Explosionface posted:Yeah, I remember him being billed as Castro 2.0 defensively, but maybe I'm wrong? Baez has completely turned it around over the last 1.5 years. He used to be kinda shoddy defensively, and he had this hilariously long and loopy swing that gave him lots of homerun power but made him a SO machine. His plate discipline still needs some work, but he's reigned his swing in quite a bit and he's a defensive gem now, not to mention he can basically play any position on the diamond.

I loved the goofy rear end swing, but I love fully competent Baez more

TUESDAY From yesterdays action: Atlanta's new stadium is under construction SCHEDULE  Whoops! Games already in progress! Today in Baseball History courtesy baseball-reference.com 1936 - Joe DiMaggio makes his major league debut for the New York Yankees and has three hits in a 14 - 5 victory over the St. Louis Browns. 1980 - Willie McCovey of the San Francisco Giants hits his 521st and final career home runs against Scott Sanderson of the Montreal Expos, helping the Giants to a 3 - 2 win. 2005 - With a 9-0 margin, a state legislative committee votes to approve a bill which will require the Los Angeles Angels, formerly known as the Anaheim Angels, to disclose on all promotional materials, including tickets, ads and team publications, that the team is based in Anaheim. Using the example of an orange juice company selling OJ that contains no oranges, California Assemblyman Tom Umberg, the bill's sponsor, says he is trying to promote truth in sports advertising. 2011 - Francisco Liriano throws the first no-hitter of the season as the Twins beat the White Sox, 1 - 0. 2012 - The great Mariano Rivera, baseball's all-time save leader, suffers a torn ligament in his right knee while shagging fly balls during batting practice before the Yankees' game with the Royals. He is carted off the field, and at 42, the injury appears to be career-ending, but he will be back to pitch a final season in 2013. 2012 - Ryan Dempster of the Cubs and Homer Bailey of the Reds both celebrate their birthday by pitching against each other. It is believed to be the first time in major league history that opposing starting pitchers are both pitching on their birthdays. Born on This Day 1884 - Chief Bender 1891 - Eppa Rixey 1905 - Red Ruffing 1977 - Ryan Dempster 1986 - Homer Bailey 1988 - Ben Revere 1991 - Mike Morin All-Star ballots available here!
