    Big opportunity here for Bruce.

    I'd like to see a big fly here.

    Quality Starts (NL)

    18 Adam Wainwright
    18 Mat Latos
    18 Wade Miley
    17 Mike Leake
    17 Mark Buehrle
    17 Jeff Samardzija
    16 Lance Lynn
    15 Roy Halladay

    Just to put things into perspective. And that's our number FIVE starter. He's WELL above average for back end starters.
    There are many ways to skin this one, but that is interesting.

    Desmond 'Encarnacions' the throw to first. I like it.

    Bruce flies out to left and Phillips has to stay at 2nd.

    Honestly, I thought he was better defensively at 1B last year, but I could see it. Maybe even a Silver Slugger, too.
    Arise and walk, come through. A world beyond that door is calling out for you. Arise and walk, come through. It's calling out for you.

    Useless at-bat.

    This is what normally happens to a team that stinks in situational hitting after a night in which multiple balls left the yard and we just hit 'em where they ain't. Law of averages governs baseball.

    Frazier continues to roll. Double to the wall in left. 2-1 Nationals.

    How many teams have above avg pitchers across the board? How many get Leake's production in the 5 spot at his price?

    Leake likely wont cost this team a WS. They have the horses to make the playoffs with or without him and, if they get there, he likely won't see the mound unless something goes wrong or he turns it up a few notches.

    Man, is Frazier dialed in...love that guy..

    My friends laughed when I drafted him in our fantasy league.

    Now if I just would have taken Chris Davis..
