Perez OPSing over 800 in June, over 1.000 in his last 10. Five multiple hit games in his last 10 as well. Don't know if he's a SS as he moves up, but it looks like he can definitely play 2B. An almost 1:1 K:BB ratio, too.

Juan Silva's June looks awfully good too.

The youth in Dayton might need another half-season to fully blossom. Thankfully, most of that group is young enough that the extra half-season might not matter.

Remember last year when there was a debate as to if Billy Hamilton would get 100 steals? lol

I guarantee he doesn't get there.

I wonder what the error rate is on balls Hamilton hits and how that ranks against others in his league, etc?
