Around MLB 2017

Sorry guys. Forgot he was a former Brave.

Wood was AWFUL. Thank goodness Coppy got rid of him when he did for HO!

HO would have hit the ball if someone would have put lipstick on the damn ball. complete failure on the FO for not seeing that.

He should still be a Brave. And he's not been anywhere near what he was as a brave for LA.

While we are loving small samples where are all of the peraza lovers with his 550 OPS?

His time in LA last year before going down with an injury was really good. 3.18 FIP is pretty strong. I think his 4+ FIP in LA in 2015 is what's going to be the fluke. I suspect his FIP to be in the mid 3's this year.

Peraza will go as far as his contact ability lets him. He's not going to walk much which is bad. But he's not going to K much either which is good. His 280 BABIP will almost certainly be a lot higher as well. OPS won't be a true measure of his offensive ability as he will get a lot of value from his baserunning (assuming he can get on base).

I just try to use stats that thethe is familiar with. Yeah Wood did not have a good game at all. Lucky to give up just the 1 run he did.

He was lucky that heywood was up that last inning

Ryan Howard looks.....heavy

Why is there a Carolina Mudcats logo still up there.. Can someone not buy them a firefrog already..

 

[Hawk]

Maybe the firefrog is hard to illustrate because nobody knows what the **** it is.

Still no Kemp tonight.

This is one way to keep his DRS from declining

 

[thewupk]

Peraza at 0.4 bWAR so far. Speed and defense ftw!

Quintana continuing to have a rough start to the year.

Hopefully he continues to struggle and maybe we can get him cheaper

Wait I thought the whitesoxs where geniuses for the perfect rebuild.

Looks like Eric Thames has come back to MLB with a vengeance.

My fantasy team approves.

Thames got out of South Korea just in time. Kim Jong Un probably thought the rockets Thames launched playing in Korea was an actual military build-up. Good thing Thames' missiles go further than Un's.

Sterling Marte busted for PED.. 80 games. oops.
