    Billy has been good at not getting out on the bases since the break.... Of course he's only reached base twice

    I´m not a fan of aggressive (sometimes dumb) baserunning and I doubt I ever will...

    Yeah but it's also hard to get 3 hits in a inning fot this team. Really a no win situation.

    Cozart is a real difficult case. Looks like a GG year at shortstop, whether he actually wins it or not.

    Still, 550 to 600 PAs at .552 OPS is tough for any lineup in the NL.


    This is the same thing we at least expected from Jackie H....... at least SOME of what he used to produce.

    Walt has to be the unluckiest GM in baseball to keep signing these guys as they are about to fall into the abyss. I mean even Wilson valdez got worse than before.

    Only Miguel Cairo has worked out X 10 for him. Pena as well, although not as much but still good there.

    Santiago is fine.... Higher OPS and can actually play defense

    Good call. I forgot about him. We thought he would be almost Wilson Valdez Part II, but he actually deserves more PT than Cozart. Skip deserves none and his True Grit needs to be put to rest.

    Partly the reason to be more aggressive on the bases.
