, and AFAIK he doesn’t have a game there yet. But I haven’t opened up the stats to double check, just from memory (so I could be wrong)

RZR says Ryan is better than Tulowitski
and much, much better than izturis. Dewan’s fielding bible stats say the same. Both will be hurt slightly by tonight though because of that ball in the first inning he was lined up out of position on.

For this season...
Yes, but, I mean…a) Tulo was injured for a stretch; b) Playing time considerations (look at the innings difference; and c) there is no way I will believe Brendan Ryan compares favorably, defensively, to Tulo

eyeballing it
Ryan’s RZR should fall to 52/58 or .896, unless some of the plays he made tonight were out-of-zone. That’ll put Tulo back on top, unless he had a bad night, but Ryan is still 50 points better than izturis.

if total chances at the position were to be comparable, would they fall closer inline?
not against Ryan and for Iz, just assumed you had the stats themselves open and could see where the TC numbers fall

what defensive metrics are you using for evaluation? on RZR ryan is #2 in in the MLB (behind bynum) for SS over 100 or more innings and has a perfect fielding percentage.

That reminds of the time...
and I could have made some of this up…but Edmonds pretended a well-hit fly ball was routine, let it go over his head and bounce off the wall, and then threw out the tagging runner at third, who was caught off guard by the whole thing.
Some or all of that could have been imagined…anyone?

Re: Duncan stealing
If you “could” bulldoze a 2nd baseman akin to you can a catcher (read: if a 2nd baseman traditionally blocked 2nd) and Duncan was stealing..
when the play was over, would you see a puddle?
His size and most 2nd baseman, if they went to block, that would be a scary as hell proposition.

and also why the royals should join the NL
They would play st louis, chicago, and colorado alot more. all would be a big draw in KC

They had their chance and blew it.
But, living in Chicago, I love the fact the Cards come up to Milwaukee.

AL said while they were waiting for the grounds crew to fix the field
that the royals had some big give away thing tonight as well & that helped it become a sell out

they have a really good coach
and decent pitching and a solid closer. they seem to at least have a gameplan this year as opposed to the past few years.
They’ve beaten some solid teams this year.

always told my dad
that I work to get money to purchase a baseball team…
he always said that it sucks that I’m a Cards fan then, because if the Royals don’t fix some shit, they’ll be a hell of a lot cheaper to buy in ten years:)

Hopefully Loop brings his A game tomorrow
We are in trouble though Brian Bannister is ridiculously good at home and during the day.

Marshall vs. Buehrle
I like our chance of staying at 3.5 at a minimum. But I fully expect to see Loop pitch a solid game tomorrow. He’s a gamer.

OT: Angels have no-hit the dodgers
and are losing! It’s the top of the 9th, and the angels are the visiting team. Jered Weaver started the game and threw 6 no-hit innings, but 2 errors and a sac fly in the same inning gave up a run. Jose Arredondo has also pitched two perfect innings.
If the Angels don’t score at least one run in their ninth, they’ll be no hit…
One out!

i don’t watch gameday very often, but saito’s consistency in both speed and break on his pitches looks very cool. fastballs and sliders and sliders both fall within 1MPH of 95 and 85 respectively and with 3” or 8” of break.
