Gary Sanchez has had awful luck this year, and his BABIP is down. It's not some long-term issue, with the caveat of it's baseball who knows.

I just wanted it to rhyme with DIPS because it was the first projection system that wasn't internal to Voros that was utilizing that info

Extremely. Have you seen his Twitter account?

Sean, on the Royals top 24 prospect page MJ Melendez redirects to Rockies OF Manuel Melendez's page. It has been driving me nuts for months lol.

If you are referring to the Top 24 Prospects: Kansas City Royals. Those are fixed. We probably have the wrong id on the scouting data.
