More Draft Prep • • • • • You could make the case that any player who doesn't live up to his draft position is a bust. That's a generally accepted definition of the term. But I feel like it's kind of a rebranding, right? 'Bust' to me connotes a true bottoming out, a fall so cataclysmic that it could potentially wreck your season. So here in Busts 2.0, I'm redirecting the focus to those most at risk of disaster and leaving the simple cases of a player being overdrafted. For the most part, anyway. I still have to come up with enough names to populate an entire column, after all. K 82 heart irregularity became the predominant storyline surrounding him last season, ultimately requiring offseason surgery, and it's certainly possible it impacted his performance. But if we put that big scary variable aside and assess him by what we actually can measure, he looks like a pitcher in sharp decline. First, there's the velocity, which did partly recover after barely brushing 90 mph at the start of the year and surely played a role in him salvaging his season after a disastrous April. But it didn't make it all the way back, and, it's worth noting, neither did Jansen, averaging 10.2 strikeouts per nine innings compared to 14.4 per nine in 2017. Sure, 10.2 K/9 is fine in a vacuum, but for a pitcher known for being a historically dominant closer, it's underwhelming and was also reflected in the swinging strike rate, which dipped about five percent. If a 1 mph difference in velocity (which is about what it ended up being) can make that much of a difference, imagine if his stuff continues to decline. Early radar readings have him in the high 80s this spring, which isn't a great sign. It'll get better from there, most likely, but will it get good enough to make him the pitcher he was from May through September? Because it looks to me like the line between that one and the one he was last April is razor thin. AB 573 The case could be made that, a prolific fly-ball hitter who has spent most of his career in the wrong park for fly-ball hitters, is in line for career-best numbers now that he's in Milwaukee. Except that we already saw that movie for the final one-third of last season and he actually ended up with a worse slugging percentage and home run rate than with the Royals. OK, so no guarantees, but it was small sample, right? Here's the bigger problem: Any presumed improvements only matter to the extent he's capable of delivering on them, which is a fancy way of saying he needs to play. The signed him to play. Second base, that is — a position where he has yet to appear as professional, which includes his time in the minors, and one where it's hard to imagine him being halfway decent given that his range ratings the past two years at third base, a less range-dependent position, have left something to be desired. So yeah, maybe the Brewers will stick him at second base to start out, but do they keep him there from the seventh inning on? Do they start him six times a week? I have my doubts. Realistically, I see him getting no more than two-thirds of the workload there, and while he may steal occasional starts from at third base, there's a reason the Brewers are flipping the scrip and playing Moustakas out of position this time. Quite simply, his bat is too valuable to remove as often as they had to down the stretch last year. Because he was playing second base. Makes you think. And his near-certain 50 stolen bases are going even later? OK, well, maybe it isn't a total steals play. But what else could it be? Middle infield isn't weak anymore, especially shortstop. It's mostly theoretical at this point. Sab tv download. Yeah, Rosario hit.284 over the final two months last season, but with a suspicious.335 BABIP and an insignificant.731 OPS. Plus, his fly-ball rate actually cratered to below 25 percent during that time, so it's not like we should have great hopes of a power surge. This one looks like a classic case of putting the cart before the horse for a former top prospect. Yeah, he might contribute in stolen bases, but there's little evidence of him helping in any other way.
