Dude was a .250 hitter for 3 seasons, with an OBP of .300, SLG of .400 and OPS in the .600 range... I'm glad that something is clicking, and that the team saw something in him, and i'm very happy to be very wrong about him if this new Jake is the real Jake. But it's not like he didn't legit suck for a lengthy bit.


I'm sitting here miserable from a ribeye coma but I'm still pretty sure .300 + .400 = .700. And he's closer to a .700 OPS for his career than .600

Hell, I predicted Jake to hit around .250 with 25 HRs and thought it would be an outstanding season for him. He'll probably finish closer to .250 than .300, but I wouldn't mind seeing his average stay up where it is.

If he had a SLG of 400 and an OBP of 300 his OPS should have been right around 700 by my rudimentary calculations
Yeah, my eyeball averaging was very bad and I didn't add that up well. I was just trying to visually exclude 2024 and failed miserablly. Should be ,700 OPS not .600.

That quite the prediction for a guy who didn't have 20 career HRs and wasn't going to be an everyday player.

I wonder if we work on base running during the spring.

Does Altuve realize he's not contractually obligated to TOOTBLAN every game

I had faith. And it might have been 20 HRs. Someone can search my posts.

If he is a .250 hitter with 20 bombs and plays an elite CF, he's absolutely your starting CFer and a guy you are looking to keep around.

I personally don't consider it a tootblan when you're attempting to steal on 1st move off a LHP and are picked off.

He is, but he has 6, 1, and 10 (17 TOTAL) prior to 2024 which is kinda my point. I don't see people calling out .900 OPS Jake. It was the crappy Jake that wasn't good, maybe partially due to injury or youth or whatever...

I am really worried that the Chas treatment is just a prelude to the Captain Lou treatment upon his return.
