Prince Fielder thrown out trying to steal third base !!! I wish I could have seen that one !! Milwaukee 3, Florida 2, end of 4 in Florida.

A sub 800 OPS is not a good start toward turning around their totals. It may eventually level them out at substandard, but that's not turning things around. Lee has a 736 OPS, how would continuing at a rate of 775 turn that around?

Why don't you explain for the boys and girls in the audience just what "median performance" is and then tell us who is treading water below that ??
