Coors Field and BABIP

This morning, the Rockies traded away Jason Hammel, a starter who has posted relatively high BABIPs over most of his career. While his .280 BABIP last year doesn’t look so bad, the distribution of when those hits came (.272 BABIP with bases empty, .291 BABIP with men on, .300 with RISP) – along with the .327 overall mark he posted in the prior two seasons – led...

Fantasy Impact: Orioles Send Guthrie to Rockies for Hammel, Lindstrom

In what many are calling a puzzling trade, the Baltimore Orioles have agreed to send starting pitcher Jeremy Guthrie to the Rockies for starter Jason Hammel and reliever Matt Lindstrom. I’ll leave it to the experts at Fangraphs and ESPN to debate the why. What I care about is the how — how this trade affects the fantasy values of those directly involved (Guthrie, Hammel...

Orioles Trade Jeremy Guthrie to the Rockies

The Orioles have traded workhorse starter Jeremy Guthrie to the Rockies for SP Jason Hammel and RP Matt Lindstrom.While I am sad to see Guthrie go, he was likely gone at the end of the season anyway and would have commanded somewhere around $9 million in salary through arbitration this season. Like the Luke Scott situation, I'm not sure why Guthrie was still on the team and believe...

Orioles Trade Jeremy Guthrie For…Huh?

Did The Baltimore Orioles Make The Right Move Trading Jeremy Guthrie?

As Dan S pointed out a few days ago, the Baltimore Orioles were finally able to trade their #1 starter, Jeremy Guthrie. For a team that was looking to build towards the future, it seems like an odd move to trade Guthrie to the Colorado Rockies for reliever Matt Lindstrom and starter Jason Hammel. So the question is, was it a worthwhile trade for the O’s? Guthrie’s acquisition...

Orioles waited too long to move Guthrie

The Baltimore Orioles should have traded right-hander Jeremy Guthrie at the non-waiver deadline last season, or even before. His value was higher when he was further away from free agency, under greater club control. Instead, the Orioles made a deal that is all too typical of them. They waited too long to move Guthrie and received too little in return. They need prospects, genuine...

Orioles Trade Jeremy Guthrie For Hammel, Lindstrom

I thought the Orioles should have been trying to trade Jeremy Guthrie (during the deadline last year, if possible), given his age and proximity to free agency, but I never thought the team would do it given that Guthrie - though not exactly an Ace by any stretch of the imagination - is the only pitcher on the club they could count on to be productive (ie, he's theirace). But...

Orioles Trade Rock-Steady Starter Jeremy Guthrie For Two Pitchers

The O’s sent Jeremy Guthrie to Colorado for pitchers Jason Hammel and Matt Lindstrom. Hammel is a big 29-year-old righthander who’s been a starter for a few years and hasn’t really distinguished himself in any way. Lindstrom is a 31-year-old RH reliever who throws hard. That’s all I know about those guys. What we know about Guthrie, 32, is that he was the rock in Baltimore’s...

Jason Hammel shows he belongs with the Colorado Rockies

There is no doubt about it, Jason Hammel has had a rough season. After a stellar June, he seemed to forget how to pitch. He was spinning off of his front foot and was missing his spots on a routine basis. He couldn't figure it out. His season spiraled downhill in the same fashion as his team's.The results on the mound resulted in a demotion to the bullpen for Hammel. The...

The Baltimore Orioles and Colorado Rockies made a rare February trade today, with Baltimore sending starter Jeremy Guthrie to the Rockies in exchange for starter Jason Hammel and reliever Matt Lindstrom.

Jason Hammel finally shines as Colorado Rockies win

It seems like a long time ago the last time Jason Hammel put in a performance that was worthy of positive comments. At one time, the tall right-hander was considered one of the best pitchers on the Rockies staff. He finished April with an ERA in the low threes and was looking to build on his first two successful seasons in Colorado. Instead, he took a nose-dive. It was as if he...
