With the new mechanics, Improved stuff, and a little bit of deception. I think there is some upside in him. He's always had a plus slider, a Above-average Curve, and now a Fastball that has picked up a few thicks, there is 3/4 type of upside in him. Biggest thing will be the command/control for him. 

We can rebuild him. We have the technology. We can make him better, than he was. Better, stronger, faster. -- Perry "Oscar Goldman" Minasian.

Its seems like every since maddon was let go, the team as be driving in the analytic sites more than we've ever seen. It 's a welcoming sign.

I've been pretty down on him, but at this point, I assume he'll go into next year with a 40-man spot and then they'll let things shake out in spring training.  Given how he started out, I thought they might just dump him.

It's been night and day in some areas..   Also interesting how so many of the SPs started to change their pitch selections once he was gone.  It's like they all of a sudden started throwing the pitches that the analytics said they were being most effective with.

But, Maddon wasn't the problem ...  Nope...

He's got long man/slop time pitcher written all over him.  Essentially a LH version of Barria -- minus the track record of success.

I'm just not on the Tucker train yet.   The stuff just doesn't do much for me.

Barria in to replace him.  5 BB, 3 H in 4 1/3.

Never said he was going to be an Ace......said he might be a 3/4..........

[Vlad27Trout27]

Personally I see more of a command/control issue rather than stuff issue with him. This inning was the perfect example, walks and falling behind ended him.

A 3/4 is what Reid Detmers was this year.

A 3/4 is what Reid Detmers was this year.

For me;

#1 and true Ace: ERA is under 2.90, and Xfip/FIP are under 3. War is 4.5+

#2: Era is between 2.90-3.45, and  Xfip/FIp are under 3.50; War is 3.5-4.4

#3  ERA 3.50-3.90, Xfip/FIp are under 4: Average war is between 2.5-3

#4 Era/Xfip/FIp is 3.9-4.10 average of 2.0 War

#5 is 4.10-4.35 Average of 1-1.5 War. 

So, when I see Davidson has a 3/4; I envision him to be around 3.80-4.10 ERa and War around 1.-2 range and onces again that if everything works out. 

Detmer's season, was a season of two tails; 1st half he was more a 4, 2 second half more of a 2. 

Sandy is a the perfect example of a borderline #2 and a really solid 3.

Anyhow, Everyone has different opinions but I happy we've gotten good pitching finally! and were trying to improve our pitcher and make them better!

I do as well.  To the point that I'd like to see Davidson end up 7th on the depth chart next year.  Maybe 6th.  

[Second Base]

I regret even bringing up Davidson at this point. I was just remaking that we may have unearthed a solid reliever.... casually. Here we are a week later still discussing it.

The periscope can cause indigestion. 

[Second Base]

Ok, I already know my answers here but...

Which of the top 10 Angels prospects from MLB.com do you think has the greatest chance at busting? 

Which of 11-30 do you think will have the best MLB career?

I thought we were already talking about submarines with all the scouting talk and the Perry-scoping of prospects...

Gotta try both so you can do a proper comparison.   Like the Pepsi Challenge.
