Seems like he could benefit from hitting fewer ground balls. Over 56%.

Willy's now the senior veteran of the catching corps.

Willson in July: .380/.436/.700, .472 wOBA, 193 wRC+

He's also 2nd in fWAR among all catchers behind only some dude named Posey. He's also been about 2 wins better than Yadi.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

Not bad for a guy who wasn't even protected from the Rule 5 draft.

My next jersey is a gray road Contreras.

He's got an OPS over 1.000 in the cleanup spot.

I love me some Cone-treras. He's been red hot since the break. I hope Joe works Caratini in a little more though, just to make sure Willson stays fresh for September (if necessary) and October.

I'd think Caratini will be getting his reps west of the Mississippi as soon as Jepstink land either Avila or Lucroy.

Really hope it's Avila because Lucroy has been trash.

Actually, it was the Paul Goldschmidt Game.

It's also the Why the Fuck Can't the Cubs Score Off 5.00 ERA-Having Fernando Rodney Especially When He Walked Two Guys in the Ninth Inning Game. And the Justin Wilson Is Not Looking Great So Far Game. And man do I hate the Diamondbacks.
