Where does Morneau get priced???

Big injury number (5), but that's a pretty decent hitting card eh? Best in the set all things considered. Plus he's a 2e2.

Maybe he'll be something like the Furcal from a few years ago. Around $7M.

Morneau had 9 less PAs than Beltran did in 2009, and Beltran received a "3"...Im hoping a 4 maybe??

The formula for games missed is 1.136 / ((62.53/RA) + .0064). R is the injury Rating. A is the number of PAs an ideal player "would" have if he played every inning of every game. Morneau looks like a #4 or #5 hitter. His stadium would likely be a power stadium, so his team would score a lot. That means a full-time every-inning player would have at least, say, 680 PAs. So Morneau would miss about 46 games, counting "remainder of game." That's more than 28% of the season. So if a comparable bullet-proof player can be found, Morneau would be about 70% of that guy's price.

Here are his card stats: 44.6 OB and 65.3 TB vs. left, with 7 HRs and 8 BPHRs. 57.2 OB and 67.8 TB vs. right, with 6.8 HRs and 8 BPHRs. Bad clutch but low DPs. Good fielder, but only at 1B. Slow.

In 2009, Fielder was SOMEWHAT similar, but only about 4/5 as good in OB and TB chances, and a worse fielder. Fielder cost 7.12 and was bullet-proof. So maybe the injury-5 is a wash with the lesser hitting, putting Morneau around 7.12, maybe 7.75 if a premium is put on the hitting.

Morneau will be a 5 injury; trust me.

I guess Furcal would be a good comparison.

So, is he worth the gamble at, let's say, 7.5?

What I wrote was based on the fact that Morneau will be a 5 injury. He will miss, on average, about 46 games a year, counting "remainder of game."

But I used Fielder's price from ATG (7.12) rather than from 2009 (8.45). So that was wrong. I think Morneau will be in the neighborhood of 8.45.

Morneau is a 5 injury rating (roll on 6 or 8) this year. It's in the ratings book.

5 injury. Injuries on the 8s this year.
