Close tho. Upton is:
Age 26, 79 Runs, 23 HR, 80 RBI, 14 SB, .271/.350/.458, 3.9 WAR
Comps: Barry Bonds, Kal Daniels, Joe Charboneau

Also, my buddy got 100/1 odds in Vegas for Upton to win the home run title this year.

that shot at Tradition Field in Port St Lucie was beast. Even in the video you have no idea just how far that ball goes. Was there last week for a Mets/Braves game.

You can put all the fancy shmancy stats and data on the screen that you want but none of it will change the fact that Reed Johnson fucking sucks

I figured that after you showed the Upton line. Post Brendan Ryan's. Dude has to be projected for a .150 BA.

Age 32, 34 R, 4 HR, 28 RBI, 8 SB, .231/.294/.324, 1.5 WARP
Comp: Tony Fernandez, Nick Punto, Tony Graffanino

His Fielding Runs Above Average (FRAA), which quantifies defense and impacts WARP, is projected to be 10. That's pretty fucking good. Andrelton Simmons on the other hand is 26.5. Jeter is -5

Too soon to say that he's OK. He's gonna need scans and tests before he's cleared

Yea bro cuz McCarthy was fine after the exact same thing happened to him. I mean, odds are you're right, but it's unreasonable to just dismiss something like this

Please. This is the same guy who was scared to move from the closer to a starter role.
Bet he misses the rest of the season.
Video of this shit is horrifying.
