    Projecting Janish

    There has been some spirited debate in the Jose Reyes thread about how much production we should expect from Janish given the full-time gig. My position is possibly the most optimistic of anybody's I've seen. But I'm curious just how out of line I am with the RedsZone consensus.

    So, given the full-time job and assuming he keeps it (140+ games, 600+ PA), what level of production should we expect from Janish. No explanation is needed, but certainly feel free...
    Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

    Ditto.. Maybe slightly higher average. His D is what the Reds are in love with. I don't think they care about his offense. I do on the other hand. When Stubbs was near the mandoza line.. I thought Heisey should of gotten some starts. I think this club could potentially put together a package for a Jose Reyes. I think you solve issues at lead off and at SS.

    I would propose:

    CoCo Cordero, Homer Bailey, Logan Ondrusek, Zack Cozart & Todd Frazier to the Mets
    Jose Reyes, Oliver Perez, & Cash to the Reds

    Masset or Chapman become Closer
    Reyes Leadsoff and is your starting SS
    Perez is Long Relief or Situational

    Mets get a Closer and a Set-up man
    Bailey gives them a power arm to the rotation
    Mets also get a young group up the middle with Cozart and Frazier

    Everytime I see Janish on the field I get flashbacks of Darrel Chaney and Woody Woodward.

    We better be getting a payroll's worth of cash back from the Mets.
    Reyes is making $11M in 2011. Perez is due $12M in 2011. They are both set to become free agents after the 2011 season. And you're willing to give up young, cheap players like Bailey, Ondrusek, Cozart, and Frazier for that? No thanks.

    Just for the record, if he puts up those numbers offensively, and his career numbers defensively, Janish would be very close to a 2 WAR player.

    His career numbers defensively appear to be greatly skewed by a somewhat ridiculous 2009 measurement.

    I could say the same thing about his offensive numbers being skewed by abnormally low 2008, or even his 2009 numbers.

    Are they really abnormal though?

    I am comparing his 2009 UZR to recent other numbers put up by SSs in the league. His number was abnormal to the rest of the league, not his history.

    It's not abnormally low if it's in line with what he did in the minors.

    I also think his defense is a little overrated here on RZ. He's no Adam Everett.
