And on the flip side:
It’s harder to find laggards in Sentiment with more than 300 PA—depressed play usually means depressed playing time. Still, you could probably guess the big names: Giles, Ortiz, Cedeno, Ordonez, Renteria, Matsui, Upton (B.J.), Burrell, Atkins, Navarro. Guys who (as anyone is happy to tell you) are down to their last swings. If I had a rebuilding team, I would be scooping up these guys like souvenir cups (and at comparable prices).
I think it's funny because it's absolutely true.
Tango wrote that he feels the weights are a bit off, but I like the idea a lot.

I just like that we've got 3 on the way underperforming and 2 on the way overperforming (don't tell Zorilla).
I ran Zobrist's "true" OBP skill a few days ago
’Twas around .370. Which is pretty nice.

Its BS to give a 107 PA .391 OPS a 25% weight and a 2009 431 PA a 42% weight

.400/.450?
I can't help that I make some things look easier than they really are.

.350 OBP seems low
How bout we just say .400 OBP/.650 SLG and call it a day

Higher
True Talent Level of .1200 OPS, easily. KING KONG AIN’T GOT NOTHING ON ZOBOT.

Ya know
Tough to see how to divide it up. He is good at working with what he sees as his July OBP and 30+% LD indictate.

My favorite from Frenchy:
“That was a lot of fun. You just keep pounding balls into the gap. The one thing you don’t want to do is hit a home run. That’s a rally-killer.”
