    He's their second best hitter.

    It is probably just observational bias at work but it seems to me the first game back guys seem to do well then they fall back where you expect to see them. I wonder if it could be adrenaline or maybe they are fully rested that first day then start wearing down? Probably nothing to it.

    They might not have been big recruits but Smith and Francis sure went high in the draft. And yes Gary did refuse to play the AAU game.

    Maryland did win a title in that period. Not sure how many titles a program like Maryland is supposed to win in that time span. One seems pretty fair to me, maybe two.

    I saw yesterday's third at bat this morning. He looks fine at the plate but I can't say he exactly squared up the pitch. It was a little bloop but it counts. On a side note the Astros' defense is going to put a lot of pressure on the pitching staff.

    Now can we move all further Markakis threads (up until he enters the Orioles' HoF) to the MLB board?

    He is projected to have the second highest OPS on the Braves. (130 odd points lower then Freeman) http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/instagraphs/2015-offensive-projections-interactive/

    I remember it being somewhere near the ASB in 2005 and thinking "If we can just play .500 here on out the Yankees will have a hard time catching us.".

    So did Nolan.

    I don't have the drive professional athletes have. I would retire rather then risk further injury. Not the neck or head. Possibly not the back.

    Fusion isn't a happy word.

    I am in the camp that doesn't expect Cruz to match his 2014 production going forward.

    Who exactly thinks WAR is the be all end all? I love the hyperbole on the other side of the argument.

    I am hopeful we can plug Wieters in.
  18. Can_of_corn
    And Pearce.

    Love this line.

    Why does Reimold not count as an injury for the O's?
