Players you think will get downgraded

[thekidisback]

Machado and Britton are not having good years. They are not diamond players so far but continue to be diamonds. When do you think they go gold? I think Machado stays Diamond because of his track record but I could see Britton getting downgraded if he continues to not dominate. Miguel Cabrera should also get downgraded to gold. What players do you think should or will?

Re: Players you think will get downgraded

I see Machado staying Diamond because he had a monster July.
DeGrom may go Diamond within the next two weeks.
Not sure what more Charlie Blackmon needs to do to go diamond--dude's got a 376/448/710 over the past 30 days.
Hosmer another candidate to return to Gold; he's been on fire since an abysmal start

I don't see Judge/Bellinger moving past gold-- Judge's strikeout rate will probably keep his contact/vision lower, while Bellinger's avg and K rate cap his contact and vision

Donaldson should go down to gold, as he's had an abysmal start to the second half, and a mediocre season overall. But who knows if they want to downgrade cover athletes that severely.

Cabrera, probably. I know he's an all-time great. But he's sucked this year. It's due.
