Man, when you got a kid at home whose life can be measured in days instead of months or years, you sure end up watching a lot more MLB Network in the middle of the night. Which is awesome if you own Andre Ethier the night he blasts three home runs. Not so much if you own Matt Kemp when he goes 0-for-6 with four strikeouts. But new baby or no new baby, it seems time for a brand new Bits ...
-- Chris Davis is starting to pick up the pace. Six-for-11 in his last three games with two homers and five runs scored. Of course, he also struck out five times. In the last week, his OBP jumped from a super pathetic .248 to just a really pathetic .271. We'll see if it keeps trending in the right direction.
-- Another Davis -- Doug Davis -- has been solid as a rock this season, carrying a 3.28 ERA but with only three wins to show for it. He's given up three earned runs or less eights times and not gotten the win. I bet Davis isn't taking his position players out for margaritas any time soon.
-- Andrew McCutchen has 18 RBI in 22 games played ... in the leadoff spot ... for the Pirates! Tell me if this sounds crazy: I'm actually considering trading Joey Votto for Cutch in my big-money league. (I just moved Matt Kemp in a deal that got me Chase Utley, and I'd like to be able to replace Kemp's SB numbers ... or at least come close. Meanwhile, I have Justin Morneau at 1B, and I think Juan Rivera makes for a fine DH.) Am I crazy? If so, somebody needs to talk me down from the ledge before I accept the offer.
-- Ever since this blog first launched both Mike and I have written about how underrated Torii Hunter is as a fantasy player. Now that he's ranked #6 overall in the Yahoo game, do you think people are starting to believe us?
