SPRING STATS, PART IV

This will probably we the final Spring Stats, since next Monday is Opening Day, and I won't care any more.  Then again, maybe I will.  We'll leave that open.

OFFENSE

The good: The team OPS of .839 is encouraging.  The 83 SO/64 BB ratio is excellent.  Miguel Cabrera, Aaron Hill and Hunter Pence are raking.  Andres Torres will never supplant Aaron Rowand in CF for the Giants, but it isn't because of his bat.  David Wright has picked it up.

The bad:  Bobby Abreu and Adrian Gonzalez look terrible.  Bobby never starts strong, but I'm hoping Gonzalez isn't in "Operation Shutdown" until San Diego finally trades him.  I can't really afford that.  Russell Martin may struggle until he gets a few swings in, which, given his poor start last year, isn't helpful.

PITCHING

The good:  Mark Buehrle, Kenshin Kawakami and Jamie Moyer have been outstanding.  Luke Gregerson, Nick Masset, and Darren Oliver are right where they need to be.  He's not shown here, but Francsico Rodriguez has also been sharp.  I like the 117 SO/48 BB ratio.

The bad: The team ERA of 5.05 and team WHIP of 1.52 are awful, but Spring Training is usually a hitter's paradise.  Kevin Millwood and  Ben Sheets might make this a brutally long season for me.  Andrew Miller was sent down, and Jose Mijares and Ramon S. Ramirez got shelled regularly.  Jonathan Sanchez will drive me crazy again this year, it appears.

I'll do another team evaluation later.
