San Diego Padres: 3 Players to Watch During Spring Training
San Diego Padres: 3 Players to Watch During Spring Training Author : Spring Training is upon us. Pitchers and catchers have reported, position players are filing in, and everyone is eager to hit the grind and get ready for Opening Day. After finishing dead last in the National League West last season, the San Diego Padres aren't expected to do much once again in 2017. That's not to say they don't have some exciting players to watch heading into the regular season. Here are three guys that stand out to me, and should have a lot of eyes on them as April approaches. 1. Manuel Margot: Last year, he started the Futures game for the World team at PetCo Park. This year, he might be taking the same field, except as a member of the San Diego Padres. Their home opener isn't until April 7th against the San Francisco Giants, but Margot will have his eyes on making the 25-man roster well before then. The 22-year-old excelled in Triple-A last season, slashing .304/.351/.426 and stealing 30 bags in 124 games. His performance earned him a September call-up, and he went on to play ten games with the Padres. He hit 1 / 2 .243 with a pair of steals in his first cup of coffee and showed off his game-changing speed in the outfield. With the Padres limited outfield depth, Margot has a good chance of winning a starting job this Spring and is hands down one of the top players to watch on the Padres. -

A POISSON MODEL FOR “HITTING FOR THE CYCLE” IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL by Paul M. Sommers Christopher J. Teves Joseph T. Burchenal And Daniel M. Haluska March 2010 MIDDLEBURY COLLEGE ECONOMICS DISCUSSION PAPER NO. 10-11 DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS MIDDLEBURY COLLEGE MIDDLEBURY, VERMONT 05753 http://www.middlebury.edu/~econ 2 A POISSON MODEL FOR “HITTING FOR THE CYCLE” IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL by Christopher J. Teves Joseph T. Burchenal Daniel M. Haluska Paul M. Sommers Department of Economics Middlebury College Middlebury, Vermont 05753 [email protected] 3 A POISSON MODEL FOR “HITTING FOR THE CYCLE” IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL In a recent article in this journal [1], Campbell et al. showed that the Poisson probability distribution provides an excellent fit to the data on no-hit games in Major League Baseball, especially during the period 1920-1959. Hitting for the cycle (that is, when a batter hits a single, double, triple and home run in the same game) is another rare event in Major League Baseball.1,2 And, here too, the Poisson probability distribution given by e −μ μ x p(X = x) = , x = 0, 1, 2, … x! where x denotes the number of ballplayers who “hit for the cycle” (hereafter a “cycle”) in a given season provides a remarkably good fit. The number of cycles by league from 1901 through 2007 are shown in Table 1 (see http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/history/rare_feats/index.jsp?feature=hit_for_cycle ). Bob Meusel of the New York Yankees hit for the cycle three times in his career (1921, 1922, and 1928). -
