'Hi everybody. We're Archie Bell & the Drells. From Houston Texas.' Well nice to meet you!
There is nothing special to this song. But, it makes me want to dance. Hopefully you boogie in you chair.

Loading... Its a West Coast weekday game, I dont expect too many to be around for this one. But it should be entertaining. The Wolves are coming off a game where they blitzed the Lakers for 47 in the first quarter and between Love, Brew, and Rubio had an entire season worth of highlight reel material.
The Clippers have only played 2 home games this season. They have scored 126 and 137 in those two games. The third home game may have a final score of 160-150.
Trent Oeltjen is hitting .400 (25 at-bats). Canberra wins it in the ninth.
A wild game in Guasave. Shutouts in Hermosillo and Navojoa. Culiacan Cruzes to victory.
One inning decided both games. Four bases-loaded walks were involved in one of them.
A comeback for Cibao. Fine pitching for Licey. Este wins with the long ball.
Eduardo Escobar is hitting .337 (86 at-bats). Oswaldo Arcia had another good day. So did Josmil Pinto.
Last year Mauer hit .324/.404/.476 in 113 games: 75 at catcher, 29 at DH, and 8 at first. Let's assume he does similar in 2014 but with 150 games all at first.
DRS rates Mauer's defense over a full year (unsure if that's 150 or 162 games) at +2 runs; UZR says +8 runs; TZL says +7 runs. I'm going to assume +5 runs.
Extrapolating things a bit to more games, but at first, gives the following rWAR figures.
| Year | G | PA | Rbat | Rbaser | Rdp | Rfield | Rpos | RAA | WAA | Rrep | RAR | WAR |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2013 | 113 | 508 | 26 | -1 | 1 | 6 | 2 | 34 | 3.8 | 17 | 51 | 5.4 |
| 2014 | 150 | 654 | 34 | -1 | 0 | 5 | -12 | 26 | 2.9 | 22 | 48 | 5.3 |
Almost exactly the same. A large part of that is due to many more plate appearances. I don't know how much his defense will improve at first given experience. DRS really liked him this year, but UZR didn't. If instead he averages +10 runs at first, that's bordering on a six-win season.
A pair of complete games in Adelaide. Bases-loaded doubles in two of the three games.
Gracious hosts in all four games. Navojoa plays Twins Baseball in the worst way. If you hit two home runs, have you committed Burgamy?
