If familiar with this series go ahead and skip to poll. If not
http://www.stlouiscardinalsteamshop.com/authentic-marcell-ozuna-jersey , please read on.This series of articles will run from now until shortly before opening day. The purpose is to crowd source the D-Backs fans of this website to get a sense of how they feel about the prospects of each individual player on the 40 man roster. For this exercise I will only be using rate (average) stats and poll the readers on their sense of direction for that player’s level of basic performance, regardless of playing time expectations.I’m not including defense and base running, so no WAR here, as that is playing time dependent. You will be given two poll options:The player will either exceed the projection or under perform the projection by 5% for hitters OPS or 10% for pitchers ERA/FIP.There is no middle option to vote on. (Otherwise the majority of votes would end up agreeing with the projection).What I am looking for is if you are forced to indicate your sense of direction for the player, is it well over or under the projection?Other Points of note:Projections are the average of Steamer and ZIPS projections.(Click through for original tables)The projections draw on 3 or 4 year samples, weighting most recent seasons the heaviest, but I’m just showing 2018 and career statsin mini table below for simplicityThe player’s name is high lighted with a link to the player’s Baseball-Reference page.Click on that to see more player history and detailAge is the 2019 player age.Polls will run until mid March, so if you miss a player,you can go to the story stream box on the front page andfind a player you might have missed .Please let us know in the comments section your thoughts behind your vote.

EDTShareTweetShareShareGame 3: Cleveland at TwinsJasen Vinlove-USA TODAY SportsFirst Pitch: 1:10 PM CDTTV: FSNORadio: TIBN Probable starters: Carlos Carrasco (CLE) vs Michael Pineda (MIN). The Twins lineup has been held in check by Kluber and Bauer so far, and it won’t get much easier for them today. Carrasco had a 3.38 ERA (2.94 FIP) and struck out 10.8 batters per 9 innings last year. The Cleveland rotation is stacked, pretty much. Their top 3 starters would be aces on a lot of teams. Meanwhile, Michael Pineda is making his first start since 2017, after having Tommy John surgery. In spring training he threw 20.1 innings (3.54 ERA), striking out 20 and walking 5. If Pineda can regain his pre-surgery form it would be a boon to the Twins starting rotation. Minnesota lineup: Max Kepler, RFJorge Polanco
