[Angelsjunky]

Player A: .300/.379/.482 since July 1 (253 PA)

Player B: .287/.364/.492 for the season (in 140 PA)

 

Almost equal, no?

[m0nkey]

So who are they

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

Player B is Calhoun.

pig

[eaterfan]

Too small a sample size to project for future performance but based on this sample player A is better assuming all other facets of the game are equal.

[Caralho]

Hamilton and Calhoun?

[HaloCory22]

Definitely Hamilton and Calhoun

[HaloCory22]

Just kidding. Not Hamilton.

[m0nkey]

I think doc has it right

[HaloCory22]

Good call, Doc.

[SoWhat]

Player A = Puig

Player B = Calhoun

[Jay]

Anybody who says they prefer Calhoun is a racist.

[Angelsjunky]

Player A = Puig

Player B = Calhoun

 

Bingo.

 

I don't expect Calhoun to be anywhere close to the ballplayer Puig is and will be, I just found the similarity interesting.

Interesting that Puig has finally come back to earth somewhat.

 

He is still much better than Segura has been since July 1.   Yep, I did jump the gun on blasting the org for trading Segura for a rental.   I was thinking that maybe Segura was simply flourishing in a new org, but that is a mediocre OPS (around .625) since July 1.   As a hitter, he's been more like Morris Nettles since July 1.

If Calhoun could keep up a .850 OPS I would be thrilled.
