    nice list. it would be interesting to correlate these numbers with “runs scored.”

    if casilla sticks, he could be huge.

    Two stolen bases by Chris Duffy tonight gives him three in the last week. He’s also hitting .292/.361/.415 at the top of the Pirates lineup.

    Matsui’s one of the guys I featured in my article about sleepers coming off the DL. He’s going to have a better year than most people expect.
