Hopefully he'll either figure out lefties or be platooned so that's going to help his numbersD-train wrote: ↑Sat Jul 20, 2019 3:26 pmDon't worry about BA. .372 OBP and .512 SLG% is close to elite. On pace for close to 4 WAR despite severe positional adjustments. And don't forgot, this is really his rookie year. I see him eventually with about a .280 BA.

Lopes with a GS last night. OPS up to .828. Wow he was drafted by Jack Z in the 6th round of same draft as Zunino in 2012. Zunino was promoted after 363 PAs Lopes has 3525 PAs, almost 10x more!

Re: Minor League Updates
Yeah, he was a pitcher in college I believe. He's got a helluva arm. There was a story that he could stand at home plate and throw it over the CF wall 410 ft away when he was at Liberty..

For some reason he gets pulled with only 59 pitches and a perfect game going. James jones (yes that James Jones) comes in to relieve him and hits a batter (no more perfect game) but keeps the no hitter going.
Who knew James Jones was a pitcher now? Could be pretty valuable as a RP and pinch hitter. Having a pretty good year in AA right now

Lopes just keeps balling and flying under everyone's radar...
