How could the Twins let Cristian Guzman go?
Tell me about it!
According to the stats at Baseball Prospectus, Guzy is "worth" 11.2 runs BELOW replacement-level, making him the worst SS bat in the majors. And it's not even close. Seattle's Wilson Valdez at -5.8 is the next worst; and, hell, the M's knew going into the season that he was just a cheap stopgap to hold the spot until Jose Lopez is ready or Pokey Reese returns.
Meanwhile, Jason Bartlett's .244 EqA and 2.0 Runs Above Replacement-level after 6 weeks earned him a trip back to the minors. Now if only they would do the same to Rivas... Better yet, make a move that allows me to add Rivas to this tote board.
I just about exploded into a million pieces last year when the Yankees came to town and Jim Souhan wrote that the Twins had a difficult choice as to whether they should exercise their $5 million option on Guzman. Patrick Reusse was also trumpeting his play. I wrote back last September 20th that he was basically one of the worst hitting shortstops in the league and his defense (based on range factor and zone rating) was below average. All the talk that he was having a good year last year was just talk. No, make that stupid talk.
Now, he'd kill for last year's numbers and the Nationals must be wondering who slipped the LSD in their collective drink that caused them to think he was worth $17 million.
SBG,
I agree that the Strib coverage of Guzy last August was some of the more inane analysis in recent memory. Guzy finished the season with a .244 EqA and 12.9 RARP, which rated him 19th amongst MLB Shortstops, 10th in the AL. (Again, Bartlett had a .247 EqA when they sent him down, supposedly to work on his swing.)
Of course, now all the Strib writers talk like Guzy was never better than just OK--which makes one wonder: did they ever believe their own hype, or where were they taking their orders?
leslie,
Yes, I have been checking your blog. I was going to leave a comment yesterday, but didn't feel in the mood to register a new user ID with AOL. Thanks for reminding me of Buck Buck. I'll have to go look him up and add him to my board....
I'm not willing to say that they were taking orders from the Twins, but there is a certain sportswriter over there who may have influenced things a little.
I read Souhan on the Packer game on Christmas Eve that the Vikes frittered away. His take? Wow, what an exciting game. Sounds like something Grandpa Sports wanted written.
On WCCO, they're always making fun of old Sid. That would be funny if he were actually cracking the whip on everybody's backsides behind closed doors.
Hey, how about Monkeywrench in New York?
