8/24 GDT: Wednesday duel in the D-back desert; Teheran starts, Swanson sits

.747 ops last year

in the desert so league average. He's an exceptional player if he can become a league average hitter. Still young enough to grow.

As for the game, I wonder if Kemp has a better chance to throw out runner if he attempts to catch the ball on a short hop? He has no chance diving for the ball and getting up and throwing......Probably doesn't get runner either way though.

Looking forward to next year when he cares AND is in shape though.

Maybe, but it looks like inciarte is on his way to that ops again. Makes you wonder where it would be had he been healthy all season

I'd be interested. Dude has almost 15 more walks this year than last and we have a month or so left. His OBP is better almost the same as the last two as well.

To be blunt, he looks healthy and happy. He's not a butthole at all, but he looks happy to be a part of an organization that is trending upwards. lol
 
So, I didn't watch last night, but noticed that Whalen got a PH at bat but Swanson didn't play. so I ask, why did our pitcher with a bum shoulder hit and not our top prospect? was it a bunting situation?
