Nice Backyard Baseball reference! Curious your thoughts on Julien and Ruiz. I feel Ruiz is actually doing as well as one could hope. Albeit a few more steal attempts would be nice.
Nice call on things going as well as one could hope for Ruiz - he's a 3 steal game away from people getting really excited about him. I don't have a ton of holes to poke - maxEV is "fine", he isn't being blown away with his SwStr%. I think the BA might drop due to BABIP and I still hate the team/park context, but seems like he's holding his weight everywhere else!
I had some initial call-up thoughts on Julien on Patreon. Will circle back on him at some point once we get more info
Yeah too small a sample for anything on Peraza, but I think he's going to be a high contact, low-ish power middle infielder who could surprise in steals with the Yanks' "vault jump" stuff. I think he's going to be up for as long as Donaldson is sidelined, and if he does well enough he could force a tough decision

Definitely happy with what Ruiz is at the moment. You’re right on one big game. I love Juliens swing. Trying to buy where I can.
I know it’s just a few games but what do you think about Oswald Peraza?
