Pitchers are so hard to evaluate.  Here's my very subjective opinion of where Luciano fits. First, some general comments.    In terms of performance, there's a big gap between A+ ball and double A.  It's particularly hard in the last few years to weight A+ numbers too much because Dunedin has had a very good club in a pitcher-friendly environment.  And then there's scouting- stuff, control and command, poise, fielding, move/holding runners...  In some ways, we have more scouting information on Luciano than many of the other pitchers because all of us have seen him multiple times.

Let's start with the scouting.  We know that Luciano's stuff, while not major league ready, is obviously well on track given his age.  His fastball is already pretty good, and he's thrown some sliders with bite.  His change-up didn't wow me, but it was effective.  His control was a work-in-progress for major league purposes but was pretty good previously at the minor league level.  He was quite poised, I thought, and my subjective impression was that the time here will not adversely affect his development significantly (that is not always true).  I don't think that his confidence took a hit.

On to performance.  I don't think that you can compare Luciano to a pitcher who has had significant success at the double A level like Zeuch or Kay.  But to someone like Winckowski or Castillo or even pitchers like Murray, Murphy or Yennsy Diaz, you can try.  Luciano already misses bats at an acceptable rate for major league pitcher (9.7%).  That's a huge deal for predictive purposes.  There's no way that Winckowski or  Castillo could do that yet, and they are 19 and 9 months older than him.  Both had and have somewhat better control.  In the end, ZIPS projects ERA and FIP for the remainder of the season for Luciano  5.51/5.70 , Winckowski 6.06/6.04 and Castillo 6.37/.6.40.  I'd have Luciano ahead of those two. The players at double A are in a different category.  Joey Murray is 23 years and 2 months, and handled double A quite well for 43 innings including striking out 52.  Steamer projects him at 5.46/5.54.  I like Murray and I think he has a better chance at a major league career, but Luciano has a better chance (I think) to be a top-drawer major league starter.  Diaz is 22 years and 10 months and pitched decently at double A for 144 innings striking out 116.  ZIPS projects him at 5.87/.574.  He's thrown 140+ innings each of the last two years, and you have to give him points for durability.   Again, I think Diaz has a better chance at a major league career, but Luciano has a better chance (I think) to be a top-drawer major league career.  Murphy is a completely different story because of the whole balk/delivery issue.  Steamer has him at 5.24/5.22.  I have as much doubt about Murphy as Luciano on all counts,but I like them both. 

For me, Luciano is the Murray, Murphy, Diaz knot.  I've got him clearly behind everyone down to Zeuch on Jonny's list.  After that, it's desperate work to split hairs. 

Nate Pearson is in line for the Rodney Dangerfield award today. 

I'd prefer one great starter to two starters with some promise.  The org, of course, prefers to spread out risk.

Any measurement of outfield defence is best over a 2 or 3 year period.  Teoscar in his career has 2400 outfield innings, just under two 150 game seasons worth.  In that time frame, he is +1 FRAA, -14 outs above average (which equates to about -13 runs above average; the linear weight of a single is .7, a double 1.0 and a triple 1.27), -26 DRS and -17 UZR.  If you want to say he's a -8/150 centerfielder and a -5/150 corner, there's evidence for that if you give roughly equivalent weights to each system or if you think that he looks a little better in 2019 than in 2018 and previously.  Personally, I wouldn't and I'd have it as a -12/150 CF and a -9/150 corner, with greater weight attached to DRS and UZR. 

Poor Nate.  Doesn't even get a mention as the #7 starter on a vision of next year's club aimed at winning. 

You still the man, Pearson.  They named a freaking airport after you before you even got here.

If they do what you say, hypobole, what do you think the over/under on the attendance for 2020 is?  With reduced ticket prices in 2019, the club has drawn less than 1.7 million so far.  I don't know how much lower they can profitably go on ticket prices.  I suppose that they're not getting much revenue at all from the bleachers/500 level, and they could go do 2 for 1s and season's passes aimed at the younger crowd to boost their long-term market. 

I went to one game this year, and it will be zero next year if the club doesn't make an effort to compete. 

Dan, when I look at splits for a veteran player, I don't look at slash lines for a year or two because of sample size issues.  So with Dyson, he's been a better hitter for his career against RHPs.  This is, of course, the usual thing for a LHH.  If you look at the detail of his splits vs RHP over his career, his BABIP the last 2 years jumps out at you (.190 and .255).  If you look at his career splits vs. LHP over his career, his BABIP over the last 2 years also jumps out at you (.324 and .441).  The difference in BABIP is almost surely look and can be projected to be comparable against both kinds of pitching.  So, the fangraphs depth charts project him at .241/.318/.340 and that, in my view, is a fair estimate of what he is likely to do in a platoon role in 2020.  When you combine that with terrific baserunning and good defence in centerfield, he's likely still a 1-1.5 WAR player in a platoon role.  Obviously, you wouldn't want to sign him for more than a year given his age.

Margot and Enciarte would be reasonable trade targets if their clubs were interested in moving them.  Who knows if they are.
