    @Ziggy used "bozo" in a thread recently, and it reminded me that I don't use that word enough

    Man Chaz just missed that. Crushed a liner in his first AB also

    It's like night and day versus lefties for him.

    Javier with his ERA below 3 again. Temporarily, at least. May this not be a jinx.

    Irvin is living a dangerous life, a lot of long flyouts today.

    Methinks there's certainly something to his mediocre xFIP.

    Yuli has had dWAR below replacement every year but his first. He isn't suddenly below replacement level. His pick ability just keeps him close, not well above average.

    I like him, but I just noticed he's been horrible with RISP for his career, for reasons I can't explain. He's also much, much better against +.500 teams than the unders. [I misread the B-R table]

    dWAR is a positionally adjusted stat.

    There's not a first baseman in the league that has a positive dWAR
