Average FB exit velo of 91. Still not a lot of power there. He'll help his ISO with getting some triples, but he's probably still an average power guy at best for the next few years.

Is Eugenio Suarez an above - average player moving forward? 115 wRC+ with decent defense at third?
Dave Cameron

Defense is way better than decent now.
Yeah, he's a good piece.

People say that even the worst manager can’t lose too many games. Is that true? Is a guy like Matheny really only losing a game or two more than the Maddons and Franconas of baseball?
Dave Cameron

Yeah, because there's more to managing than strategy.
You could argue that a guy like Matt Williams, who all the players openly hated, could have been worse than a few wins negative.
But just in terms of pitching changes and setting line-ups? It's not going to be a huge gap.

Speaking of Suarez, Reds have Nick Senzel coming up to take over 3B. Does that mean Suarez position is changed, or he is traded for pitching?
Dave Cameron

Move Senzel back to 2B.
He played there some in college, I believe.
Peraza isn't good.

Do you think Luke Weaver is proving a lot of prospect evaluators wrong?  He's looking like a solid #2 starter

Fastball was probably underrated coming up, as it's a swing and miss pitch. He's not this good, but yeah, I'd call him one of the best young arms in the game.

Alright, that's going to do it for me today. Thanks for hanging out, everyone.
We'll have our final regular season chat next Wednesday.
Then, Wild Card live blogs in two weeks. Should be fun.
