2015-06-16 20:00:00 (link to chat) | If the Red Sox were characters on Game of Thrones, who would they be? thanks (Bill from Los Angeles) | This is super played out ...
... and as such, right in my wheelhouse. Xander Bogaerts: Jon Snow Mookie Betts: Danaerys Targaryen Ben Cherington: Ned (tried to do the right thing, will probably lose head) Wade Miley: Catelyn (doesn't do much but yell) Rick Porcello: Robb Stark (handsome, ineffective) Clay Buchholz: Sansa (WHAT EVEN ARE YOU?) Eduardo Rodriguez: Arya (so much potential) Brock Holt: Bran (takes a lot of forms) Joe Kelly: Rickon (why do you exist?) Mike Napoli: Hodor (...yep) Christian Vazquez: Benjen Stark (plz come back) John Henry: Tywin (still calling the shots) Dustin Pedroia: Tyrion (most watchable/resourceful) Larry Lucchino: Cersei (...)

Yoan Moncada: Young Griff Rusney Castillo: Patchface (Ben Carsley) |
2014-10-31 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Tucker, how productive do you think Nick Williams can be at the MLB level, and is Jorge Alfaro the real McCoy behind the dish?
Thanks! (chopper from indy) | Nick Williams is likely not hitting .300, because he swings at basically everything. I am a known advocate of Williams, but that does not mean that I endorse his complete lack of approach at the plate. However, it's been a long year and I've seen him plenty this season. I'm not worried about the AFL mess he has currently. I think Williams can be a .260-270 20HR type in his peak, but the risk is still evident. Can he cut back on the swing-and-miss enough? Swinging at a ball in the dirt or 2 feet outside will cause issues.
Jorge Alfaro is an enigma. Athletic for a catcher and runs like a bulldozer, but his game is often too violent. I remain pessimistic about his chances to consistently player behind the plate, but what if he is a Mike Napoli type? I think the bat is fine, and he will need to just lessen the aggressiveness and violence in his swing. He gets those hips turning and sometimes he flies all over the place and loses his swing mechanics. (Tucker Blair) |
2014-01-29 19:00:00 (link to chat) | Do you think experts are trying to play it safe with Jose Abreu? I know Cuban pitchers aren't near the level of MLB pitchers, but Abreu put up absolutely insane numbers even when compared to Puig and Cespedes. I'd like to think his upside is massive. (Brandon from Florida) | I think they're playing it safe because 1B is such a deep position that there's no need to assume so much risk. I've read some pretty conservative expectations for Abreu, so I get where you're coming from, but are we THAT convinced he'll be measurably better than Brandon Moss or Mike Napoli next year? That would only make him a fringe top-20 at first base. (Ben Carsley) |
2014-01-29 19:00:00 (link to chat) | Who would you rather have in a redraft league, all things being equal: Michael Cuddyer or Mike Napoli? (Guancous from Washington DC) | Napoli. Cuddyer ain't gonna hit for a .382 BABIP again, and I think Nap has another 30- homer campaign left in that bat. (Ben Carsley) |
2014-02-03 13:00:00 (link to chat) | I can keep one of the following three first basemen (10 team h2h 5x5). Where is the value? Matt Adams at the cost of a 12th round pick? Freddie Freeman at the cost of 7th? Mike Napoli at the cost of a 12th? (Andrew from Canada) | Freeman at the cost of a 7th rounder is very good value in my mind. I would go there. (Mauricio Rubio) |
2013-10-28 18:00:00 (link to chat) | Where do you see James Loney landing? (yancyeaton from Fort Myers, FL) | Who needs a first baseman would be the question. Tampa Bay is the only team that has been linked to him, but maybe Loney leaves if he can squeeze a two-year deal out of someone. It's a fairly thin market, though, as a lot of teams already have a first baseman tied up to a deal. The White Sox could be players if they don't resign Paul Konerko, and the same could be said for Boston if Mike Napoli walks. Loney is probably a one-year stopgap at best, and it's entirely possible he goes the route of Russell Branyan and doesn't find a taker this winter despite the incredibly strong campaign in 2013. (Mike Gianella) |
2013-10-24 13:00:00 (link to chat) | What do the Pirates do about their first base situation going into next season? (Dave from Pittsburgh) | It's an interesting question. They could bring back Morneau, but it really seems like he's not ever going to be Justin Morneau again. A first baseman that slugged .411 with a 323 on-base just doesn't seem like a good answer. Mike Napoli may be available if the Red Sox don't lock him up between the end of the Series and the start of free agency, but aside from him, I think the Pirates might have to see what they can find on the trade market. Or, sign Morneau, cross your fingers, and power up at other positions. (Matthew Kory) |
2013-02-15 12:00:00 (link to chat) | Long time Tower of Power listene. Seems like a lot of VA love. Mid Round Risks- What are your thoughts on Utley, Carl Crawford and Mike Napoli?
Do you see any of these guys surprising by putting up early round talent? (Jason from Charlottesville, VA) | thanks for the patronage..especially from my birth state (Fredericksburg). I like Crawford the best; anything over 450 PA for Utley or Napoli has to be considered a bonus. I don't see any of the producing top 75 value. (Jason Collette) |
2013-02-14 13:00:00 (link to chat) | I love using BP's Player Forecast Manager as a major tool during a draft. In your opinion give a couple of players that PECOTA is too Bullish on as well as too Bearish. (rupertoooo from Lorton, VA) | I like Aaron Hill, Maro Estrada, Doug Fister, and Carlos Santana a bit more. Not quite as high on Anthony Rizzo and I'm nervous about Mike Napoli's hips. Like Shakira's, they don't lie except unlike Shakira's, I don't like what they're saying. (Paul Sporer) |
2013-02-14 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Hi Paul, thanks for the chat. For a deep keeper lg that's 20*35 with options to play two catchers, who do you decide to keep for $2: Hanigan or Iannetta? Or Neither? It's yet keeper dealine and only FA in the pool Mike Napoli probably won't last until my pick (late first round.) (Grout from SD) | You're welcome. Thanks for joining. Iannetta is my choice there. Hanigan is a much better *real* player. (Paul Sporer) |
2013-02-12 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Favorite player that is not a marquee name or highly regarded ? For me its Taylor Pastornicky, I like his approach and flare he plays with (Derek from Georgia) | I used to really like Mark Bellhorn for the same reasons. He seemed like a guy who was squeezing the most out of his meager (compared to other major leaguers) skills. Now? I'm a big Hit It Over The Wall guy so I'm really looking forward to seeing Mike Napoli in Fenway. Power and patience are my favorite skills and that's Napoli summed up. (Matthew Kory) |
2012-12-28 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Hey Geoff,
What is wrong with Mike Napoli? Does he not like Fenway Park as much as they like him? (Steve G. from STL) | Hi Steve, thanks for the question. From what I understand, questions about Napoli's hip condition have kept things on hold. Those questions scared the Mariners away, clearing a path for the Red Sox, who understandably are being careful. Stay tuned. (Geoff Young) |
2012-07-30 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Can you rank the top 5 catchers for the rest of 2012 in an obp league? (Jim from NY) | 1- Buster Posey
2- Joe Mauer 3- Yadier Molina 4- Brian McCann 5- Mike Napoli Miguel Montero and Matt Wieters could easily jump into the mix. (Josh Shepardson) |
2012-03-26 13:00:00 (link to chat) | What was your first reaction when you heard about the Vernon Wells trade? (Erix from Toronto) | First reaction was that they would be getting something else back, like Kyle Drabek or $50 million or both, and it just hadn't been announced. Second reaction was that Vernon Wells and Juan Rivera were awfully close to the same player. Third was like that feeling you get when some drugged-out celebrity dies, that sorrowful realization that they finally reached that tragic end that we all worried about but watched happen without doing anything to stop it. They had traded Mike Napoli for nothing. For less than nothing. For, basically, a $50 million loss. That night was more exciting to me, in a way, than the morning the Angels signed Pujols and Wilson. Staring into the abyss and all that. (Sam Miller) |
2012-03-26 13:00:00 (link to chat) | You have to chose to either save Russell Branyan or Mike Napoli from an old timey movie villain. And you have 30 seconds to decide. Go! (J. Shepard from California) | I really need to see this visually to decide. Go! (Sam Miller) |
2012-02-20 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Either, Neither, or Both: B. Hawpe / C. Jackson make an impact for Rangers this year? (Oh Snap from A Mountain) | Jackson has hit .232/.312/.323 over the past three seasons. Any impact he made will be classified as "dead cat bounce." Hawpe hit .239/.324/.389 over the past two seasons, but part of that was in Petco, and he always had more power than Jackson, but I'd be hard-pressed to call his potential contribution "impact" even if he does well, barring significant injuries to either Mitch Moreland, Mike Napoli, or Michael Young that would bring him significant playing time. (Jay Jaffe) |
2012-01-24 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Is it crazy to draft Carlos Santana in round 2-3? He gets more playing time than other catchers because he plays some 1B/DH for Cleveland. His AVG screams for a correction this year. Can easily do 30/100 if he continues his development. (PJ from Bronx) | Don't get me wrong, I like Santana, but that's definitely too early for him. You can say the same for Mike Napoli and he doesn't have to make good on upside... and I still wouldn't take Napoli that early. It's a bit more defensible in a deep two-catcher league, like an AL-only league, but I wouldn't jump the gun on him. (Derek Carty) |
2011-09-20 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Who will be your vote for the AL Manager of the Year? Also, will Mike Napoli be eligible for the ALDS after his kiss to the Angel dugout in the season's last game incites a brawl? :-) (jhardman from Apex, NC) | Good question. A few weeks ago I'd have said Terry Francona, but his stubborn refusal to move Lackey out of the rotation and stretch Aceves out is one of the main factors in the team's slide.
I think Jim Leyland might be a good choice given that you really have to squint to figure out how Detroit has gotten to the top of the AL Central given all of their injuries and roster mismatches. That's also a credit to Dave Dombrowski, whose acquisitions of Wilson Betemit and Doug Fister have really helped. (Jay Jaffe) |
2011-08-17 13:00:00 (link to chat) | I want you to defend the Vernon Wells trade right now. Take your best shot. (Steven from New Orleans) | He was pretty good the year before, Mike Napoli wasn't going to play anyway, and he was part of a concerted effort to vastly improve the outfield defense behind a flyball-oriented staff. And, somehow, in some magical accounting way that nobody understands, the money didn't matter. That's the best there is, and it's an awful, awful defense. (Sam Miller) |
2011-02-14 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Tommy, Marc has told us who some of the players he has special love for. Care to give us a few of yours? Thanks, Dan (DanDaMan from SeaCliff) | Hmm, let's say Mike Napoli, Angel Pagan, Jhoulys Chacin, Julio Teheran, and Shaun Marcum (Tommy Bennett) |
2009-10-20 14:00:00 (link to chat) | Scioscia has now pinch-hit for Mike Napoli twice, once with Sarge Jr. and last night with Maicer Izturis. Sure, Izturis got a sac-fly and eventually Mathis had the walk-off hit, but that still doesn't justify taking the bat out of Napoli's hands in either situation, especially for those two hitters. Why does Scioscia keep doing this? (ashitaka from long beach, ca) | The Izturis move actually *was* sensible. With one out and a runner on third, contact matters a lot, and with Chamberlain pitching and Izturis available, there was a good matchup to be had.
The repeated use of Matthews for Napoli is just wrong and should be stopped immediately. I can probably come up with degenerate cases where it makes sense, but most of those involve pitchers not in this series. (Joe Sheehan) |
2008-10-09 14:00:00 (link to chat) | What's your read on Mike Napoli? How does he not have a full time job? (Matt from SF, CA) | Napoli is a fine hitter but below average behind the dish, -8 FRAA here, and 11/63 (17%) in catching base stealers; I have no idea what pitchers think about throwing to him but maybe they don't love it. Let's remember that ex-catcher Scioscia's certainly got a point of view here too.
Meanwhile, Mathis was +7, while throwing out 26% by comparison. They're both young, they both have their merits (I don't think Mathis is as bad as we saw with the bat this year or Napoli as good), and so long as the Angels have a surplus that they don't need to turn into something else, they can afford to share the job while they sort out who's who. (Jay Jaffe) |
2008-05-22 13:00:00 (link to chat) | Will, What's your take on the Rays and Posey at #1? I see he hit another two homeruns last night, yet he isn't seen as someone who will hit more than 15? He's been incredible, is he slowly working his way into that catching fantasy dream of 20-25 Hr potential range? (Parker Posey from Filmlore) | My pal Drew has been irrationally high on him for a while, but it turns out he may be right. He's a premium defensive player that's been hitting well (and he's the Noles closer!) I think KG hits the nail on the head when he says that Posey is likely to be good, but Beckham's got a chance to be great. Teams -- well, the Rays -- will have to decide how much risk to take in search of the upside. From what I've heard, Posey's upside is being a league avg catcher with some power (15-20). That would look awful nice in the Rays roster. Who would that be today? (Pause as I run a quick stats search ... and listening to "Up!" by M83) Man, there's just no good comp. 2007 version of Yadi Molina without the defense and more power? Mike Napoli? Is that 1:1? (Will Carroll) |
2008-03-18 17:00:00 (link to chat) | Im not sure if a fantasy question is up your alley, but im in a 5x5 head to head 12 team mixed league and am lacking in pitching, i have offered Joe Nathan J.J. Hardy, and Joey Votto(1b and OF eligiable), along with either Khalil Greene or Mike Napoli (Soto is my starter) for Chris Young, Derek Jeter, and Kosuke Fukudome; would this deal be beneficial to me? (Keith from Naugatuck, CT) | It's been a long time since I played in a 5x5 league, but I guess I would have to see who you have at the positions you're giving up in order to be able to fully answer your question. It sounds OK, but I would have to know more.
Having said that, making deals in fantasy is part of the fun. All ofyou: Roll the dice! Get on the phone! Play Trader Lane in the privacy of your tool shed. You're there to have fun. (Jim Baker) |
