Derek VanRiperHOST
He's a young rookie shortstop, and to see that I think it gives you a glimpse into some ways that over time he could actually be a more effective player.
Derek VanRiperHOST
Like he can be the kind of guy that because of his plate skills runs really high OBPs and ends up being a future table setter atop the lineup, even if the physical maturation of his power doesn't hit its full peak.
Derek VanRiperHOST
There's just a lot of different ways that Cooper Pratt, I think, can become a better offensive player over time.
Derek VanRiperHOST
And we're seeing that foundation going to be put in place here in this postseason.
Adam HoweHOST
It's just like, man.
Kevin HastingHOST
His last two seasons at AAA, he's got that OBP.
Kevin HastingHOST
We started to see just a little bit of the power.
Kevin HastingHOST
I still believe in Christian Campbell.

Kevin HastingHOST
I think Jonathan Aranda, I know it's 22 home runs.
Kevin HastingHOST
But if you watched him play much, got to see much of Jonathan Aranda, really, really nice at-bats.
Kevin HastingHOST
I think it's only 22 home runs, but with a .274 average, a .358 OBP, I think that was Aranda's breakout.
Kevin HastingHOST
And I think we see him improve upon it going forward.
Lenny MelnickHOST
The Rays were a worse offensive team than the Brewers during the regular season in just about every category.
Lenny MelnickHOST
OBP, slugging, OPS, runs scored, walks, even triples.
Lenny MelnickHOST
But Tampa Bay had them in one area.
Lenny MelnickHOST
They hit 15 more homers.
Adam HoweHOST
It's just like, man.
Kevin HastingHOST
His last two seasons at AAA, he's got that OBP.
Kevin HastingHOST
We started to see just a little bit of the power.
Kevin HastingHOST

Jack SommersHOST
You know, his OPS plus was 131.
Jack SommersHOST
For a guy with 26 homers and a 279 average, why is that? Not enough walks, right? The OBP wasn't outstanding.
Jack SommersHOST
It was okay.
Jack SommersHOST
He strikes out a lot.
Jesse FriedmanHOST
He hit 27 homers in 2026, hit 239.
Jesse FriedmanHOST
He's not a big on-base guy.
Jesse FriedmanHOST
His career OBP is 278.
Jesse FriedmanHOST
It was 298 this season.
Troy RenckHOST
That's what people miss on Moneyball.
Troy RenckHOST
It's, oh, it's about OBP.
Troy RenckHOST
No, it was about taking advantage.
Troy RenckHOST
advantage of a stat that wasn't utilized it's like we can find guys who get on base that we don't have to pay and win that way it's just finding a niche market well clearly the teams that scout the best and use analytics you don't have to be all analytics you have to have gut feel you still have to be able to trust your eyes but the proof's right here And I agree with you.
Ryan GarciaHOST
I think top 10 in each category, if I'm not mistaken, for centerfielders.
Ryan GarciaHOST
What you'll notice here is his on-base percentage has always been great.
Ryan GarciaHOST
And we're targeting OBP.
Ryan GarciaHOST
We're really honing on OBP because the Yankees were 24th in on-base percentage this past season.
Ryan GarciaHOST
And I think that was their biggest detriment as an offense.
Ryan GarciaHOST
They could not get on base.
Jack JohnsonHOST
The numbers just were never that great as a team.
Jack JohnsonHOST
Now, if you look at some of the surface numbers, as I like to call them, The Royals were around the middle of the league in average, OBP, slug, OPS.
Jack JohnsonHOST
But what matters here is run scored.
Jack JohnsonHOST
And in my opinion, what matters is home runs.
CiscoHOST
The average was 250 batting, 250.
CiscoHOST
The OBP was 347.
CiscoHOST
I don't know.
CiscoHOST
What is PA? I don't know what PA stands for.
Derek VanRiperHOST
Both of these teams were effective overall by WRC+.
Derek VanRiperHOST
That's not surprising given those OBPs.
Derek VanRiperHOST
Brewers clocking in with a 107.
Derek VanRiperHOST
Rays at a 104.
