If he can hit 40 Homeruns and pick it at third in the big leagues, I dont care if his OBP is .100

An OBP of .100 would be a serious drag on any offense. Although I'm sure you were just being funny anyway.Originally Posted by JayBruceFan
Maybe that is Dusty incognito ? ? ?
In other words, between these two lines, the latter is worth 1.8 times as much as the former?
A player who goes 30-105 with zero walks has a line of .295/.295/.300.
A player who goes 25-95 with 10 walks has a line of .263/.333/.263.

Sam Lecure started last night for Gigantes of the Dominican Winter League (same team Francisco is on). His line: 3 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 3 K
Wilkin Castillo went 1-for-3.
Juan Francisco with a HUGE night last night:
3 for 5, 2 HR, 2BB and 0K.... oh and 6 RBI.
2 homers AND 2 walks? Nice.
Wow. The two walks excite as much as the homers. Talk about being on fire, he's got five straight multi-hit games with four homers in that stretch. Oh, and he's walked four times in his last two games.
Overall, Francisco is hitting .333/.393/.667 - 1.060 OPS in 51 atbats.
Watch out....he's turning into one of those dreaded 3 true outcome hitters.
Whenever I read this thread title I can't help but think the thread is about which Reds prospects playing winter ball are catholics.
Are you saying a .350 OBP is worth a .630 SLG? That seems like a stretch.
I agree. The "confirmed" adjective seems to encourage future confirmands that they will play winter ball in sunny climates upon being confirmed.
Matt Maloney pitched a good game yesterday in the Venezuelan League:
5 IP, 5 H, 1 R, 0 BB, 6 K
Juan Francisco with another walk last night in a 2-4 night. He is now hitting .345/.410/.655 through 55 at bats with 5 HR, 5 BB and 13K.
Are any/all of these IBB's? If not that's a fairly encouraging sign to have 5 in the past 3 games. Even for a naysayer like me.
