Alright let’s all calm down. Jackson Merrill would not approve

Everytime I see the title of this thread; I think if I open it someone will try to help me with my 401k and investment portfolio.

@Ericulous1_PSN Jackson Merrill needs to go diamond.

I still think its crazy that Senga didnt get one vote for RoY last year, but thats probably more because he was a veteran of Japan. Skenes is better than Senga and merril is slightly 'less good' than Carroll, but if the vote was had today I would suspect Skenes gets 25 or so first place votes and Jackson gets 5
A large part of Winn's WAR is tied to his defense, and thats the shakiest part of WAR by far. SS in particular can be really swayed by this. Ozzie Smith has a higher career WAR than Derek Jeter for example in 200 less games. Jeter's oWAR is more than double Ozzie's.

Skenes won't get it. Word is Pittsburgh is going to shut him down soon; since they're out of the 3rd WC race.

OBP is a better metric than BA. Slugging is a better statistic than RBI's. But... teams have metrics for everything now. There are also factors like, was the player battling through a nagging injury that wasn't in the media? How was home life (divorce, sick kids, deaths in the family). Some things are just weights and need to be accounted for in many cases.
-
Jackson Merrill is a diamond and the studio in San Diego gives him zero respect.
-
Totally agree that he needs to be a diamond, and also believe that he has done more than Skeenes to be rookie of the year

Royce Lewis sounds like a money management firm. Or law firm. Or better... Public Accountants.

@X-FREEZE-OFF-X_PSN I think that makes 6 game tying or go ahead HR in the 8th inning or later.
-
I'm all for his success, whatever he turns into. If he learns to hit LHP, he could be some player for the Padres.
I was hoping to take 3 of 4. If Lindor comes through with the bases loaded earlier, we may have won the series. -
A +1? Are you [censored] kidding me? Skenes, who was already a diamond gets an upgrade and Merrill gets a +1 to 83. What an absolute [censored] joke.
-
This guy might be the most overrated player in baseball right now
The guy barely has an OPS over .800 and cant hit lefties.
Hes good, but hes been a singles hitter who doesnt walk for 3 out of 5 months this year and has had two power streaks. He might not even the best NL rookie named jackson over the last 3 months
-
Singles hitter with 47 extra base hits? Sit down. He’s a rookie playing CF and he’s had 6 game tying or game winning HR in the 8th inning or later. Something no other player has done in a season. He’s catching up to Skenes in rookie of the year voting. He should absolutely be a diamond.
-
April slugging%: .360
may .361
July: .4124 HRs total in those 4 months.
His June and August were great though, yes.
-
@Teak2112_MLBTS There’s exactly 2 CF in the MLB with a higher OPS. Judge and Duran. Merrill is leading NL CFers and is higher than Doyle’s who is a diamond.
-
Doyle is faster and a better defender, and can hit both righties and lefties.
To be fair I dont think Doyle should be a diamond either necessarilyLooking at merrill's ratings they did his power vs righties dirty, but if he has another month like August he will be a diamond for sure. As it is he has played like a silver for the first two months of the year, was a diamond in June, a low gold in July and a diamond again in August
Skenes, on the other hand, has played like a diamond since game one
