July 31, 201411 yr Yeah, so maybe making comparisons to Hall of Famers is just a little bit ridiculous, absurd, crazy, and non-sensical. I mean, you mention the age 26 season but fail to compare their age 25 seasons. Boggs only hit .361/.444/.486/.931 and had a K/BB of 0.39 (which is a BB/K of 2.555555555555555555). He compares more favorably to Bill Mueller, if anyone. That's not a bad thing.
July 31, 201411 yr Gillaspie is sitting today. Lefty starter, Gillaspie, Dunn and DeAza all sitting today.

August 1, 201411 yr If my math is correct, he'll need 6 PAs after tonight, 9 after tomorrow night, and 12 after Sunday night.
August 2, 201411 yr He did it. Conor Gillaspie is now qualified for the batting title race. Edited August 2, 201411 yr by Jose Abreu
