2021 new target date competition window.

Even if you ignore that fact that he is probably in bottom ten worst OFers in the modern era, his OPS for a RF ranks only 23rd of 31. If the guy can't handle a move from RF to LF he sure as hell can't be a 1B. Bishop had a .878 OPS in Tacoma so it's not like he is another Broxton.

I would rather give Bishop a shot in CF next year in another throw away year and let Haniger stay in RF. The only viable place for Santana is DH but he has a .578 OPS there so that isn't off to a good start. And even with his slump I still like Farley over Santana as a hitter. I think Santana's recent benching is pretty definitive writing on the wall of his future with the team.

I dont think Santana DH'ing has much more to do with anything but his elbow.

He's entering his prime years as a power hitter. Guess we'll see.

If Fraley and Haniger can both play CF, why sell our lineup short with a 4th OF bat in the starting lineup.

I find it funny how the inflated numbers in the PCL as a whole show how meaningless the AAA numbers are, but for Braden Bishop, his were the real deal right?

Kid's another 4th OF with a good story.

Fraley/Haniger/Santana is our best OF.

How about this comparison:

Player A Age 25 2018 AAA stats
.283/.401/.487/.888

Player B Age 25 2019 AAA stats
.293/.378/.500/.878

Player A is the worst defensive OFer in the org and player B is the best defensive OFer in the org.

Out of curiosity, what is the league average OPS for 2018 compared to 2019?

Let's compare the average 2018 to 2019 then do your comparison.

Nobody knows what Bishop do as a hitter in the big leagues. Did anyone expect Nola to have a 900+ OPS or Murphy to hit 13 bombs as a back up catcher? 2020 is a throw away year as well. No reason not to give him at least two months to prove himself. Guessing he can top Santana's 0.4 WAR.

It's a lot higher this year by like 50 pts or something. MLB is currently up 33 pts from last season.

.763 to .835

Is that the AAA numbers> .763 to .835?>

2023

I think we could be competitive in 2021 but I don't see playoffs until 2022. With all of the available payroll we will have in 2022 there is no reason why we have to wait for 2023. Even our youngest good prospect JROD should be here by 2021. He could even be a Sept call up next season.

A velvet wrapped Whiskey says we dont see the playoffs till at least 2023
