15 GAMES Rhys Hoskins ...8 Carlos Delgado [PI: DN-PAGES-2--ADVANCE-3--SPORTS <ACZZ> ... 09/15/17] Author:VETRONB Date:09/15/17 Time:01:14 FOLLOW ALONG WITH RHYS’ PIECES Special thanks to the incredible play index at baseball-reference.com Despite having played only 34 games, we know that Rhys Hoskins (18 through Thursday) will hold at least a part of the major league record for home runs through a player’s first 44 games. He aleady owns (or co-owns) the records for 15 days up to that point. He could play as many as 50 games before his first major league season ends.

  • Ryan Braun's Positive Steroid Test OVERVIEW Ryan Braun Is A
    Ryan Braun’s Positive Steroid Test OVERVIEW Ryan Braun is a professional baseball player for the Milwaukee Brewers. After making his Major League debut in 2007, Braun went on to become one of baseball’s premier players. In 2011, Braun ascended to the top of the baseball world, winning the National League’s Most Valuable Player award for the excellent play he provided in leading the Brewers to their first division title in nearly 30 years (Jackson, 2011). In 2012, Ryan Braun signed a five year, $105 million contract extension that will keep him in a Brewers jersey until 2020 (Pierce, 2012). This move established Braun as the face of the Brewers franchise and as an unofficial spokesman for the entire state of Wisconsin. On Dec. 11, 2011, Braun tested positive for an elevated synthetic testosterone level just a few months removed from winning the MVP award (Nightengale, 2011). Major League Baseball bans its players from using performance-enhancing drugs and was set to suspend Braun for the first 50 games of the 2012 season (Fainuru-Wada & Quinn, 2011). Braun stated the positive result of the urine sample he gave was “BS” and that he would appeal the result through Major League Baseball’s players union (Nightengale, 2011). Braun won the appeal of his suspension on Feb. 24, 2012 (Pierce, 2012). His convincing argument centered on details of improper collection of his urine. The urine collector did not send Braun’s sample to the testing lab within the time allotted to do so. Many believed Braun got lucky because he did in fact have an illegal level of synthetic testosterone in his system.

Several were injured, and others have been getting needed development time in Triple-A. That's finally starting to change. With his "Super Two" status no longer a concern, pitching prospect Cody Reed was called up Saturday. Infielder Jose Peraza is back in the big leagues for the second time. Starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani has put an oblique injury behind him. Pitchers Michael Lorenzen and Raisel Iglesias could be ready in the near future. "It's exciting because this is what we've all talked about," Price said. "We've anticipated it would happen a little bit sooner. We didn't anticipate the health issues, and didn't think we'd come out of Spring Training with all the issues and injuries. I did anticipate we'd get to the point where these young guys would impact our ballclub, and begin to learn how to play at this level and find their way to success." More help could be coming. Pitcher Robert Stephenson, who already made two spot starts in the big leagues, is performing well at Triple-A Louisville with a 3.29 ERA in 11 starts.

    Atlanta Braves Clippings Wednesday, May 6, 2020 Braves.com Braves' Top 5 center fielders: Bowman's take By Mark Bowman No one loves a good debate quite like baseball fans, and with that in mind, we asked each of our beat reporters to rank the top five players by position in the history of their franchise, based on their career while playing for that club. These rankings are for fun and debate purposes only … if you don’t agree with the order, participate in the Twitter poll to vote for your favorite at this position. Here is Mark Bowman’s ranking of the top 5 center fielders in Braves history. Next week: Right fielders. 1. Andruw Jones, 1996-2007 Key fact: Stands with Roberto Clemente, Willie Mays and Ichiro Suzuki as the only outfielders to win 10 consecutive Gold Glove Awards The 60.9 bWAR (Baseball Reference’s WAR model) Andruw Jones produced during his 11 full seasons (1997-2007) with Atlanta ranked third in the Majors, trailing only Alex Rodriguez (85.7) and Barry Bonds (79.2). Chipper Jones was fourth at 58.9. Within this span, the Braves center fielder led all Major Leaguers with a 26.7 Defensive bWAR. Hall of Fame catcher Ivan Rodriguez ranked second with 16.5. The next closest outfielder was Mike Cameron (9.6). Along with establishing himself as one of the greatest defensive outfielders baseball has ever seen during his time with Atlanta, Jones became one of the best power hitters in Braves history. He ranks fourth in franchise history with 368 homers, and he set the club’s single-season record with 51 homers in 2005.

  • Baseball's Worst Team Fred Worth Department of Mathematics and Computer Science
    Academic Forum 21 2003-04 Baseball's Worst Team Fred Worth Department of Mathematics and Computer Science Abstract - In this paper we will look at some of the worst teams in baseball history and try to decide which team was indeed the worst. We will look at some statistics that will compare the teams to the teams of their day to try to account for the differences in eras. Introduction Much discussion is heard regarding who the best player, hitter, pitcher, etc. in baseball history may have been. There is not typically a lot of discussion on who the worst in any of these categories may be. The 2003 season changed that a little bit due to the incredible futility displayed by the Detroit Tigers. In this paper, we will look at some of the worst teams in baseball history and see if, indeed, the Tigers qualify. Preliminary Criteria The first consideration needs to be what criteria we will use to make our determination of the worst team. Certainly the teams win-loss record and winning percentage should be considered. Since the word "worst" implies a comparison, we should also look a how far the teams finished out of first place and, to see how truly bad they were, how far they finished behind the next-to- last-place team. Candidates The following table lists the teams we will consider for the designation as the worst team in baseball history. There have been other teams that were very bad. Obviously the choice of candidates is fairly arbitrary, however, most would agree that these nine teams were rather bad.
