A Ramirez or Peralta and other blog preferences
3 comments
I know this is supposed to be a minor league blog, but my problem is that I haven't found other sites with as many intelligent and serious fans as this site. So, my first question is: what blogs are out there with good discussions with reasonable and reasoning fans of major league baseball. And the specific question I pose is who would you rather have - Alexei Ramirez or Jhonny Peralta? In my case I have a fantasy league with the following categories: avg, hr, rbi, sb, bb, & fielding percentage, and they'd be at a price where I could keep them for up to three years or so. That's for the poll, but for the sake of discussion, let's not limit it to fantasy baseball, but real baseball with the various parameters in real life...

Peralta
Ramirez is going to disappoint a lot of people.
He was way lucky last year. He had a 1.000+ OPS with RISP and a .720 OPS in all other situations last year.
That obviously can’t continue. Plus he only had like a 60% success rate in steals so it’s not like he has much upside there.
Peralta had a great season even with down seasons from VMart and Hafner (who may be done, but still). Peralta is still younger and has much more power.
And it’s sad, but Peralta also has more discipline

Ramirez is more likely to stay a SS

This is simply for fantasy baseball purposes. Shapiro has stated that DeRosa is slotted in at 3B and Peralta will be at SS for this season. He’ll be SS eligible for this season so staying there in the future doesn’t matter (unless its a deep keeper league or something).
