Cactus League Game 3 (split-squad): Reds @ Angels

in Spring Training
Email
PrintToday's split-squad game against the Angels will broadcast live on MLB Network and feature both 2010 MVP Joey Votto and 2010 Cy Young also-ran Jered Weaver, so that's the one that makes the marquee. Johnny Cueto, who will go on to finish off a sweep of the Brewers on April 3, has Philippe Valiquette, Logan Ondrusek, Scott Carroll and Jerry Gil lined up to pitch behind him.
But that's only half the story: real, live Reds players will also be squaring off at 3:05 EST against the Oakland A's at Phoenix Municipal Stadium. Mike Leake leads they way in the B-squad game against Gio Gonzalez, for which you'll get Gameday and like it. He'll be followed by Jordan Smith, Jared Burton, Carlos Fisher, Matt Klinker, Jeremy Horst and Donnie Joseph (not necessarily in that order). Jamie Ramsey, possibly others, will be tweeting from Phoenix also.
Starters and secondary players have been distributed pretty evenly among both squads. David Sappelt will be leading off against the Angels, which (if anything) might mean Dusty wants to see more of him. The diminutive outfielder is an early storyline in camp, getting off to a hot start after a torrid 2010. Despite his success, Sappelt doesn't have the power traditionally associated with left field - though he can hit in the gaps and leg out some triples. With only 115 PAs above AA, no room on the 40-man and competition from Chris Heisey and Jeremy Hermida for a bench-heavy 5th OF spot, Sappelt seems destined for Louisville. But he could find his way into the big leagues sometime this year.
A lot of bad stuff happened during yesterday's game, including shaky pitching performances from pretty much everyone and a 5:0 error to run-scored ratio. But this early in Spring training, the only thing that really concerns me is injuries - of which there were none. Second to that, perhaps, is bad pitching performances by MLB regulars. The pitchers are expected to be ahead of the hitters, while established pitchers are expected to be facing inferior competition. Struggles by Nick Masset, and Aroldis Chapman were a little bit off-putting. In the case of Chapman, his three walks in one inning - and only 7 strikes in 19 pitches - are worrisome inasmuch as they are a continuation of his control problems from last season. Still, I'm willing to throw out most anything as Small Sample or Slow Start.
Spring fun fact: Ryan Hanigan's history in the Reds' major league Spring camp stretches furthest back, as he logged one Spring Training AB back in 2003.

Do we know who is at which games other than starters?
And which pitchers are available today?
"People don't kill people. Burning oreo packages kill people."
Trick question!
Cueto and Leake are both going today! And I just found this:
Leake will be followed by a combination of Jordan Smith, Jared Burton, Carlos Fisher, Matt Klinker, Jeremy Horst and Donnie Joseph.
Cueto will be followed by some combination of Philippe Valiquette, Logan Ondrusek, Scott Carroll and Jerry Gil.
"People don't kill people. Burning oreo packages kill people."
Wow, as far as I can tell, no one else has that info about the pitching order

the most impressive thing I’ve seen so far is the Apellate Court in Sofia. But that’s because Sofia’s kind of a piece of shit town.
We’re pretty flexible, we’re just trying to hit all the Yugoslav Republics on our way up while getting maximum green space before my friend goes to the military and I go to New York City (yes, he is a far better human than I am).
Oh yeah, and we went to his grandfather’s village in the mountains of Bulgaria. I highly recommend anyone who knows where their geographical roots are to check them out. It was fun seeing all these old people get all wistful when hearing a name of a guy who left in 1950’s

A decent player, for sure, and by all counts a nice dude.
Just kinda…not that exciting.
"College actually kind of beat that out of me, making me more, well, of an asshole."
Yeah, he never had the "wow!" factor
But looking at his career, he was pretty good. It’s nice to know what you’re going to get out of a guy year in and year out. He was a fantasy baseball staple for me for several years.

Per MLBTR, he retires as the team's leader in games, hits, doubles, total bases, runs, extra base hits and RBI.

He’s easy to overrate because he hit for a high average but didn’t walk and played mediocre defense in a corner. Still, a perfectly cromulent career.

If Carp is out for a long time too, they'd be dumb not to try and trade Pujols right now.
And keep trying until they found a deal. As it is, I hope they keep him all year and still finish below the Astros.

of course, but if things get bad enough, I'm sure he'd go to a contender for half a season

its crazy thinking about, really
Pujols has a BREF 7.2 WAR last year
For the Cubs to put together a package that would equal that WAR, it would take:
Geovany Soto
Marlon Byrd
Ryan Dempster
and that’s obviously a huge lowball

It's hard to say
That was the model in 2009 – trying Dickerson, then Nix, then Gomes, but Dusty really stuck to Gomes in 2010. I think he’s committed to him as the primary starter, at least for a half-season.
I don’t understand the resistance to accepting his platoon splits. They’re pretty irrevocable at this point – and he seems to be a player that thrives in a more limited role, shielded from righties. You don’t have to play him 30% if you want his pop in the lineup, but giving him a bunch of starts against lefties guaranteed worse offensive production and much worse defense every time. Lewis, Hermida and Heisey would also be better options for a lot of those matchups.

yeah, this is beyond stupid.
Gomes isn’t T-Virus or CoPat, but it reeks of that.
Giving a guy the bulk of the time based on feelings about him rather than his real skills.
"Penus, stale beer, and day old hot dogs. Love it"--justin007000
Dusty is convinced the May Gomes is the real Gomes, and he was in a "slump for the rest of the season"
kinda like how Corey Patterson was just 10 good at bats away from breaking out of his 5 year slump.
"If you have selfish ignorant citizens you're gonna get selfish ignorant leaders."-George Carlin

I just don't get it.
This is a pretty cut and dry issue. Playing Gomes the majority of the time will hurt the team, and hurt the offensive output. And I don’t think it would hurt Gomes’ feelings if he sat against more righties. If this is true, it’s absolutely foolish.
Joey Votto on Colin Cowherd: "I don’t know who he is"
Gomes is good vs LHP
and turrible vs RHP.
i seriously think i’d rather have Hermida in LF than Gomes.
"Yahan Sentona's strikeouts are way down this year" Jake Liscow
Right
That’s what I’m saying. I’m sure Gomes knows he crushes lefties and struggles with righties. I don’t think it’d bother him THAT much if he sat against more righties
Joey Votto on Colin Cowherd: "I don’t know who he is"
As a matter of fact
It wouldn’t bother him at all.
But if you read all of Dusty’s quotes, it doesn’t seem that egregious (which is pretty typical for when Dusty talks. It seems to me we often take one thing out of context and ignore the larger point with him. Also, he often says one thing and does another)
It just seems like it won’t be a strict platoon. Like, if there’s a righty who throws almost all fastballs, I could see Gomes starting against him, or if there is a team with a lot of righties who pull the ball, Lewis might start, etc. That’s the kind of thing Dusty seems to pay a lot of attention to. I could see it being 60/40 in favor of Gomes, which isn’t ideal, but isn’t devastating.
Also, Dusty gave himself an out by saying, basically, that if Jonny is sucking he might not play much. I’ll wait to worry about this.
"Penus, stale beer, and day old hot dogs. Love it"--justin007000
I suppose it could be worse
I just don’t really see what there is to lose by not using a pretty strict platoon, even if they do what you say with fastball-heavy righties, etc.
Joey Votto on Colin Cowherd: "I don’t know who he is"
Not sure what "most of the time means"
but I kinda expected Gomes to get at least 50% of starts anyway.
But at a certain point, why even sign someone like Lewis to guaranteed money?

There were several problems with how the jurors handled the evidence and outside sources though.
In addition:
No motive submitted.
No evidence of a struggle.
Acceptable alternative theory provided by the defense.
All of these three should equate to enough doubt for a reasonable person to conclude that the prosecution did not meet its burden.

CHI gets Pujols, Janish and Coco
that’s fairly good!
"Yahan Sentona's strikeouts are way down this year" Jake Liscow
Alonso, Meso, and Maloney isn't nearly enough for Pujols
"Penus, stale beer, and day old hot dogs. Love it"--justin007000
maybe not
but who is going to offer much better?
the Cards “may” need a SP, fast. Meso and Alonso are Top 50 Minor League prospects, according to MLB Network.
That sure beats one draft pick when someone signs Albert as a free agent.

If no one offers much better, they won't trade him.
And FWIW, it’ll be two picks.

It's the sexism, plus
it’s the feeling that an uninvolved bystander should feel free to tell an injured player what to do. The combination annoys the hell out of me.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
If he couldn't even touch his foot down, this sounds a lot more serious than a hammy "strain"
I literally tore the muscle off of the tendon and I still finished my workout that day and ignored the pain for months until I finally went to the doctor when it wasn’t healing. I admit to being a little psycho about exercise, but I was still was physically capable of running at full speed with some stride modifications.
Obviously Carpenter isn’t going to risk making it worse like I did, but it sounds worse than a mild sprain.
Finally, if you will permit me, I'd like to make a comment which in my mind, is indicative, perhaps, of the greater significance of football and sports emphasis in general in this country, and that is, I thank God I was warring on the gridirons of the Midwest and not on the battlefields of Europe.

Well then, it's not a very good measure of defense.
If Orlando Cabrera is a good defensive shortstop, then so is Derek Jeter.

they're both multiple world series champion shortstops

He had 5 errors in 416.1 innings at SS
OCab had 11 in 1030.2 innings.
His fielding percentage (.981) wasn’t far from OCab’s (.971), but right. I agree with obc2 here: comparing the two doesn’t make a lot of sense, since Janish made lots of plays that OCab couldn’t.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
more stats
just saying he made “lots” more plays doesnt make it so…
"Yahan Sentona's strikeouts are way down this year" Jake Liscow
Well, okay.
OCab made 0.16 putouts and 0.29 assists per inning
Janish: 0.21 putouts and 0.29 assists per inning
That’s a significant bump in putouts.

sounds to me like janish played on days ground ball pitchers pitched
while Tubby was saddled with playing with only flyball pitchers.
great effort from OCab to be that close
otherwise the assists would be out of whack
OCab will retire with more WAR than Janish. and more wins!

if people didn't see both of you at the same time
