Hey, I 've been looking at a bunch of baseball statistic websites lately and I've been looking up zone ratings. Now, I understand what they mean for the most part (I think) but I've noticed the ratings are different at every site I go to. For example, one website has Matt Kemp with one of the lowest zone ratings in baseball while another has him in the top 5. Is their one that is actually really accurate? I would appreciate the help a bunch.

The problem with Uggla is that his hits have been meaningless all year. High leverage situations: .210/.337/.309 (.645 .OPS) Medium leverage situations: .203/.304/.391 (.696 .OPS) High leverage situations: .265/.371/.537 (.908 .OPS) Overall, his stats (while disappointing) are still fine...especially considering the position he plays. The problem is he's not getting it done when it counts. And as diehard fans, that's not what we want to see. Especially considering he's hitting 5th now. Could I ask where you found those detaied stats at? I've been trying to find detailed stats like that for the longest time and hve had absolutely no luck. Have you tried Baseballreference.com? Oh ok thanks. I checked that site earlier but didn't search deep enough but I got it now lol. May I ask what leverage situations mean? http://www.fangraphs...leverage-index/ Ah ok got it. Thanks man.

I would have started Gload over Bonifacio. Why not use that hot bat until it goes cold? I don't see the point in benching a guy who's 8 of his last 14. That would have required Fredi to play Coghlan in the infield. Does he have any intention of that? He has one game, resting Uggla. Seriously, why hasn't CC seen more time there? Seems to me a late game Carroll to OF, Coghlan at 2B/3B would be a reasonable move to make. Yet not once. They could have put Gload at 1st base and moved Helms to 3rd. It doesn't really matter now though. I'd actually like to see CC play 3rd instead of Bonifacio while moving Carroll to the OF full time.

I agree that Baker is the perfect man for the #2 spot. Him and Coughlan getting on regularly for the 3, 4, and 5 hitters would be a thing of beauty. I just wish Fredi would pull the trigger already and make Baker the permanent #2 hitter and at the very least move Boner down in the lineup.

I'd only play Boner against lefties. He's hitting .313 against them and he's had pretty good success stealing against them. Ah forget it. I'd just bring up Gaby and have him play 1st and move Cantu to 3rd. Sure, Cantu isn't good defensivly at 3rd, but he's no worse at 3rd than Boner and I'm willing to bet Gaby would produce more than Boner offensively.

Poor guy. I really hope he gets his career back on track. He had some good season's in South Florida and was very popular.

they also sent samardzija to AAA; i wonder why though, did he have a bad spring because samardzija was pretty good last season as a bullpen arm. Yeah, he was roughed up all throughout spring training. I heard he should be back in the majors by May though.

To be fair, Gregg came in with 2 on and nobody out. The guy who deserves most of the blame is Neal Cotts...or maybe Lou Piniella for sticking with Cotts for more than 1 inning. I thought he should have brought in Sean Marshall in the 10th.
