All ya gotta do is look at Nicky Lopez's ST #'s this year and see how being shitty in the spring = being shitty in the season! .378 OPS = .744 OPS Spring training means absolutely nothing. |

Soler crushed it in ST with a 1.005 OPS and now he's at .565. Spring training stats have jack shit to do with the regular season. |

That wasn't a visceral reaction. I didn't call him any names. I'm not upset whatsoever, but people that use spring training stats as a reason that guy might suck should be ridiculed. I didn't even really ridicule him.

DLPHG9: "How dare you suggest that Lee will suck forever because of a bad Spring Training!" That wasn't what TK was saying and you just went to that level without prompting. Just felt off. |

I don't think they do but I also wasn't out here saying he's probably doing well with the Mets. Even in Spring Training going hitless with strikeouts in over 50% of your ABs is terrible.

Are you related to Lee? Literally the only 'stats' he has since he left the Royals were posted. No one claimed it was some future indicator of long term failure or success. Sorry if that hurt your feels. Might wanna switch to decaf. |

He clearly had no clue that Lee was in the minors and said he wouldn't be surprised if he was doing well with the Mets, which isn't nearly as absurd as judging a player by 18 ABs that happened in ST. No it's not terrible. It's nothing and means nothing because ST stats mean nothing.

There were literally idiots on this very site using Patrick Mahomes 2018 preseason stats and saying we should have never gotten rid of Smith. It's the same thing. Using meaningless stats as some negative mark against a player. |

Just like no one should be judging Benintendi on 50 or 60 ABs. Time will tell. |

This is LITERALLY what I posted: "Not sure how he's doing in the minors, but in spring training this year with the Mets he was hitless in 18 AB's. So there's that . . . . . . ." It was speculated on how he was doing with the Mets. I posted the ONLY stats I could find on him since he left the Royals. That's it. I couldn't find any minor league stats on him with the Mets. So I posted what is above. And then you proceeded to lose your shit and get all defensive. Nothing was stated about the future long term success or failure of Khalil Lee in the Mets system based on his spring training stats. You drew that conclusion on your own. |

They said Metheny likes to give people books to read and then they will pick out something for him to read and lee gave him a book called,Race matters so its not fake news or some radio drama, with that said, I have no idea if that's why he was traded, that was my own speculation based on 16 years of the Royals front office and Dayton Moore and knowing how they value cohesiveness and refer to there organization as family and team chemistry but for a guy that I heard JJ Picollo referring to as, dynamic, and using words like Ken griffy Jr. to describe lee, it seems strange that when their depth for trades is pitching and not position players that they would move Lee, but again, its possible that their expectations for Lee changed in the last year and so he became expendable and that's most likely the reason he was traded but I cant rule the other issue out. |
