Thursday Rockpile: Phillies repeat as NL champs; Monforts seem financially healthy

After watching the Phillies pound through the Dodgers in five games by an average score of 7 to 3.2, I don't feel so bad about the Rockies losing their series against the Phils by an average score of 5 to to 3.75. Ha, we played the NL champs better than you did, blue boys.
So, other than the Patrick Saunders report of Dan O'Dowd's extension that BlakeBomber posted last night, there's not much new going on with the Rockies this morning. I guess we could talk about ownership's financial health, as it was reported that an LLC managed by Rockies co-owner Dick Monfort purchased a chunk of bad loans from the New Frontier auction yesterday. The basic premise of mentioning this here is that if the Monforts are financially healthy and not getting into any Bernie Madoff type of Ponzi schemes, and a new investment like this seems to indicate as much, or going through messy divorces to carve their empire, than the Rockies will continue in stability and general health as a franchise.
The Colorado franchise itself still seems to be a great investment for all concerned ownership parties, as there have been no reports of limited partners wanting to jump ship or cash calls being made. Given a larger payroll and the lower average sold ticket price, it's quite possible the team actually lost money this year as claimed, but another playoff appearance by a young team that Denver fans are warming up to, combined with a slowly recovering economy suggests that 2010 should see a rebound and perhaps we could see another bump in payroll for 2011.
I suppose this is a good place to put what should be a basic tenet for anybody wanting to do some 2010 hot stove fantasy rebuilds of the Rockies:
1. IF YOU WANT TO SEEM CREDIBLE, DO NOT SUGGEST A 2010 ROCKIES TEAM THAT REQUIRES A HIGHER PAYROLL THAN WHAT WE SAW IN 2009
We should come up with more of these.

More on this next Thursday, but with the arbitration cases the Rockies have this offseason...
there’s little chance of them maintaining their current payroll. They WILL probably have a higher payroll (or at the lowest a similar payroll) than 2009.

by Jeff Aberle on Oct 22, 2009 2:45 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
I could see how the payroll might increase marginally,
but you know that point had more to do with a significant bump and fans speculating about which high profile free agent or Brian Roberts the team is going to target. The Rockies will be losing Jason Marquis and Garrett Atkins and that will be a hefty savings, my guess is that given the news that Brad Hawpe is staying, Ryan Spilborghs might be moved instead, so that’s one less arbitration player. I’m interested to see what you come up with. I’m guessing it will be very close to the $75 million it was this year.

Agree
I mean, I’m just going off that one Post story about payroll not changing much. I don’t have my notes here, but and I put some of it in a thread back in August, but I gave fairly healthy arb raises based on comps I could find, e.g., $7.5M to Street, ~$4M to DLR, $2.2 M to Iannnetta (this was before we knew he’d never play again).
It was possible to bring in payroll at $75M, but it was very tight. I didn’t find room for $5M Jason Marquis or Atkins replacements.

This statement makes no sense..
A.) EY Jr. is the same age as Barmes when Clint first started for the Rockies
B.) EY Jr. has better minor league numbers than Barmes did.
- Compare their AA Avg/OPS: Barmes .272/.765 with 31 walks, EY2 .290/.784 with 61 walks
C.) EY Jr’s career .962 Fld% is higher than Barmes’ Fld% at SS .954 and 2B .947 in the minors
D.) Barmes would fit better in a role as a late inning defensive replacement.
If you really want to blow your mind, compare EY Jr.‘s minor league numbers to Chris Nelson’s. Yes the same Nelson that Keith Law ranked as the #8 SS/2B in the minors.

ill pick all this apart
1 – barmes came up during the beginning of a rebuild, and the standards were obviously lower
2 – for partially that reason, comparing ey2 now to barmes then doesn’t jive. Its barmes now vs ey2 now, and barmes is a lot better than when he broke into the majors
3 – Nelson has always been a high upside raw type of prospect. So his uninspiring stats are overlooked in favor of raw talent. Will he put it together? I am doubting it, but sometimes such players do. #15 for the cards had a worse slugging percentage than Cory Sullivan in AA in his last full minor league season

Pointing out that EY2 was better..
at drawing walks and getting on base in the minors than Barmes correlates with his ability to do so in the majors. Also I was wrong about EY2, he’s 2 years younger than Barmes when he began starting in the majors. Barmes repeated AAA before he was called up as a starter. Barmes has participated in AAA in 4 seperate seasons.

You are one of the many, many Rockies fans in denial about this
The club has done everything short of coming out and saying that Barmes is the starting second baseman next season, making overtures to him about a long term contract, indicating that they’d be willing to listen to deals for EY2 and making no indication whatsoever that they’re going to have a competition for the slot next Spring. Why I put that point there is that it’s one of those things we’ll just have to live with as Rockies fans whether we like it or not. While I don’t think this is the best solution, it’s what the team will be doing.
I also believe that much more than any catcher on our team, Barmes is the least appreciated Rockies player here at Purple Row, and much of it is undeserved. According to FanGraphs he was worth $8.4 million to the team in 2009, while he made $1.625 million. Figuring that he’s not going to get much more than that in his next contract, that’s an incredible bargain for a player just one year away from free agency, and it allows the club to spend more money in other places.
by Rox Girl on Oct 22, 2009 4:55 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
I have defended Barmes'
defense for a long time. He is a valuable defensive player, just like Quintanilla was. There is just little upside on the offensive end and if the team isn’t going to give EY2 a shot than they will be making as big a mistake as if they were naming Atkins the 3B starter for 2010.

I really don’t see Tracy as the “play the Vet” type like Hurdle was, giving Stewart the full time role until the playoffs, as my only real evidence of this. I think they’ve at least got to make Barmes earn it.

that traded didnt make a whole lot of sense
But at least acknowledge it was regarded as stupid as it looks now. Dye was unproven and neifi was considered by some as a franchise short stop. I remember all star campaigns and a backlash that o dowd would trade him

Dye was unproven?
The trade was during the middle of the 2001 season. In 1999, Dye hit .294-27-119. In 2000, .321-33-118.
But what many fail to realize is that the trade was NEVER a simple Dye for Perez swap. The Rockies wanted to be rid of Neifi and replace him with the less-expensive Juan Uribe. They were eager to get prospects, not take on a large contract like Dye’s. Similarly, KC knew they would not be able to afford Dye. This was a three-way trade, with prospects (Ortiz-Belitz-Encarnacion) going from Oakland to Colorado. The Rockies never had Dye for more than a minute or two and had no interest in keeping him, despite his unquestioned talent.
FWIW, Ortiz hit as many homers in 2001 for the Rockies as Dye did for Oakland, but regressed in 2002 and was released.
Perez was a pretty good shortstop here; somehow he became the worst player in the AL and a punchline to any number of jokes. But he was much better than that as a Rockie.

I remembered Dye differently when I was a preteen :)
and actually, you’re right about it being effectively a three-team trade. I didn’t follow FO moves very closely back then, and I didn’t even know about Dye’s involvement for a couple years afterward. My most important point is where we are in agreement. Perez was pretty good with the Rockies (though overrated) and wasn’t terrible until he wore Royal blue

Everyday shortstop for four seasons...
.282 average with occasional power, especially batting righthanded; rarely walked and didn’t strike out overly often. Won a Gold Glove in 2000. Drove fans crazy with his continual fake bunts, which served no purpose other than to put him behind in the count. Hit walkoff homer on last day of season in 1998 to beat Giants and force them into wildcard playoff game with Cubs. All this by the age by age 25.
Rockies actually offered him a very fair multiyear offer; but when he turned it down, they dealt him soon thereafter.
To my way of thinking, Perez was pretty good for Rox, although he did some things that made no sense. He was also a mentor of sorts for younger Latin players. All in all, a worthwhile player here.
by alex colfax on Oct 23, 2009 10:20 AM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
In parts of six seasons with the Rockies...
and 2864 PAs, Perez produced a total of 1.1 WAR. Figuring 600 PAs as a typical season, that’s about 0.23 WAR per season with the Rockies, barely above replacement player performance. In fact, in 1998 and 1999, seasons in which he played basically every day, he was worth 2.0 WAR-well below replacement performance.
The fact that in 2000 and 2001 he put up 1.5 and 1.3 WAR seasons helped, but the fact remains that Neifi was never even a league average player for the Rockies (or for anyone else).
I get that his age mitigates this judgment somewhat, but the fact is that Perez just wasn’t very good with the Rockies.

On RG's first topic
I was also proud the Rockies played the Phillies tougher than the boys in blue. More evidence above. Led me to conclude that while the Rockies where one strike and/or one or two Tulo basehits from winning/extending the serires, I don’t think LA was ever that close.
I think it also suggests that there was not that much space this year between Colorado, LA, St. Louis, and Philly. However, it looks like in the end, each of the losers had closer issues, and no one could thwart the Phillies’ lineup.

Oh yeah, gotta share this....
…I’ll be out most of today, as we’re transferring Jenn from the long term acute hospital to the rehabilitation hospital in Loveland. WOOHOO!!!! This should be the last stop for her before we can bring her home in a few weeks (hopefully). Thanks for all your well-wishes over the past several months!

…as Jenn took 30 steps with a walker yesterday, we can say she’s already capable of something Barmes isn’t. She’s willing and able to take a walk once in a while.

Oh, I love Barmes for his defense
Seriously, I’m a big fan of glove work. And his dingers this year were a pleasant shock. But a .289 OBA (or whatever, it’s close, but I didn’t look it up this time) just doesn’t cut it over 550-600 PAs.
But without a big roster move, he’s still our best existing candidate for 2B full time, so I’m sure he goes into next season as starter. I wouldn’t sign him to a multiyear, though.

There’s no chance the Dodgers stick with Belliard next year, is there? He must have visited Manny’s doctor upon arriving in LA – his numbers since there are sick. But gotta be totally unsustainable.

i wonder
You hear relievers frequently say they feel comfortBle with consistent roles and that teams in general feel more confident with a lights out closer. That could translate to a completely unquantifable amount of value. Not enough to rationalize k rod, sure. But I’m ok with street getting a contract worth more than his value. At least it will save rockies fans everywhere on doctor visits for ulcers

I would say if
a Rockies reliever has earned it it’d be Street. I agree with Jabberwocky to an extent, in that I’m against long term contracts for relievers, but at the same time – some stability in the back end of the bullpen would be nice. Buying out 2 of his free agent years would be acceptable to me.

I was against it for Manny Corpas
yay 1.5 years of being good, no reliever has ever been lights out and then suddenly collapsed.
Street, at the very least, is an incredibly productive reliever, headcase or no.

Some AFL Updates
Through 8:
Gomez 2/5, 2RBI
Holcomb 2/4, 3R
Also – KLaw had some observations about our prospects in his blog today (Insider subscription needed)
A couple quotes:
Gomez:
He has quick hands and good bat speed, is an above-average runner and moves well at short with more than enough arm. The ball comes off his bat well, and I’ve seen him drive balls out to left field. Two things I can’t stand about Gomez, though: his feet and his eye.
Rosario:
…he didn’t appear rusty in Arizona. His swing is compact with good follow-through, and he has good plate coverage up, but sets his hands up high and gets long when he swings at anything down in the zone.

Probably not until 2011 or 2012
He played 2008 and 2009 in Modesto (High A), so I would bet he starts 2010 in Tulsa (AA). He’s just 21 now. He could come up in September next year with a really good year, but that would surprise me.
by Hizilla on Oct 22, 2009 5:07 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
possible September call-up next season, I'm guessing 2011 is more likely for his first MLB action
and he should be a pretty significant player for us in 2012.

So I take it you don't see him staying at short?
by Hizilla on Oct 22, 2009 5:10 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
Not with the Rockies, unless Tulo tanks rapidly at the position.
By significant player in 2012, I’m guessing as a sort of super utility at second/third and in the outfield at times. I think he should be a full time player in 2013 at either second or third.
by Rox Girl on Oct 22, 2009 5:40 PM MDT up reply actions 0 recs
He'll take the Barmes role
as a low OBP, decent SLG 2nd baseman.
I’m kidding, sort of. Obviously there’s a lot of development ahead of him.

We need to find a new, cheap second baseman, if this is possible.
Although barmes plays good defense, we can’t stick him in the lineup everyday if he continues to try to pull the ball for a homerun, and then strikeout or hit a popup to the infield. Any suggestions for a replacement that is attainable?

It was a bad call against the Yankees that got us the replay we do have.
So that’s par for the course, and certainly not exclusive to Fox. In fact, for those that want replay, root for horrific calls against the Yankees.

Atkins for Papelbon?
I didn’t make this up.
Ralph Routon, editor of the Colorado Springs Indpendent, posed that question in this week’s Indy. (He was a sports columnist for the Gazette in the 80s and 90s before moving on to other venues, then returning as the Indy’s editor).
“Possible trade? Let’s see, the Boston Red Sox may give up on closer Jonathan Papelbon, who turns 29 next month, and Colorado should be in the market after Huston Street’s sad playoff ending. So how about Garrett Atkins for Papelbon? "
I realize it’s possible the Red Sox might see things differently.

Don't trust any talks with Boston.
I’ll never forgive them for backing out of the Kelly Shoppach deal that also involved the Orioles, I believe. Especially since we had committed to Baltimore. I may be wrong but I think Eric Byrnes was part of the deal going from the Rockies to Baltimore.

Fuentes: “Just throw strikes”
Those three walks would beg to differ
I'm still hoping to wake up from that nightmare I had about the 9th inning of Game 4.

"I'm not gonna lie. I was a little worried"...lol
Dear Rockies - 2009 NL Wild Card Champs. Best turnaround in MLB history for a team to win the Wild Card. Thank you for a wonderful rollercoaster of a season. Can't wait to do it again next year!!
Troy Tulowitzki - THE best SS in the game..nuff said
Yorvit Torrealba - En Fuego!! (when hitting 6th or 7th)
Brad Hawpe- Big Bad Brad, I hope I get to see you in a Rockies uniform again!
Dexter Fowler - prowling CF, WC in his talons, leaping Utley's in a single bound!

Its kind of fun watching that with Fuentes and not having
a vested interest….

I was thinking that earlier in the season but tonight I had a vested interest
This was more of a flashback

it was knowing what was going to happen and not dreading it like in the past.

There was some bad managing tonight
Soshia pulled Lackey too quickly and Giradi left Burnett in for too long
I'm still hoping to wake up from that nightmare I had about the 9th inning of Game 4.

Qestion to Giradi: "How concerned are you about Hughes?"
Giradi: “Well he’s still making pitches”
Yeah bad ones
