2011 Cleveland Indians Lineup by The Book

by kanka 6 days ago 0 comments

Here's a matchup I noticed on Fangraphs that's more intriguing than I would've guessed: Norm Cash and Robin Yount. What do a left-handed 60's 1B and a right-handed 80's SS/CF have in common? They both have a 10+ WAR season, and like most players not named Ruth/Williams/Bonds/Gehrig/etc., it's the only time they came close to it in their careers. What makes this interesting is that Yount's '82 season is viewed as a Hall of Famer at the height of his powers, whereas Cash's '61 is viewed as a crazy, corked-bat fueled fluke by a player who really wasn't all that much, but looking at the numbers, they're closer than you'd think. Yount's career advantage is mainly due to debuting younger. Not that that doesn't count for something, it sure does, but it's interesting that a 10 WAR season is almost sure to look like a huge outlier no matter who you are. Link to all graphs is here. Also worth noting there is that both Yount and Cash had their huge seasons when they were 26.

Blue Jays, Angels swap Vernon Wells for Mike Napoli and Juan Rivera. I'm not kidding, either.

Diagnosing Carl Pavano through PFX analysis, Dave Allen notes: You can see that he is getting his slider low and away much more in 2010. This is where a pitcher wants his slider to end up, and a location that will induce lots of weak contact on the ground.
