Summary
Segment 1 and 2 – Reviewing the divisional playoff series
1. Besides the Phillies vs. the Braves, I thought the playoffs were boring. Your thoughts?
2. Why were there so many off days? The Dodgers vs. D-Backs had two off days?
3. Rangers sweep the Orioles 3-0
a. John Means was not available as his elbow was barking. Does this give you pause at the Draft table?
b. Evan Carter played great in September and continues to look good in the playoffs. He hit .429 with a home run. He’s a _____________ outfielder for you next season?
c. Grayson Rodriguez – Yikes!
4. Astros beat the Twins 3-1
a. Royce Lewis had four home runs in the playoffs. He’s a _______________ 3B for you next season?
b. Jose Abreu had three home runs in the series. After his horrible start, he was better and finished with 90 RBI and 18 HR, but with a .237 BA and .296 OBP. Is he a middle infielder next season?
c. Christian Javier got the win, but walked five in five innings. He’s a ____________ starting pitcher for you next season?
5. The D-Back sweep the Dodgers 3-0
a. This one was shocking. Freeman and Betts went 1 for 21. How did this happen?
b. Carroll is hitting .417 with two home runs and two stolen bases in the postseason. How good can this kid be next season? HR, SB, and BA for 2024.
c. Was 2023 the last season for Clayton Kershaw?
6. The Phillies beat the Braves 3-1
a. I had a feeling that the Phillies might take this, but still, I’m surprised. The Braves have the best team in baseball. How did the Phillies do it?
b. Turner hit .500 with two home runs and four stolen bases. He’s finishing up exactly like he started the year in the WBC. Still a first-round pick?
c. Castellanos was the big star, though. Four home runs, and he hit .391. He’s a nice player that flies under the radar. However, he hit 29 home runs, and stole 11 bases with 106 RBIs. He also hit .272. He’s a ____________ outfielder for you.
d. What do the Braves have to do differently next year to go deeper into the playoffs? It’s the second year in a row that they’ve gotten bounced by the Phillies 3-1. They beat the Phillies 8 out of 13 games in the regular season.
