Is Scrabble going to make the team ?If not http://www.bravesfanproshop.com/authentic-nick-markakis-jersey , please read on.This series of articles will run from now until shortly before opening day. The purpose is to crowd source the D-Backs fans of this website to get a sense of how they feel about the prospects of each individual player on the 40 man roster. For this exercise I will only be using rate (average) stats and poll the readers on their sense of direction for that player’s level of basic performance, regardless of playing time expectations.I’m not including defense and base running, so no WAR here, as that is playing time dependent. You will be given two poll options:The player will either exceed the projection or under perform the projection by 5% for hitters OPS or 10% for pitchers ERA/FIP.There is no middle option to vote on. (Otherwise the majority of votes would end up agreeing with the projection).What I am looking for is if you are forced to indicate your sense of direction for the player, is it well over or under the projection?Other Points of note:Projections are the average of Steamer and ZIPS projections.(Click through for original tables)The projections draw on 3 or 4 year samples Jose Ramirez Jersey , weighting most recent seasons the heaviest, but I’m just showing 2018 and career statsin mini table below for simplicityThe player’s name is high lighted with a link to the player’s Baseball-Reference page.Click on that to see more player history and detailAge is the 2019 player age.Polls will run until mid March, so if you miss a player,you can go to the story stream box on the front page andfind a player you might have missed .Please let us know in the comments section your thoughts behind your vote. Thanks !CONTEXT MARC RZEPCZYNSKI Age33Scrabble has a projection for a4.40 ERA, 4.55 FIP.Is he likely to come in over or under ? The Boston Red Sox will be without Steven Wright for half of the 2019 season afterMLB levied an 80-game suspension against the pitcher Ronald Acuna Jr. Jersey ,MLB.com's Mark Feinsand reported Wednesday afternoon.Feinsand disclosed that Wright tested positive for a performance-enhancing drug called growth hormone releasing peptide 2 (GHRP-2), which violates the MLB's Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program.Minutes after reports of Wright's suspension, the Red Sox released a statement(h/t Feinsand):"The Boston Red Sox fully support Major League Baseball's Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program and its efforts to eliminate performance-enhancing substances from the game. While we are disappointed by the news of this violation, we will look to provide the appropriate support to Steven at this time. Going forward, the club will not comment further on the matter."Wright has spent his entire major league career with the Red Sox since being called up in 2013. Last season Sean Newcomb Jersey , he contributed to Boston's World Series run with a 2.68 ERA in 53.2 innings pitched.Wright defended himself against purposefully taking a performance-enhancing substance while still accepting responsibility for a positive test."We couldn't figure out how this substance got into my body," Wright toldAlex Speierof theBoston Globe. "But at the end of the day, it's my responsibility. ... It falls on me. ... I know the truth. People close to me know I wouldn't intentionally do this. ... Unfortunately, sometimes things get into your system."According to MassLive.com'sChris Cotillo, Wright was notified of a failed offseason test during winter. Wright appealed and Preston Tucker Jersey , during his appeal, informed the Red Sox. His appeal was officially denied Tuesday night.Wright also noted toChris Masonthat being ineligible for the 2019 postseason due to his suspension "flat-out sucks," but he stillsupportsthe league's joint drug policy.This is the second consecutive year Wright has been ineligible to start the season due to suspension. Wright's 2018 season began with a 15-game suspension forviolating the MLB's domestic violence policyfollowing an arrest in December 2017 for domestic assault against his wife.
