That trade value going up and up.

I hope they keep him

 

[tzill]

Doval is 18 for 22 in save opportunities, that isn't too bad is it? Pretty sure they won a couple of those blown ones too

82%?

Absolute minimum acceptability for a closer. Usually you want 85%+

Now he's 19 for 23 so 83%!

 

[tzill]

He's a valuable player don't know why everyone wants him gone.

I want him traded because we can get real talent back for him and get his salary off the books. In addition, it opens up 3b.

Opens it up for an inferior player. I hope he stays, defense matters with this team, defense and pitching. And doesn't he lead the team in home runs?

Trade Snell for sure, and Conforto. Chapman is a keeper. I don't give a shit about their payroll.

Looking at all closers with at least 18 saves:

Average save pct: 89%
Number of closers in sample: 17
Doval: 83%
Rank (of 17): 15

He's been mediocre.

For sure he has been, I don't want to give up on that guy's stuff though.

I don't give a crap about their MONEY, but I care about the budget. Clear his salary.

Doesn't matter, they won't trade him. They won't trade Snell. They can't trade Soler.

Offseason is phuked.

Fuck them and their 'budget', spend the money it takes to win

I'm almost 100% certain they will trade Snell

Funny, that's just about the most dominant start I think I've ever seen. And I was at Cain's perfect game.

It's gotta be up there. Easily the best start of Snell's career, and one of the best in SF Giants history. Perfect timing going into the deadline

VR and Babe for Game 2. Yaz moves up to the 2 slot.

Didn’t Snell have a perfect game last start or the start before that for 5-6 innings?

Maybe. 15 strikeouts is the real deal, never been done in 6 innings.

Man Chapman is so fun to watch play 3rd

Isn’t this close to his yearly output?

Uh, wut?

 

[sf1giantfan]

Uh, wut?

Chapman’s numbers

 

[msgkings322]

Chapman’s numbers

No I don't believe he has had a full year of production yet

 

[msgkings322]

Yaz has been hitting great lately too

All of this is too little too late...Soler, Chapman, Yaz, Snell, if these guys were producing earlier we're probably in a wild card spot

Oops wrong thread

 

[sf1giantfan]

No I don't believe he has had a full year of production yet

Not for the full year but at this stage of the year his numbers seem to be similar. I might be off by quite a bit.
