Astros Morning Snippets: Looking at ZiPS comps

Tyler White‘s interesting 2019 comp

If you don’t pay attention to Dan Szymborski’s annual ZiPS projections at FanGraphs, well, shame on you. While I won’t go into much detail here about this year’s ZiPS’ numbers, there are a couple of interesting comps on the Astros.

But my favorite of all the Astros’ comps this year was Tyler White’s: the “Merely Good” Frank Thomas. Hey, I’ll gladly take that level of production from the DH spot in the lineup.
