  • Justin Bour

    Seems like an interesting acquisition for the stretch run. Statistically not much different from Santana. Maybe someone else can explain exactly where he fits in.

      i'd imagined something like a platoon with bour getting more ABs against RHP, against which he's pretty good, and santana getting more ABs against LHP, where he's been comparatively better this year. but bench works too.

        This means Santana is going to ride the pine against right handers. Bour's OPS against righties is nearly 100 points higher.

                that honestly surprises me. i was going by dWAR (which is 25% of that award), where santana has a -1.0 this year compared to -1.1 for bour. there's also not much of a difference here: https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.as...ter=&players=0

                bour even ranks a little higher. anyway, i think it's a good pickup. cabrera, ramos, bour...i like what they're doing down the stretch.
