I wonder if maybe runners didn't challenge Buxton a lot when he was younger because he had a cannon and ran like crazy on Revere because he didn't. Don't know the numbers on that, but if anything would be a safe bet....

Actually, 98 pitches to 27 hitters works out to just over 3.6 pitches per hitter.

Can anyone explain why Byron is batting leadoff while on a 50 hr, 79 rbi pace? He must lead the club in on base pct. No, that would be Martin at a .464 mark (Buxton is a very pedestrian. 307, actually 7th on the team) and he hits third? For a team that needs every run it can scrape up this, to me, is insane. There, I just thought someone should state the obvious. Other than this glaring error I do prefer Shelton over Baldelli, but please fix it yesterday.
