Atlanta Braves Clippings Monday, October 19, 2015 Fox Sports Atlanta Braves Clippings Monday, October 19, 2015 Fox Sports Short Hops: Braves second basemen review/preview Zach Dillard FOXSportsSouth.com's team of Braves writers are taking a look back at 2015, position by position, and breaking down what we know heading into what figures to be another busy offseason. The focus here, second base. STATS THAT MATTER 20: Jace Peterson finished his rookie season with 20 weighted runs created after the All-Star break, the second-lowest mark among all qualified MLB second basemen. 1.1: Peterson wrapped up the '15 season with a 1.1 WAR, making him the first Braves second baseman to be worth more than one win above replacement since Dan Uggla's 19-homer 2012 season. 186: The Atlanta Braves led the majors with 186 total double plays this season. Though Peterson was not among MLB's top fielding second basemen, in terms of defensive runs saved, he and shortstop Andrelton Simmons were a formidable combo up the middle for most of the season. THREE KEY QUESTIONS 1. Has Jace Peterson ended the franchise's revolving door at second base? Elliot Johnson, Tyler Pastornicky, Phil Gosselin, Tommy La Stella, Ramiro Pena ... the list continues. Over the past two seasons, the Braves second- base spot has experienced constant turnover — an overflow of near-replacement level production in the aftermath of Dan Uggla's late-career decline. Atlanta attempted to plug this hole by handing Alberto Callaspo a stop-gap $3 million contract at last year's Winter Meetings, but it was the acquisition of unheralded rookie Jace Peterson — a secondary piece in the Justin Upton trade, behind top prospect Max Fried — that did the trick. For a while, at least. Peterson stole the show in spring training and stormed out of the gate for the Braves, even filling the leadoff spot at times. By the time the All-Star break rolled around, his bat had cooled off, but he was still tied with outfielder Nick Markakis in WAR (0.9) and was holding his own in his first full season. The good times faded in the second half, though. The 25-year-old ended his campaign hitting .221/.293/.319 after the break, watching as fellow rookie Daniel Castro began stealing starts down the team's forgettable stretch. So what does Peterson's quiet second half mean? All told, he's the most promising second-base option the team has had since Uggla's bat was producing. He hasn't even reached arbitration and the physical tools are present and accounted for. And with the Braves sending former top prospect Jose Peraza to the Dodgers in the Hector Olivera trade, the farm system isn't exactly overflowing with challengers. Peterson is the Braves' best option at the moment, and there are bigger issues plaguing the team. If the team elects to devote its money and attention elsewhere this offseason, leaving the job to Peterson (or another player within the organization if necessary) in the short term, it would be understandable. As the 2014 season can attest, it could be much worse. 2. How many below-average hitters can this lineup afford? The Braves have been baseball's lowest-scoring team over the past two seasons, and, in terms of Peterson, it brings up the question of just how many defense-first players one team can start. The narrative for players like Andrelton Simmons and Christian Bethancourt follows a similar path — the "whatever you get with the bat is gravy" plan — so if Peterson's offense does not revert back to its first-half form, it calls into question whether the middle of this lineup can support another shaky bat. It couldn't in 2015. Simmons is already locked into the starting lineup and if Bethancourt finally seizes the catcher job, that could mean one-third of the lineup is devoted primarily to defense. Peterson wrapped up his rookie year with an 80 weighted runs crated plus, with 100 wRC+ being league average. He did not hit for enough power to support a .314 on-base percentage, and his 12 steals did not line up with his minor-league rates or athleticism. Again, the physical tools are there for him to develop into a quality major-league player. The Braves can probably afford to wait for another season to see if he starts to reach his potential, but if this middle infield doesn't start hitting — Simmons is not entirely exempt here, either — Atlanta will likely have to address the issue before moving into SunTrust Park. 3. Will the Braves be active in the free-agent market in search of a potential upgrade? The need for more offensive production at second is not an exclusive problem. Similar to the catcher position, where Bethancourt's struggles have the team scouring a shallow market and weighing its options on 38-year-old veterans like A.J. Pierzynski or exploring trades for a possible solution, finding a quality bat at second can be difficult. Still, there are options, depending on the Braves' willingness to spend. Ben Zobrist, the 34-year-old utility guru coming off his worst season in seven years, is a top-of-the-market option in free agency, right alongside the likes of Daniel Murphy (Mets), Asdrubal Cabrera (Rays) and Howie Kendrick (Dodgers), each of whom could provide an upgrade offensively. Two- time former Braves utility man Kelly Johnson, who the Braves traded to the Mets along with Juan Uribe at the midseason deadline, is another option here. The team could also gamble on low-cost, underperforming former first-round picks like Gordon Beckham — a local product — or Stephen Drew. Again, unless the team swings for a coveted free agent like Zobrist, it might be best-served to sit tight with Peterson and trust in his development. The Marietta Daily Journal Keys to getting to and from the Braves’ new ‘Battery’ The Braves’ SunTrust Park and accompanying live-work-play neighborhood is filling in and taking shape. On Wednesday, team executives released more details of who and what will be part of the new Cumberland community. The mixed-use development next to the ballfield will be known as The Battery Atlanta and will include a range of restaurants from pizza places to barbecue diners to steak houses. Five restaurants were named Wednesday and there’s still spots remaining. Braves chairman and CEO Terry McGuirk said, “We have 40 restaurants chasing 20 spots.” This on top of the already announced nine-story Comcast office tower, a hotel from Omni Hotels & Resorts and The Roxy, an entertainment venue with capacity for 4,000 patrons. The Battery seems to be living up to its billing — not an easy task in light of the descriptions bandied about by developers and Braves’ execs. They’ve called it a place with its own “heartbeat” and “vibe” that will be occupied by “blue chip brands” everyone knows, all next to the “crown jewel” of the project — SunTrust Park. An aerial rendering released by the Braves shows the ballpark and the mixed-use development. Identifiable are retail shops, apartments with amenity pool, parking garages and the pedestrian bridge connecting the development to The Galleria across Interstate 285. But the question on most minds remains accessibility. The good news is that the state of Georgia recently agreed to help Cobb County fund 11 transportation projects, many of which surround SunTrust Park. Those projects include intersection improvements, road upgrades and realignments, new roads, pedestrian paths and sidewalks. Also, Cobb commissioners last week approved a $200,000 study of pedestrian traffic in Cumberland and the SunTrust Park area. The goal is to add or improve pedestrian paths to better integrate vehicular and foot traffic. The Braves’ plans call for 6,000 parking spaces for the 41,500-seat stadium, but that was when a bridge for walkers, cyclers and shuttle bus service was still front and center. The bridge would span Interstate 285 and connect the development to the Galleria area. The project is now on hold as stakeholders take another look at design and landing and launching points. The delays will prevent the bridge’s completion in time for 2017’s opening day. Without that access point, parking adjustments could be in order. The Braves are expected to announce their parking plan in the next few months. Cost estimates for the bridge vary, but Cobb Chairman Tim Lee is clear that regardless of the final cost, county taxpayers are only on the hook for $9 million — monies expected to come from SPLOST funds and federal dollars. In a statement released this month, Lee said, “Even if the bridge costs $100 million, the cost to Cobb County will not exceed $9 million. Period. I have also consistently stated that any additional costs will be covered by our many public and private partners.” Who those partners are is not clear. Candidates include the Cobb Marietta Coliseum and Exhibit Hall Authority, Cumberland Community Improvement District, Galleria Office Park property manager Childress Klein and the Braves themselves. Each of these stakeholders would see benefits from a Galleria-SunTrust Park connector. None more than the Braves. Now comes District 2 Commissioner Bob Ott who says the bridge as it is now being described may not be the best way to connect. He suggests the study mentioned above might lead to a completely different solution. The need for access is undebatable. A “crown jewel” is no good if you can’t get to it. A 2014 Atlanta Regional Commission traffic study memorandum reports that without the bridge and circulator buses “approximately 16,000 people will be required to cross Cobb Parkway to access the site.” That’s a recipe for pedestrian danger and traffic delays.

    MEDIA CLIPS – February 3, 2017 Young arms among Rockies' camp invites Veteran batters Denorfia, Reynolds also on non-roster list By Thomas Harding / MLB.com | @harding_at_mlb | February 2nd, 2017 DENVER -- Two fast-rising pitching prospects, right-hander Ryan Castellani and lefty Sam Howard, will make their first appearances in Major League camp this spring for the Rockies, who announced their non-roster invitees on Thursday. The group includes veterans Chris Denorfia, a right-handed-hitting outfielder, andMark Reynolds, who was the Rockies' primary first baseman last year. In all, the Rockies invited 22 players, including nine pitchers, to bring the total number to 62. Pitchers and catchers will have their first workout on Feb. 14, and the initial full-squad workout is Feb. 20. Castellani, who turns 21 on April 1, is a 2014 second-round pick out of Brophy College Preparatory in Phoenix. He went 7- 8 with a 3.81 ERA and 142 strikeouts in 167 2/3 innings last season at Class A Advanced Modesto against older competition in the California League. Howard, who turns 24 on March 5, was drafted a round after Castellani out of Georgia Southern. Howard went 9-9 with a 3.35 ERA, and fanned 140 in 156 innings. In the latest ranking of top 30 Rockies prospects by MLBPipeline.com, Castellani was No. 12 and Howard was 20th. While non-roster invitations give the Rockies a chance to look at highly touted prospects before the Minor League season, this group also includes players who could help the big squad beginning on Opening Day -- especially pitchers.

  • Weekly Notes 072817
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).
