Poll: Projecting Luke Voit’s 2019

By Connor Byrne | February 3, 2019 at 4:54pm CDT

Among major leaguers who finished with at least 150 plate appearances in 2018, future Hall of Famer Mike Trout unsurprisingly led the way in wRC+ (191). But who finished second? Was it AL MVP Mookie Betts, NL MVP Christian Yelich or another big-name superstar? No, it was Luke Voit, who put up a 187 wRC+ in 161 PAs divided between the Cardinals and Yankees. Voit took a mere 13 trips to the plate until late July, when New York acquired him from St. Louis for a pair of relievers, and then proceeded to give the first baseman-needy Yankees an answer at the position over the final couple months of the season.

During his first 148 PAs as a Yankee, the burly, boisterous Voit batted a video game-like .322/.398/.671 with a Ruthian ISO (.350) and 15 home runs. And Statcast backed up Voit’s production, ranking the soon-to-be 28-year-old first in barrels per plate appearance and expected weighted on-base average (.437) among those who racked up at least 150 PAs on the season. While Voit benefited from a .365 batting average on balls in play, a number he may not approach again, the Yankees are understandably optimistic he’s good enough to serve as their No. 1 option at first going forward.

This has been an active offseason in the infield for New York, which has signed DJ LeMahieu and Troy Tulowitzki while showing interest in Manny Machado, but the team has been quiet at first base. Despite Voit’s limited track record, the right-handed slugger’s incredible showing toward the end of 2018 has made him the odds-on favorite to start at first in 2019 for the Yankees, whose previous long-term hope, the lefty-swinging Greg Bird, has fallen short of expectations because of a spate of injuries and less-than-stellar overall production. The Yankees have been bullish on Bird, but he missed all of 2016 because of a shoulder injury, and then produced very little from 2017-18 while dealing with foot problems. His horrific 2018 campaign made it necessary for the World Series-contending Yankees to address first, where they ultimately chose to turn to Voit over the summer.

While it’s still too soon to give up on the 26-year-old Bird, he may not receive regular playing time with the Yankees again unless Voit falls flat. Although Bird was a much better prospect than Voit during their younger days, there’s no doubt the latter has been the superior major leaguer to this point. Consequently, as the Yankees prepare for a championship push, they’ll continue with Voit at first, undoubtedly hoping last season wasn’t a mirage and they’ve acquired a star-caliber hitter for next to nothing.

The Steamer projection system doesn’t expect the 2019 version of Voit to serve as an offensive force, though, as it predicts he’ll wind up with an above-average but hardly world-beating .262/.335/.458 line. That would make for a .793 OPS, far better than what Yankees first basemen managed from 2016-18 but also much less impressive than the production Voit offered during his abbreviated showing last season. Now that he’s the Yankees’ preferred choice at first, how do you expect Voit to perform in 2019?

        kayrail i guess youre seriously mathematically handicapped. replacement level is set at 20 percent below average and considering he was considerably above average last year. you are predicting he’ll get released

        therefore you have set a very high standard for failure for yourself

        or conversely you are an idiot which is far more likely

        No it isn’t. Bond didn’t start using steroids until after the ‘98 season, at which point he had been in the league for 13 years. Trout has only been in the league for 8 years.

          Ok, that legitimately could be a xabial comedy comment. Trout is about to sign a record contract when he becomes a FA; no steroids. What player in their RIGHT MIND would forfeit his Hall of Fame possibilities, remove his credibility, and ruin his public image to attempt to break a record that he may or may not break anyway.

        It’s a great situation for all parties. For Greg Bird, he has 1 more shot and getting it together or he’s in AAA or heading to Japan in 2020.

        For Voit, he can prove last year was no fluke for Luke and can be the starter if Bird falters.

        If both falter, Cashman goes after a 1B like Encarnacion or Smoak. Both carry expiring contracts.

        Ya we all know Belt has his warts. He’ll also likely be the best available out there.

        Depends on lots of stuff: if Stanton bounces back, how Judge does, Tulo, etc.,etc. And exactly how far back they are approaching August; no one seriously thinks they’ll be ahead.

        There are worst solutions out there than Brandon Belt.

    What’s interesting about the Voit deal is that the primary goal was to acquire international spending pool money and free up a 40-man roster spot.

    Voit’s 2018 production was purely a happy bit of luck.

      I don’t think that’s true. How do YOU assume it was about the pool money? You’re drawing your own conclusion based upon how YOU see things.

      Cashman has said ““He was someone that was on our radar, our analytics crew had noticed him early on, and in a lot of our meetings last year, he was someone that we coveted from St. Louis and we finally matched up,”

      He goes on to say that Voit “has exceeded his expectations” but notes that the talent to perform at that level was the reason they acquired him. He also said that he was acquired to replace Austin whom was out of options and would be traded to acquire Lance Lynn. So he WAS what they wanted and I would suggest the pool money was the bonus, even if they latler used that money to sign an international prospect to a large bonus. I think it was equal parts a move for Voit and the money.

          Bird has sustained a better ISO and a better walk rate than Voit throughout his career despite his struggles. Given his extreme flyball rate he won’t ever have a “high BABIP” but he should be able to sustain a .270-.280 rate. If he can do that that would put him in line to slash .245/.325/.490 which is not amazing but that would require no “improvements” just to have his luck sort of regulate itself. It could be even better if he shows improvements in his peripherals. Compare this with an expected slash from Voit of .260/.320/.440 (see my comment lower in the column for my Voit breakdown). That’s an OPS of .815 for Bird and .760 for Voit. Given Bird is a better defender than Voit, overall, that would be a much better season.

          any good production Bird had was back in 2015. I think both will be garbage next year, but at least Voit will have earned his roster spot.

    I like Voit. I liked him with the Cards, but they (Matheny) wouldn’t give him much of a look. I don’t now, and didn’t then, think he is a star, but he doesn’t have to be. If he can be at, or slightly above, replacement level, then he’s a fit. If, that is, he can improve his defense some.

    Thank you for this article. I posted this on some thread a while back about Voit so I’ll post it again here.

    Okay, here is why you shouldn’t trust Voit to continue what he did last year.

    1. He had a 40% flyball/hr rate. This is insanely high. He has a career minor league rate of about 11%, which means he will have a 75% regression.

    2. He had a ISO of .350 while averaging an ISO of about .180 in the minors. This means you can half the number of extra base hits (20). By the way he had 15 hrs and only 5 doubles. That ratio is incredibly skewed and further shows that his hr rate will not continue.

    3. He had a BABIP of .365 last year which is .060 higher than his track record at the Major Leagues and the MLB average. Given his hitting profile, a .305 BABIP would seem like a realistic hope for him over a full season. Lowering his .322 average to about .260.

    4. Last year in only 1/3 of a season, he graded out as a crappy 1B, which isn’t a huge deal as most 1B are bad fielders, but there is nothing he is doing with his glove to save any mediocrity at the plate.

    So in conclusion, he will most likely be a .260ish hitter with a .320ish OBP with 18 or so HRs and plays a bad 1B. That is not an everyday player. Sure, if he was a SS, he would be something special, but as a 1B, he is replacement level. He would make a solid weak side platoon, or a RH bat of the bench, but a championship team should not be rolling him out there everyday.

      Which is why he was expendable by the Cardinals. Andujar is a terrible 3B and has a better bat than Voit. The Yankees will move him to 1B at some point this coming season, maybe even in spring training.

      I wouldnt necessarily pin that regression against him based off his minor league numbers. A lot of the time players develop more power once they hit the bigs, even if their minor league numbers disagree. That said, i would expect a regression, just not straight back down to his minor league numbers.

    So giddy when I saw this topic. First, disclaimer. He has an obvious small sample size.

    That being said, he is the perfect victim of ageism and non-top 100 pedigree status.

    He was a 4 year player at MSU. Drafted out of HS by the Royals but declined to sign.

    Drafted at age 22.

    His was not a story of a guy who struggled to find his way. He didn’t wow anyone but he posted a solid .274/.352./.421 at A+ in his 2nd and 3rd seasons. His “breakout” season was his 4th year in the minors at AA with a .292/.377/.477.

    He was called up to the majors by the Cardinals and failed to wow anyone with a .246/.306/.430 line and was sent to AAA in 2017 and but together a 3/4/5 season.

    In 2018 he posted a combined .301/.390/.506 at AA/AAA and a .322./.398./.671. He showed he belonged in the majors.

    By no means do I expect him to keep the pace of 2018. However, I don’t think a .270/350 line with 25 homers is far fetched.

    Can MLBTR provide us a daily update from The Steamer projection system? Recalculating each day for each team to factor in players being added onto and subtracted from the roster.

    That way we won’t have to watch those messy games with the silly baserunning, cutoff men (whatever that means), hitting to the wrong field when the defense is positioned on the other side, sliding, and all that nonsense about which team won the game.

    We’re intelligent baseball fans. We want to know how fast the pitcher throws his pitches, how many bats he misses, how many pitches the batter sees – and how all this stuff affects our fantasy league teams.

    Enquiring minds want to know.

      Do you think Bird as a headliner would have been more attractive to Arizona than what they got? A top catching prospect, a pitcher with a lot of control that has had success at the MLB level and an infield prospect that has power. Bird would not have headlined any trade, let alone one for an all star.

    If you voted over .800, look at his minor league numbers. Players average .52 points lower in the majors than they produced in the minors and he averaged .829.

    If you are even looking at his 143 AB in the majors and think that is any indication of what he will do in the future you are relying on too small of a sample size.

    Figure somewhere around .775-.780 which is still above average IF he gets enough at bats. Chances are Andujar is the starting 1B most of the season.

    Bird will reclaim the job, or NY will be out hunting again by end of July.

    Read what the author wrote…scepticism.

    Others have posted here and given ample reason, as well.

    Anybody making decisions for an MLB ballclub should have doubts. Obviously his former team did. They almost gave him away.

    Anyone who isn’t skeptical, shouldn’t be making those decisions.

    I don’t think that Voit will keep up his ridiculous offense throughout 2019; I do however think that he will be a very productive player, if given the chance to play everyday in NY.
    He has done everything he needs to do in order to start the season in the lineup everyday as the 1b/DH. Maybe Greg Bird could benefit from a change of scenery, but NY is clearly not going to work for him.

    I think he’ll be alright. I do not believe he can keep up the pace he set. I say .260 hitter with 25+ bombs, maybe 30. Unsure how his OBP will look, he is still very young and the Yankees havent had him for long. Its very possible that his walk rate increases with a more patient approach that a lot of the Yankees hitters possess. that is, of course, if the yankees dont end up platooning him with Bird and it ends up working so they keep the platoon. It could be very possible that Bird has a great spring while Voit has a questionable one so they start the season out with a platoon with the intention of keeping the hotter hitter but both end up performing similarly to one another so they just keep it the rest of the season. Thats a scenario i see happening. Of course, there is the scenario that Bird disappoints again and Voit gets the majority of the playing time.

      We can all agree that we have to wait and see with Voit. But with respect to his walk rate it’s been around 10% in his minor league career and in his brief mlb time it’s been at 10.6% too.

        Thats a good walk rate. I just dont know where exactly I would predict his walk rate to be this season given the fact that he is working with new hitting coaches. Yankees hitting coaches of late seem to have a knack in improving their players approach/walk rate. Just look at players like Hicks and Gardner. You can even look at Bird. Obviously he is not making a lot of contact (and not very hard contact either, which may or may not be attributed to injuries) but he walked at a good clip last year and saw a lot of pitches if he didnt. Voit being with the Yankees for a small amount of time means they couldnt tinker with him much. Im just wondering what changes, if any, we will see out come April.

    And no, I would not berate you, i’d have you go scroll up and re-read the rude comments he kept making, aimed at me.

    Fair enough?

      Maybe try the reply button so your post is attached to the post you are replying to.
      Also, why the paragraph break after every sentence/couple of sentences? Not that its especially important or anything, but the formatting just makes this post come across as super sluggish almost like you are trying to come across more dramatically. I just dont get why people feel the need to format like this? Maybe its just a pet peeve of mine and im nitpicking

    I can’t believe you’d even direct a post at me saying that.

    For one, I hardly ever post. Maybe two times a week…maybe.

    I ALWAYS stay on topic. Only baseball. I actually make it a point not to engage in these stupid exchanges.

    So…I just say i’m not gonna tolerate it, and it’s a problem?

    If so…it’s YOUR problem.

    I won’t be talked to out of line by not ONE of you. Much less let y’all gang up like y’all do on Xabial. If I were a moderator, i’d flag you all over it.

    We’re here to talk baseball…particularly, Luke Voit, in this thread…nothing else is of any consequence.

      You’ve posted 25+ times on this thread, most of which have nothing to do with baseball. I won’t continue to engage with this, I’m just hoping you realize that ceasing to reply to or acknowledge nonsense on an anonymous message board is always the best move.

      All the best, bud.

    25 on this thread. THIS thread.

    And to prove a point…

    Too many come on here and act ridiculous, get off topic, start running their mouths…

    That’s not what we’re here for.

    And it’s time somebody told you all.

    I have no problem playing the villain.

    Yankees fan perspective here and this is how I sum up Voit:

    1. Flash in the pan
    2. Platoon type player
    3. A short term solution

    Definitely not something worth a whole article on MLBTR or anywhere else that matter. Please find something else to write about besides Machado, Harper, or this insignificant BS.

    Spacing your paragraphs is called good writing.

    It gets all jumbled and sloppy-looking when no spaces are used.

    Now you’re critiquing people’s writing styles???

    Man…some of you people…i’m sorta reading your stuff in disbelief.

      I’d recommend at least 3 sentences to consider it a paragraph. That’s the minimum I instruct my students to use. Sentences followed by paragraph breaks read more like a list. But, no, it obviously doesn’t matter. Just a tip for future “good writing.”

      Spacing out paragraphs is good writing. However, you dont even write a paragraph worth of words before you hit the enter button two times. Spacing out each sentence or couple of sentences is not good writing.

      As i type this out i realize that this has to be an elaborate troll. Good on ya m8 you got me

    L-O-L, dude, you’re a Lit teacher, you criticize MY writing style, but NO PARAGRAPH BREAKS doesn’t bother you from the other 99.9%?!?

      It was mentioned by another, and I thought I could offer some advice to clear up the confusion. Now notice how your criticism of me won’t result in a deluge of inane responses on my end. Goodnight, good luck, and happy fighting the invisible people.

    Good luck Luke Voit!!! That’s another screw up by The Cardinals front office!! President of Baseball Operations only goes by meterics. He doesn’t know good talent when he see it. Voit was much better both offensively and defensively than Matt Carpenter. But….Mozeliak never gave Voit an honest chance. Prove Mozeliak is wrong again Luke Voit!!! The Cardinals fans miss you and wish you well!!!!!

      Are you sure you’re talking about the St. Louis Cardinals? I’m not sure you’ve ever actually seen them. You must be talking about your local little league team and the President of Baseball Snack Operations.

      Paul Goldschmidt. Don’t think too many Cardinals fans are going to worry about Luke Voit this year

    I don’t necessarily know, but it seemed like just from watching his highlights last year that he benefitted greatly from the really short right field in Yankee Stadium. Take 4 or so home runs that would not have travelled out at a normal ballpark and add them to the total and on such a small sample size the numbers start coming back down to earth. He flew out to right field a lot when he played here, and I suspect that a change of scenery plus an easy right field contributed to a lot of his success last year.

    It is Voit’s position to lose. Maybe Bird coming to camp without a guaranteed job will light a fire.

      I’d have to agree with this. Based off the incredible pace Voit set for himself I think there is a high chance that his regression will end up disappointing people even if his numbers are still decent. I guess what I am saying is that it wont take much to lose his job, even if he puts up replacement level numbers.

    I think the Yankees should do everything they can to trade for a 1B. Belt would be a good fit lefty bat decent glove. Contract is high maybe Giants would look to deal him. Send back California boy Bird to San Fran with a minor league SP.

      Are you kidding Brandon Belt? bring that albatross of a 78 million dollar contract? The Yankees don’t want to bring Machado or Harper in for 78 Million they sure as heck don’t want Belt He didn’t even hit as many home runs as Voit did with Belt had almost 3 times the AB as Voit who did so for 550 K a year. The Yankees are trying to maintain some kind of youth not turn the Yankees into some kind of a veteran mans softball beer league.

      I agree Bird is not been any surprise package but your in fantasy land the Yankees will be taking on 78 million dollar contract

        Belt’s contract is 16 million and 14.5 million towards salary cap.

          In 2017 Belt signed a contract thru 2021, 5 yrs/$72.8M (17-21) hence it’s a 72,8 Million plus contract like I said. It is a complete over pay for what Yankees can get with 100 free agents left on the market at discount prices.

          They have a guy named Luke Voit at 550 K hit better then Belt did despite Belt had 3 times the AB then Voit. Belts numbers are regressing not improving the last 2 years. The Yankees would be fools to take on this contract

          end of story Cashman doesn’t want to give Machado or Harper 2 years 70 million for their talent Yankees have no desire for Belt

    Yankees can put Voit, Wilson or even Spaulding and first base this year and he will hit 20+ HRs playing in Yankees Stadium over a full season!

    The AL East should be a blast this season. Yankees & Rays have improved while the Red Sox may have taken a small step backwards, but if the Sox can add one more decent BP arm, they should still be favorites to win the division. It’s going to be fun to watch; that’s for sure!
