    think of a chain.. Protection = slg % spike = BB % spike = KEMvP = 17 WAR.. see how evolution works..

    Also it has gone unnoticed but this home plate umpire has been horrible.

    Still so confusing. Freeman's SLG by month in 2016:

    April/March .407
    May .427
    June .654
    July .550
    August .688
    Sept/Oct .673

    His walk rate by month:

    Mar/Apr 12.6 %
    May 7.4 %
    Jun 11.5 %
    Jul 9.8 %
    Aug 20.2 %
    Sept/Oct 15.1 %

    So his SLG spiked in June before Kemp got to Atlanta. Kemp was then traded to Atlanta at the beginning of August, and Freeman's SLG stayed up, but his BB% spiked. Freeman is still walking 16% of the time while being protected by Kemp.

    Protection is too confusing for me to grasp.

    When you are KEMvP you have powers that no one can grasp. don't try to understand them.. just bask in his greatness please.

    Remember when the posi-Braves thought this was a .500 or better team?

    They are so adorable!

    Remember when you predicted 76-78 wins? Don't re-write your prediction now

    Whoa now.. depends on what your definition of .500 is... that is subjective you know.

    Us smart posi-braves said 'we are a .500 team. and are already right. I believe we were 6-6.. When you throw out a win total, you can't create fuzzy math to hide behind like I can..

    Do I have to be a bigot to join, or could I just do other Southern things like lose a few teeth, get fat, get poor, get addicted to opioids, and have sex with a family member?

    Homey, I live in SC and that's just a Tuesday. Saturday night, there's domestic violence and somebody gets locked up.
