Reddit user DShep put together this amazing GIF of Darvish, compositing all five of his primary offerings into a single animation that makes clear the consistency of his delivery and release point

Among 92 NL qualifiers, Uggla (.601) is 82nd in OPS and B.J. Upton (.485) is 90th, ahead of only Ben Revere (.471) and Adam LaRoche (.451).






Still not a minus at the plate @HHR?

I'd rather see Pastornicky get those at bats. At least he can put the ball in play and can't be any worse than Uggla at 2B either.

Pastornicky can give you the production at the plate that Uggla is giving (would be hard to be worse) and play better defense.
