|---|---|---|
| 2020-03-27 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Do you see Mize and Skubal both ending the 2020 season in the Tigers rotation? (Bubic Hair from In your soup) | Maybe, but I would not expect either Casey Mize or Tarik Skubal to debut in 2020, especially given the shortened season. Further, the Tigers will not be in contention and any promotion will start the service time clock. In short, it would not be a wise move to call either arm up in 2020, but it is still possible. (Jesse Roche) |
| 2020-03-27 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Who you got if you can only pick one...Spencer Howard or Tarik Skubal? (Different Alias from Same Guy) | Howard. His stuff is simply better and he likely arrives early in 2020, though I do really like Skubal. (Jesse Roche) |
| 2020-01-29 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Who do you like better, Tarik Skubal or Spencer Howard? (ab257 from CT) | Howard. I am intrigued by Skubal but the injury concerns are present in a long term sense. The stuff is really fun, though. (Craig Goldstein) |
| 2020-01-24 13:00:00 (link to chat) | In a 15 team dynasty league I took over for an owner who was sick of having a pretty solid team that couldn't compete with the top 3 super teams. How would you advise going about a rebuild? We have minor league rosters that can have up to 20 players but most only have half that. And only 2 drafts a year to procure prospects. Should I compete as best as possible knowing at best 4th place is my prize or start targeting Juan soto/Fernando tatis jr's and overpaying as well as kicking the tires for acquiring more draft picks? (spotted cow from Rockford ) | Rebuilding is tricky business in any league, especially one with super teams as there may be an extremely limited market for older, win-now pieces with most of the league also rebuilding. I took over a team in TDGX last offseason in a similar situation with 2 absolute super teams and most of the league rebuilding. I decided to push my competition window out by 2 years (2021) and moved win-now pieces for prospects/picks or young MLB pieces. My idea is to be flexible in such a rebuild and try to acquire talent and upgrade where you can, even if it means acquiring an old player if the price is right. For example, I acquired Joey Votto for Austin Hays then spun him for Tarik Skubal and Josiah Gray. Rebuilding takes WORK, but if you are an active trader and there is a market for it, you should begin by targeting a competition window in 2021 or later and move pieces with depreciating value in that time frame. (Jesse Roche) |
| 2019-11-15 13:00:00 (link to chat) | There are going to be guys in the Top 101 with pretty similar AA stats, at basically the same age, as Cristian Javier. I know nothing about scouting. What keeps him from joining their ranks? (Jim from Georgetown) | So I think there's two ways to approach this. On the one hand the line between backend 101 arm and Javier isn't that big in some ways. A little less size, a little less fastball, you have to squint a little harder to find average command. But that stuff adds up, and projecting all of those bumps (and yeah, he's not getting any taller) takes us past the bounds of our 75th percentile OFP. The K numbers are nice but they imply better stuff than is there at present, and an above-average curve will always rack up Ks in Double-A. It's nice to have in the majors too, but the stuff around that limits the upside some for Javier compared to oh say Tarik Skubal or Edward Cabrera. (Houston Astros Top 10 Chat) |
| 2019-08-26 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Rank the following for dynasty purposes: Shane Baz, Jhoan Duran, Jordan Balazovic, Tarik Skubal, Edward Cabrera (Ron from Wisconsin) | Skubal, Baz, Duran, Balazovic (Mark Barry) |
| 2019-08-26 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Tarik Skubal is en fuego, how do scouts only see him as a SP3-4? Do you see him as having more upside (Johnny from PA) | Maybe a tiny bit more? But I'm just admittedly scouting the statline, which is incredible. (Mark Barry) |
| 2019-08-16 12:00:00 (link to chat) | I just read on FanGraphs this morning that, for fantasy purposes, Tarik Skubal profiles as a SP1/2. He was lumped right in there with Mize and Manning. That's lofty praise. What kind of ceiling do you see here? What he's done across two MiLB levels this year has been nothing short of dominant. (Ben from Detroit) | Spring saw Skubal recently and saw more of a brutal multi-inning reliever. Given the injury track record, and lack of a complete arsenal, I think that's probably about right as a median outcome. (Jeffrey Paternostro) |
| 2019-08-08 15:00:00 (link to chat) | So uh... Tarik Skubal is something, huh? (Karl from Detroit) | He's pretty good! We finally caught him and Spring covered him quite nicely in this Monday's Ten Pack. (Craig Goldstein) |
| 2019-08-21 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Is the gap between Mize, Manning, and Tarik Skubal really all that big at this point? What Skubal has done this year across multiple levels has been absurd. (Steve from Tacoma) | Skubal still has question marks surrounding his secondary pitches, and he's a fly-ball pitcher who hasn't faced the juiced ball as of yet. The numbers are incredible. But until he finds success at Triple-A, I'm worried that he's more Ben Lively than Chris Sale. (JP Breen) |
| 2019-08-21 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Pumped to see you're chatting today, JP! Big fan of your writing and especially your chats. Thanks for taking the time out for us. Anyway... trade question for you. Tarik Skubal and Luis Medina or AJ Pollock in a dynasty league? I feel like it's the two pitchers by far, but curious of your opinion. (Yuri from Israel) | Yuri, you're too kind. Also, it's late in Israel right now! Thanks for staying up. I'd rather have Pollock, actually. He's a five-category contributor on an excellent team, if healthy, and Skubal/Medina are a pair of lottery tickets -- as is Pollock. I'd rather take the lottery ticket that is already in the big leagues and has shown it at the highest level. (JP Breen) |
| 2019-07-17 13:00:00 (link to chat) | What are your thoughts on Tarik Skubal? The k rates certainly catch the eye. (Marco from queens, ny) | He's someone we're excited to get our eyes on in the second half of the season, thanks to his promotion. Unfortunately didn't catch him prior. (Craig Goldstein) |
| 2019-07-11 23:00:00 (link to chat) | I’m curious about the ceiling of two pop-up guys who play different positions, Cal Raleigh and Tarik Skubal. Does Raleigh project as anything more than a regular? Is Skubal a SP 4-5 kind of guy or can he be more now? (Jeremy from NYC) | Raleigh's on some kinda run right now, bwoy. And what's crazy is that it kinda started right around his impressive display at the Cal League HR Derby. Jacob Bickman wrote up his performance that day here: https://www.baseballprospectus.com/news/article/50926/notes-from-the-field-the-california-league-all-star-game/
Power-hitting back-up/second-division type's the profile, but hey, power plays these days, so... Skubal's one of those guys we just haven't caught lately but very probably will in the next few weeks, so I'll leave him lingering for now. (Wilson Karaman) |
| 2019-06-26 13:00:00 (link to chat) | As always, there are surprising pitcher performances in A Ball. Yerry Rodriguez, Cody Bolton, Joe Ryan, Tarik Skubal, Aaron Ashby and Joey Cantillo come to mind. Have you identified any as real steps forward? Any as a mirage? It's a great outcome for the team for them to now project as back of the rotation guys, but do any project as more? Thanks! (Ryan from MD) | I'm buying a bit on Bolton who we've talked about in recent chats (and was mentioned in a What Scouts Are Saying earlier this season), Skubal, and Ashby as discussed above. Less so on Cantillo and Ryan. I have to dig in on Rodriguez further. (Craig Goldstein) |
