Nationals may have trade interest in the Braves' center fielder Jordan Schafer

As reported by a Washington Nationals beat writer (via MLBTR):

[Nyjer Morgan} is the not the only outfielder the Nationals are looking at. They have interest in Braves outfielder Jordan Schafer. He began the season as Atlanta's everyday center fielder, but was sent down after the team acquired Nate McLouth from the Pirates.

The Nationals have been unhappy with their outfielders for quite some time. They have come to the conclusion that Adam Dunn and Josh Willingham belong in the American League as designated hitters and Elijah Dukes makes too many mental mistakes.

Only Willie Harris and Austin Kearns have played solid defense, but they are not part of the team's long-term plans.

The presence of Nate McLouth does make Jordan Schafer expendable if trading him nets us a more established offensive player. Man, they're already looking to trade Adam Dunn... Jim Bowden really messed that team up. Dunn is only signed for two years, and is relatively affordable, but I can't fathom us trading for Dunn when we could have signed him without giving up anything just four months ago.

Josh Willingham has always intrigued me, and I would consider him a definite offensive upgrade over Jeff Francoeur or Garret Anderson -- Willingham has the best OPS on the Nationals at .919. I'm not convinced that I would trade a prospect on the magnatude of Jordan Schafer for Willingham, but maybe he's worth it.

The article also says that they are interested in acquiring a second baseman after the season, could they have interest in Kelly Johnson?

Food for thought

You cannot get much worse defense in LF than Garrett Anderson. That is not based on statistics, that is based on direct observation. If I could understand fielding metrics, I would attempt to provide them.

However, I understand offense:

FUGA in ’09: 84 OPS+
FYF in ’09: 66 OPS+ (I wish that were a type-o)
Big Donkey in ’09: 137 OPS+
Willingham in ’09: 140 OPS+ (in 140 ABs)

You can look up other numbers if you wish…I’m not saying we need to make the trade or not, but having either of those guys would inject some production into the lineup.

Well...

Like I’ve tried to point out, Anderson is hitting fine now and getting better. Francouer and Kelly are the real drains on our offense at this point…

Oh, I agree. I was only comparing those 4 players, since that was what was in the OP.

I've been able to watch only a few games on tv this year

but from what I’ve seen, Anderson takes the worst routes and simply does not have the speed to make up for it. Either that or his speed is so bad it looks like his routes are, too.

i say do it..IF

the braves can make up a few more games on the phils the next few days..jordan may pan out, then again he may just be a realllly quick defensive player that strikes out ALOT in the majors..he has promise..kj may get better..but kj is expendable we have an option or two…it just depends on how close we are the next few days..at first i was dunn all the way..but it may not necessarilly be the lack a hitter like dunn..it may be coaching..i don’t know..seems like some days when our hitters should sit back and take a bunch of pitches..we are overly aggressive on first and 2nd pitches..and quick up and down innings.

I would be soooo pissed at Wren if he trades Schafer for Dunn and didn’t sign Dunn in the offseason. I think if we REALLY tried we could have signed Dunn for under $8 million that he got from the Nats this season and had him all year. I have been and will still remain on Wren side but that would be his biggest bonehead trade that he has ever done to sit there and give up Schafer for Dunn when we could have had Dunn in the offseason without given up nothin for him just cash.

by MichaelProcton on Jun 28, 2009 4:23 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I think we could have had him for slightly less than what the Nationals offered. Dunn has played on bad teams throughout his career and the chance to win might have been a draw to him.

by jack dein on Jun 28, 2009 4:39 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

exactly

jack dein. Thats why i think we could have signed him for 1 or 2 million less. And plus it seemed like at the World Baseball when Chipper and Dunn were on the same team i saw them around each other quite a bit seemed like they were pretty good friends. He took an offer of $8 million this year from Nats and $12 million next year so somethin like 6 million and 13 or 14 million in 2010 would seem legit to me. So thats what i was talkin about MichaelProcton. The thing is im not even sure we even have the cash to take on Dunn salary now anyway these are just rumors.

From what i heard we never even made an offer to him. Rumored was that Wren didn’t like his defense so he never even contacted him. If we had made an offer and had the cash i think he would have signed with us for $6 million or so for the 09 season. I mean i dont know for a fact but he has never made the playoffs and im sure he was aware that the Nats are just NOT gonna make the playoffs in 2009 or 2010.

I would do it

but I’m not really sure what the Nationals would have to offer. I’m became very unimpressed with Schafer and now I’m not that sure that he will ever pan out. I would take Kearns or Willingham but they would have to throw someone else to complete it.

by jack dein on Jun 28, 2009 2:42 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

ok this is for the big time defensive stat guys. I dont know alot about the defensive stat thing i will be honest but doesn’t it show that McLouth is more suited in LF cause his defense in CF isn’t all that great? And Schafer is a natural in CF? Ummmm and plus we traded Gorkys, im thinkin that we need to keep Schafer cause we dont have any other defensive wiz CF out there.

ok its just i remember some defensive stat guys mentioning how bad his defense is his URZ or somethin like that i mean im not familiar with that kind of stat but the way they talked he is more suited for LF than CF in the future or whatever.

I remember hearing last year when he won the Gold Glove that everyone was surprised, but then a few days ago i saw he fielding percentage and it was pretty good.

by jack dein on Jun 28, 2009 3:03 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

There are more things to defense than fielding percentage.

If his range isn’t that good and he only tries to make “sure thing” plays, there are certainly better options out there.

Remember, kids...don't ever let facts get in the way of your argument.

by MichaelProcton on Jun 28, 2009 4:25 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Fielding percentage is virtually useless as a statistic. It ignores too many aspects of defense.

McLouth’s career UZR in CF is -25.6 (also negative in RF), and -10.8 UZR/150. This year he is -3.5 UZR and -5.2 UZR/150.

Schafer OTOH is -2.3 UZR and -8.2 UZR/150 (in just his major league time).

UZR/150 is a normalized stat assuming 150 games. Both refer to runs above average. Its just one stat, and in Schafer’s case the sample size is small, but McLouth is a below average CF.

I think his offense makes up for any problems on defense. Would you rather have Schafer out there getting to more balls but striking out a lot or McLouth not getting to as many but providing good offense and some speed to our offense.

by jack dein on Jun 28, 2009 4:41 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Personally i would for next season rather have Schafer in CF and McLouth in LF but thats just me.

It's not mutually exclusive...

The question is more about who would be better in CF if they’re both on the team, not who should be on the team.

This is why I don’t understand fielding metrics. This sounds like calculus.

But I do at least agree the FP is pretty useless.

by jug on Jun 28, 2009 5:23 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

UZR divides the field into a bunch of zones. Each zone is the responsibility of a fielder. Every ball is plotted into the zone and whether the fielder made the play on it or not is recorded. For each zone, an average number of balls fielded is recorded and then each player’s results are compared to that average. For example, if McLouth fields 7 balls in zone 101, while the average center fielder fields 8 balls, McLouth would be charged with one play below average. The run value of a ball is determined by finding out what a single, double, etc. has been worth throughout baseball history, and for each play missed, the fielder is charged with that many runs and for each play made above-average, the fielder is credited with that many runs. There are park adjustments and other modifications, but that’s basically it.

A great fielder will be +15, very good is +10, above-average is +5, so on and so forth.

One thing to keep in mind is that defensive stats take a long time to stabilize because of how much is missing from the equation, so that a really good fielder could have three seasons where they are +10, 0, +10. You can just find the average or weighted average of those years to determine their true talent fielding level.

There’s lots of noise in the data and it’s not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but until better stuff comes out of Hit f/x and other tools like that, UZR is the best by far that we have.

Thats spread out over 150 games to simulate what his number would be over a full season, as opposed to regular old UZR, which is just up to that point in time

by bigjoe on Jun 29, 2009 8:36 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

What about positioning?

Does UZR take into account a fielders position before the batter makes contact? I understand that each fielder is responsible for a particular zone, but I also understand that just about all fielders are placed in spots due to scouting, batter tendencies, etc, and is almost never in “straight up” center field for example.

I guess this may be too much to ask for in a defensive metric and this may be one of the reasons why it isn’t completely accurate.

by In a Flash on Jun 29, 2009 11:22 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Or shifts?

Like the Big Papi shift…what if he decides for whatever reason to go opposite instead of pulling and he hits it to where the 3B normally would be, but since the 3B is now in the SS position, he cannot get to the ball…

So is UZR a career average or seasonal? When you say “up to that point” it confuses me a little.

Would it be accurate to say that UZR is the season up to that point (whether it be 10 or 100 games) and UZR150 is the last 150 games, whether they be all this current season, or back into last season?

UZR is seasonal...

the 150 is just adjusted to a (mostly) full season’s worth of games for normalization.

have all of you lost your minds? Josh Willingham? Is winning this season worth that much to you guys? Your going to give up a future stud like JS for the CHANCE to make up ground on the Phils? ANd for Willingham? wow, 14 straight winning seasons has really pampered some fans. Look at how much the farm has been depleted from moves all season, and you are considering moving our #1 or 2 farmhand. Im shocked and appalled gondee, you would back this up. Granted, the team isnt very good this season, but we have a future to think about, and JS will be able to contribute to that more than willingham. Not only that, FYF is STILL going to be in RF, wheres JW going to play? Hes a 4th OF on the Nationals for Pujols sake.

The future is Schafer more than Dunn. I think they will regret it if they trade him because IMO it won’t be too long before he could come up and be a real contributor to the team for a very long time.

This is horseshit

In what scenario is trading Jordan Schafer for ANY outfielder on the Washington Nationals a good idea? Why is this not being shot down universally in here?

Willingham – What kind of significant, team-improving upgrade is he over anyone on the current roster?

Dunn – The money seems to be an issue here, not to mention, the fact that the Nats don’t want him should speak volumes for the Braves’ potential interest in him. Especially when he was on the market almost all winter. If we didn’t want him then, trading Schafer to get him now is beyond absurd.

Kearns – Not even sure where to start on how shitty this guy has become.

I’d be surprised if this rumor went further than it has already. It’d be giving up on Schafer way too soon. Kelly Johnson, though, they can have.

Logan has a lot of speed, a great arm and plays terrific center. He was absolutely rushed to the majors and got hurt once he got there. We HAVE to give him some time to get healthy and productive again. It would be ridiculous to not see what he’s capable of once properly prepared.

This

is exactly what I feared. We don’t need to trade away the future for the sake of one season. Schafer needs more time to develop, but he can be a killer center fielder and, with Heyward and McLouth in the corners, our outfield will be pretty fearsome. Dunn/Willingham is a short-term band-aid that wouldn’t really help us for more than a year or two.

by sexbobomb on Jun 28, 2009 8:00 PM EDT reply actions   1 recs

No Kearns, he has never done anything,

Willingham maybe, but not for Schafer, maybe KJ

Adam Dunn, is still a pipe dream however he is more of a 1st basemen then an OF.

Regardless we need the offense so getting Dunn would be nice and I guess I would give up Frenchy or KJ but not Schafer.

Because there isn’t an ML-ready 1B in the system. I know you might say Canizares, but I really don’t think he has the hitting to make up for his weak glove. Something like Kotchman’s defense is not the kind of thing you’d notice until it was gone.

I feel like statements like these are only acceptable if they’re made with the understanding that, if she were to approach you in real life, there is no scenario where you wouldn’t gladly accept her advances. To say that, as a dream woman, she’s not your preference is perfectly fine, but if anyone’s going to argue that that woman isn’t completely desireable, well, that’s insane.
