The Forgotten Division - Your AL Central

Until someone makes another move, I'm tired of talking about the AL West and you can't turn on ESPN without hearing about the AL East. Or so I've heard from people who actually turn on ESPN.

Remember this time last year, when the Tigers and Indians were going to be battling it out for the AL Central crown? How in hindsight, it was clear they weren't but so few of us saw things as they really would be, with the Tigers starting out hopeless only to improve to mediocrity and the Indians starting out bad only to improve to so-so, while the White Sox and Twins out played expectations and easily out played Detroit and Cleveland.

So let's get it right this time. We don't know who will be surprisingly injured or who might get old overnight, part of the unpredictability that makes baseball so wonderful. Ly aggravating. So no excuses. You know how old people are, you know how injury prone they are. You know who can hit, who can pitch, who can field.

Don't forget the Royals, as they're in the division too and their darkest years may be behind them. Five teams, five spots. Who will be at top, who will be at the bottom, and which runners-up will be in the race down to the end? And how many wins will it take to win the AL Central anyway? Good luck, and no taksies-backsies because you're writing in "pen".

Twins

and 93 wins will take the division. White Sox will be last in the division. Royals will battle themselves to stay above .500, but will be 5-7 games under. Tigers and Indians have similar records, but Indians come in 2nd, at around 88-90 wins…

Indians -- they're good in alternate years. I like their moves -- Wood, Smith, Valbuena

Victor returns. LaPorta in for Francisco. Carmona rebounds.

Twins with Liriano coming back 2nd. White Sox fall back a bit without Vazquez (I know I know) and Floyd regressing. Konerko and Thome are a year older. AJ too. Jenks seems ready for a collapse. Also Quentin’s good, but wow!

The Tigers aren’t as bad as last year, but their pitching after Verlander is terrible. Bonderman’s return should help a little, but Galarraga isn’t as good as 2008.

I gotta pick the Royals last. They’re still a ways away from their glory days of Hosmer, Moustakas, Butler and Gordon. Aviles should regress. Jacobs will be bad. They should try Soria as a starter, but probably won’t.

Plus, the Indians will win the Central with their final upgrade,

when they deal Jhonny Peralta to Oakland for Mazzaro and Buck, helping the A’s to take the AL West with Peralta at SS (ready to shift over to 3B if Chavy breaks), Garret Anderson spelling Cunningham in the OF, and Monkeyball following the Nationals because they didn’t sign Garret!

But I think that going forward Buck > Peralta. And he’s cheaper. I think it’s an overpay.

Mazzaro and Baisley was my other thought.

a regressed aviles is still better than a tony pena jr., or whatever slop they gave 225 AB's to.

Aviles BABIP was high, but he’s hit well in the minors, so my guess is that he’ll be a .280 hitter with 10ish HR’s and a .340 OBP. If he actually does that, that’s a pretty decent SS if you ask me.

I really don’t think the Royals have a shot at winning the division unless EVERYTHING breaks exactly right for them (see the BtB post), but I do think they have a realistic shot of getting to .500 and not being last in the division.

Which makes one wonder - could Aviles be as good a SS target

as Furcal was. Sure, you’re buying high but at least you’re not buying injured. Aviles projects to be an average defensive SS and above average hitting SS, correct?

What would the Royals require in return? Maybe Mazzaro (I’ve traded him about 17 times now), and the dazzlingly amazing H-Rod, plus Petit or Pennington? Or might Buck or Cunningham be involved? Is there a win-win deal to be made here?

with Dayton Moore at the helm

and in light of that Mike Jacobs deal, I’m not so sure that Moore wouldn’t at least consider Crosby in a return offer. I don’t mean that he’s the center piece, or even a positive piece at all, just that he might take him on (I mean, come on, they played Tony Pena Jr. at short last year, and at one time employed the infamous Angel Beroa). I’m thinking that they’d love to get their hands on some pitching prospects and could use BoCro as the replacement SS, and maybe something along the lines of Mazzaro, BoCro, +1 more middling talent for Aviles could get it done.

I'd be interested on people's takes on what it would take

for the A’s to land Aviles in a win-win deal. Folks, your best proposals? I’ll go with Mazzaro, Petit or Pennington (their choice), and Outman.

Way, way too much

Aviles is the next Jeff Keppinger.

I’d give one mid-level prospect for him— a B- or C+ guy. That’s it.

Well he's not likely to be worth 44.1 RAR (Fangraphs) again

but he sure ain’t chopped liver, either. Maybe three people are too much, but maybe not. I would definitely consider a Mazzaro/BoCro Aviles swap for sure.

"I'm on hold for now"- Bobby Crosby

I'm with DyeLongJustice -

My proposal is too generous, but one mid-level prospect for someone who has proven, if nothing else, that he can have one great major league season? C’mon. He’s worth more than that. It’s hard to imagine Aviles not being an upgrade, in 2009, from Crosby – with more years of contract control if he plays well enough to stay.

Given the supply and demand of SSs right now and how good Aviles was last year, he can regress and still be valuable. He’s worth a good prospect, minimally, whether it’s Mazzaro or Simmons. And it seems to me as if swapping a non C/A starter for Aviles is a good deal for Oakland. I don’t know if the Royals would swap Aviles for Simmons straight up, but I sure would.

Everything about Aviles's track record says this is a complete fluke

Long, mediocre minor league experience? Check.
Lack of secondary hitting skills? Check.
Inflated, otherwise unexplainable BABIP? Check.
Questionable defense/team lacks confidence in ability? Check, check, check.

He’s a flash in the pan. You’ll thank me next year when he’s hitting .280/.320/.380 with below average defense.

For the record, I agree he's probably a flash in the pan

but I also think he may be more of a “Jeff Tam” type of flash in the pan who has a total of 2-3 good years before diving off a cliff into obscurity.

That line's pretty good. If he can manage a .700 OPS in Oakland and

defend like he did last year, he’s way better than Crosby.

by WaddellCanseco on Dec 30, 2008 9:30 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

I also don't see why one would predict

a .100 point drop in slugging pct. I looked up his minor league stats and while they were a bit up and down, mostly his slugging pct has suggested that whatever he hits it will come with good 2B/HR pop.

I totally agree that Aviles’ batting average will take a dive next year, but I would predict a line more like .280/.340/.420 with average defense. And I’d take that any day of the week – and I’d deal Simmons to get it.

He has shown no inclination whatsoever to draw that many walks

He has atrocious plate discipline.

Someone explain to me how he’s any better than Clint Barmes. (Apart from costing more because he just had a lucksack season, of course.)

Just to put this on a grounded footing here, his CHONE projection next year is .280/.317/.425. Park adjust that to Oakland and you’re probably looking at an OPS in the .710 range, maybe worse. Since I think Crosby is a better defender, you’re looking at a difference of a win, maybe 1.5 between them. Damned if I’m giving Simmons up for that.

i think aviles would be a 1.5-2 win upgrade on crosby

assuming his defense holds. i’d say thats kinda worth it to kick the tires on.

Options don't exactly abound

Furcal’s a way better player, but is Aviles a way bigger risk at $400K on a year-to-year deal than Furcal would have been at $36-$40million on a four-year deal?

Aviles of 2008 was a 3.3 win upgrade on Crosby according to the

new awesome Fangraphs chart. A regression to 2 WAC is pretty safe.

twins will fall back as they won't have that rediculous BA w/ risp

White Sox will fall a bit back with the loss of some players, but not too far back as Konerko will bounce back after a season with an extremely unlucky babip. Its possibly for the Tigers to pull of what the White Sox just did, if their pitching pitches like it used to, but i’ll believe it when i see it. Royals were still the worst in the division last year despite their better record than the tigers. I see the Indians as having the best team on paper.

Twins take it.

If their young pitchers build on their success from last season, and Liriano pitches as he did down the stretch (and then some), I’ll go with Minnesota. Having two of best five hitters in the division does not hurt either.

The Indians seem to follow the New York Jets model of having a winning season every other year, but I’m not sure any more. Hafner is on the decline, the pitching staff is too inconsistent, and paying Kerry Wood 10 mil is just never a good idea.

Was he particularly lucky this year?

Sure, his W-L record was lucky (it would be for anybody), but he was still a legitimately good pitcher.

by thejd44 on Dec 31, 2008 12:26 AM PST up reply actions   0 recs

no, he wasn't really lucky

and so theoretically it’s possible he does the same thing next year. I mean, I guess it’s more of a hunch than an actual statistical probability, but the fact that before this year, he hasn’t been all that great leads me to believe he’s likely to post an ERA in the mid-to-high 3’s, rather than 2.5.

Talent regression rather than luck regression

He’s never posted an FIP below 3.79 before, but last year he put up a 2.83.

His Marcel ERA projection is 3.80, which makes him a good #2 pitcher but nothing like the guy he was last year.

The Royals and the Tigers. The Royals I eliminate because well…I always eliminate them. The Tigers because they did NOTHING to improve their biggest problem…the bullpen. The starting rotation is no gem either. Cleveland went out and got a legitimate closer and also added versatile position player Mark DeRosa today. I would guess that most evey Tiger fan felt pretty upset about all of the money spent (30 mill)on Dontrelle Willis, he sure didn’t work out.
I would think that the Twins would be the favorite in the division…but it’s too early to guess as some of the teams are still making moves.
