I think Blackmon and Soto go Diamond
Soto? Based on what? He has 26 ab, and yeah he has gotten off to a hot start since be reactivated from COVID list. I think he’s an 83 (might be wrong) but part of his problem is not offensive, he is a barely serviceable outfielder from a defensive standpoint, and he’s a left fielder. The one place in the field that you don’t have to be great to be good. And he does not perform well there. Believe it or not defense is just as important as offense. So I don’t see that kind of upgrade until he becomes a better defender.
Based on the fact that’s he a top 15-20 player in the game and should’ve been diamond from the beginning. Harper is not a great defender either and he’s diamond... if we’re being honest Soto is the better player anyway
Yeah not sure how you come up with top 15-20. Maybe top 50. But It’s subjective. My top 15-20 will probably be different to yours. It doesn’t change the fact that until he becomes a more reliable defender he’s not getting that kind of upgrade. And Bryce Harper is not a negative WAR defender like Soto. Actually I believe Harper had a positive WAR last year. And I’m by no means a Harper fan. Just pointing out a fact.
Well that’s because Harper plays RF in Philly where you take 2 steps and you’re at the wall. When Harper was in Washington his dWar was a -3 compared to Sotos -0.7. The top 15 statement is subjective I guess but the guy is an MVP candidate with a ring on his finger and already 5 homers in the playoffs. At... age...21
I’m not in disagreement with you that he is a dynamic player from an offensive standpoint, he is as elite as they get but his extreme defensive problems at a position that is by Mlb standards the least difficult position to play really brings down his worth. If he became just a replacement level defender he would get my vote for diamond status. Until then he just doesn’t cut the mustard. Even Castellanos from the Reds has improved defensively to deserve his diamond rating. I guess we’ll see. I could be wrong.
You are wrong lol
Troll much? How bout defend your position!!!

Personally I love Soto, he’s as talented as they come. I’m not a Nationals fan either. I think in 3 years the best player in the game discussion will be between 3 guys, Soto/Acuna/Tatis. And out of those 3 Soto is already miles ahead in terms of accomplishments and he’s the second youngest out of the 3. Soto is an otherworldly talent IMO

Another Soto homer

Yeah he’s definitely a star I just don’t think he’s as good as those 3.

They said during the stream last week that if Soto had a good week he’d go diamond..... Pick your battles dude.

man ok, hes going under the radar with actual good performances, it wouldnt surprise me if he made the 81 to 85 jump because sds has a hard on for that this year. so i am with you NOLA TO DIAMOND, what are your thoughts on CORREA TO DIAMOND?

I agree on Correa. Diamond fielding Diamond hitter gold overall. I grabbed a few to flip in anticipation.

I have about 30 Sotos that I bought into back when I heard the season was coming back. Wish I would’ve invested more but at least those 30 will bring me a big profit

You could sell now and make a big profit. He is basically going for diamond price now.

I'd like to see Brandon "WOW" Lowe make the jump from Bronze 78 to Gold 80. Lowe's still whiffing enough to keep his VIS attribute pretty low, but he's currently hitting .300, crushing LHP and becoming an XBH machine... clearly TB's most dangerous hitter besides Meadows. He should also gain OF eligibility by the end of Aug at his current pace (1/4 of his 16 starts were in -- OF, 3 LF & 1 RF).
-
Zac Gallen to 79-80 his Bb/9 is really holding his rating back an besides his first start he has walked 1 batter or less while pitching 6 innings twice an 7 innings once which should get a little stamina boost as well
-
Nola should be getting to diamond soon. His last 14 innings he’s given up two runs and struck out 22. Those were against the Yankees and Braves.
-
Diamond: Soto and Liam Hendriks
Gold: Bo Bichette and Jorge Soler -
Looks like I was exactly right
