Community Projection Review: Freddy Sanchez
PLAYER POS. COMMUNITY ZiPS ACTUAL Freddy Sanchez 2B .313/.355/.454 298/.340/.415 .271/.298/.371 Well, there's no sugarcoating this one. Doug Froebel did the best, guessing that Sanchez would hit .278/.308/.340. Scoreboard had the third-best guess after posting the...

He got his fastball up to 91 MPH, which still isn't where it was in 2006, but his velocity was still significantly better than it was a few weeks...
Pirates 3, Braves 2
This one looked like one of those epic Pirates games where the team doesn't even look that impressive -- Ian Snell somehow allowed just one run despite six walks in seven innings, and the Pirates' offense didn't do anything that impressive, either. Still, the Bucs headed into the ninth with the...
