April 10, 201610 yr Short one with only four games (and 3 losses to boot) but its a Sunday tradition. Pick the "Best" Marlin of the week. Stats at many places if you need them.
April 10, 201610 yr Mike Dunn, one week into the season and he hasn't blown any games or pissed any of us off. That's gotta be some kind of record
April 10, 201610 yr yelich had an incredible week. Dee's 2 CS should really exclude him and he really needs to stop trying to steal. Bravo to Phelps & TK though. Goats of the weak are Ozuna and the bullpen
April 10, 201610 yr Gordon will being the spark that he is and I like yelich. mathis contributed well and so did dunn. bullpen and ozuna are serious problems, I'm with polly on this one.
April 10, 201610 yr Author yelich is locked in right now and seeing the strike zone ridiculously well He'd be a cool #2 hitter
April 11, 201610 yr yelich had an incredible week. Dee's 2 CS should really exclude him and he really needs to stop trying to steal. Bravo to Phelps & TK though. Goats of the weak are Ozuna and the bullpen He needs to work on his leads and when to run but he led the majors in steals last year. He isn't going to stop trying. Nor should he really.
April 11, 201610 yr He needs to work on his leads and when to run but he led the majors in steals last year. He isn't going to stop trying. Nor should he really. He needs to work on his jumps, really. I haven't seen really but about 1 1/8 of games so far, but I'd be willing to bet he's still stealing by pushing off of his trail leg rather than crossing over with it. If he fixes that, he could probably steal 80+, no lie.
April 11, 201610 yr He needs to work on his leads and when to run but he led the majors in steals last year. He isn't going to stop trying. Nor should he really. Dee stealing bases hurts the team more than it helps. The break even point is 70 to 75%. He was like 65% last year. I get that it's fun and exciting but it's actually hurting the team

Goats of the weak are Ozuna and the bullpen Felt like the CS from yesterday was a hit and run and a sign was missed by Yelich. Regardless it was an awful jump. I voted Dee Gordon but Yelich has looked great.

I get that it's fun and exciting but it's actually hurting the team It needs to be worked on. It can't be scrapped. It's too useful of an asset if you get it working properly. Last year he stole 58 bases in 78 attempts. That's 74 percent. Year before he stole 64 in 83 attempts that's 77 percent. It isn't hurting the team and it can help significantly more if he improves which there's no reason why he can't.

MATH RULES!!!!
April 11, 201610 yr [uSER=5078]@pollyvonwog[/uSER] I used a calculator. I would have never figured it out otherwise.

April 11, 201610 yr Author Fish of the Week Dee Gordon is the default background here now. May he bring us good luck.
April 11, 201610 yr Author I voted for David Phelps, Here's Why You are dedicated, everyone else here is lazy. Voting without writing a story to defend it.

April 12, 201610 yr He'd be a cool #2 hitter While I agree. I really like him in the 3 hole in front of Stanton. I think we should try to find someone to replace Ozuna with in the 2 that isn't named Yelich.
