    He's had a really good spring.

    Riley has an interesting swing. I can see why KLaw complains about bat speed but I don't think bat speed is actually a problem. His swing isn't compact but in a way too short a look at it, it doesn't seem slow.

    I still think Glaus' swing is the best comp but I'll throw Nelson Cruz out too. Not saying he's got the ability of either, just the bigger body slugger with the longer swing reminds me of them.

    Whoever decided we should have replay in ST games should be launched into the sun.

    Looks like Dansby made a small tweak to his stance/swing.

    Really interested to see if the Statcast data supports the reports of Wilson having improved secondaries.

    I can't wait to see new statcast data on him after spending a year working with the Braves new analytics department. The addition of a SI and SL/FC could be a game changer for Fried with the 94+ velocity and that plus or better CU he already has.

    Liked Fried since we traded for him. I hope he comes out and locks down his spot in the rotation.

    Eh. He's gone from overrated to probably now underrated, but let's not get carried away. We now have 4 years of him simply being mediocre to pretty good.
    "Acuna is getting lucky, just like CJ did when he batted .321 and won a batting title. He is unlikely to get lucky at the MLB level over an extended period of time. He will settle in around .300-.320 just like everyone else, and when he does, he won't be within shouting distance of the 1.000 OPS he is posting in AAA...more like low .700s in 2018." -Enscheff 8/25/17
