That is 100% true. He has 98 percentile sprint speed and is an optionable Dylan Moore - Sam Haggerty - Jose C. type of guy that has options.D-train wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2024 7:06 pmVanessa Hudgen's future boyfriend! lolBig_Maple wrote: ↑Tue Jan 30, 2024 6:58 pmThis one is a head scratcher.

Have to admit I've never heard of this guy. With a -0.2 WAR, I don't image this is a headline deal.
Nice year in AAA with almost a .900 OPS and 43 SBs. Good depth piece....

Mariners acquire Jorge Polanco from the Twins!!!!!

Re: Mariners acquire Jorge Polanco from the Twins!!!!!
You're wrong from time to time like the rest of us. Eduardo, Joey Bats, etc.
Re: Mariners acquire Jorge Polanco from the Twins!!!!!
No doubt about that. Have never claimed to be infallible!
I say my opinions on many things, they don't ALL work out.
In the end I didn't think Rodriguez will be worth 4/$80M. We'll see how that turns out.

They had an open spot. Yep, he's played a lot of 2B in the minors.Pharmabro wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2024 3:25 amThat is 100% true.

Re: Mariners acquire Jorge Polanco from the Twins!!!!!
Yeah, but that wasn't really the subject. It was whether the Tigers were going to need pitching.

Really looking forward to those 37.5 HR's!
Re: Mariners acquire Jorge Polanco from the Twins!!!!!
It wasn't a prediction, it was a recap of what he did. It's like showing JRod's Baseball Reference Splits. It's not unlike people showing Dylan Moore's stats per 600 PA.
Re: Mariners acquire Jorge Polanco from the Twins!!!!!
Oh, I thought you said we had found our MOTO hitter because of it?
So, you're not saying he'll do that, you're just saying he deserves to bat third in the MOTO because he did it?
Re: Mariners acquire Jorge Polanco from the Twins!!!!!
I was just going by the Fangraphs lineup order, they could be wrong.
He did it, so he PROBABLY can be one of the MOTO bats in this lineup. I'm giving stats, like people giving stats about Dylan Moore speaking to his past production per 600 PA.
I'm not sure about putting JRod in the 3 slot either, with him having added pressure to drive in runs. Polanco is more of a veteran. If the team is slumping, and JRod is batting 3rd, he would be pressed to carry the team on his back.
Re: Mariners acquire Jorge Polanco from the Twins!!!!!
So we shouldn't count on more than the 26 HR per year that his previous three seasons actually suggest he's capable of then, despite your flawed analysis, got it.ice99 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 31, 2024 3:52 amI was just going by the Fangraphs lineup order, they could be wrong.

That's 20 HR in T-Mobile as his Home park. A 6 batter.
