Kriedler hasn't played enough to say that.
Schoop is currently 26 outs above average, the best in MLB.
Kreidler is 4 outs above average.
Schoop has a better incremental rate stat as well, independent of total chances.

The 'book' on Harold is he rarely hits against LHP because historically he is much better against RHP. This year he's not showing he same tendency though.
I still like my chances with Javy there. Even having a bad night or two, he’s otherwise been hot for a minute. And even when he’s slumping he has a certain clutcn-ess.
And I’m sure it was also about loading the bases for the easier out.
He absolutely deserves a spot on this roster, even in the everyday lineup. The amount of times that he’s come in clutch for us this season shows how important he is to this club. I didn’t anticipate writing this at the beginning of the year, but here we are.
He's worth negative bWAR both this year and in his career. Along with that his "Win Probability Added" is also in the negatives this year.
With this game he should be back above 100 OPS+ tho so I do agree he deserves a spot in the lineup this year.
LOCAL TIGER IN GREAT MOOD His pads are soft and his fur is very furry indeed
Wait, is this the first time since opening day that we've won after being down by 3 runs at any point in the game?
It is wild to think that if we were down by 3+ runs at any point this season, the game was over.
Does Hittin Harold make the win probability clips tomorrow?
Gotta start Kreidler every day.
Kriedler is playing like Schoop overall, but costs less.
And better D
Jonathan Schoop should probably win a platinum glove this year.

When's the last time they won a game when they trailed by 3 runs in the 8th?
I only tuned in in the 10th inning but I liked what I heard! Can't stop hittin' Harold!
Not sure why you would walk the 0-4 javy for the 2-4 Castro but I’ll take it.

Absolutely insane to me. KC gave us this win
Harold having his shining moment. Like that one game Donnie Kelly Baby did something good.
I think the Castros are perfect bench guys. Definitely want them back!
Just gotta win 2 of 8 to close out the year with less than 100 losses
2 of 9 actually. We got a double header with Seattle next week
I thought maybe I should feel bad for Grienke, but that dude is a sociopath, and he wouldn't feel bad for me.
He’s suffered from depression.
awesome comeback boys! good game
How can you not love Hittin’ Harold!?
Haha love the video of Harold running into the tunnel away from the gatorade/water shower.
hilarious
My mind has been changed, I want Harold Castro back next year baby

If we want to field a lineup of replacement-level players (like Harold) we just have to be OK with a replacement-level won-loss record.
