Despite what the formula says his defense has been just fine thisbyear. Not good of course but certainly not costing us games.

Four Braves HBP in six innings. Are we playing baseball or dodgeball?
Brain cramp...who have our recent cleanup hitters been and have any been better in that role than Kemp?
JUp
Their starter kept throwing horrible curveballs at our guys and they didn't flinch.
He was better in the 2-hole.
Didn't he leave two or three years ago? I never remember him hitting in mid .300s this late in the year.
Eh... better defender obviously... but streakier and more inconsistent hitter
Unfortunately, that was bad Swanson there.
But still better
Remember when Smoak was the next Mark Texeira? At least he's finally started to become a decent hitter thanks to Toronto's hitting factory.
I hope Adonis can just catch fire so we can trade him to a contending team desperate for 3rd base help in a couple months.
Overall player wasn't the question though... better as a clean-up hitter was the question... JUp is not.
We could be the beat the streak stopper. All eyes on Carrera
That's nuts
Kemp has a 130 ops+ as a brave. Upton had a 129 ops+ I'd wager a bet that Kemp won't be that high at seasons end.
Yeah, but how much of that was Upton hitting in the 4 hole? I seem to remember him doing his best hitting outside of the 4 hole.
The HBP count is now up to five. Don't know that i've seen that previously. Oddly, it seems to be wildness rather than maliciousness on the part of Toronto pitchers.
