Wow. I’m not sure that Justin Upton needs any more time in the minor leagues.

Nate Silver in his live blog from the futures game, presumably after Upton hit his bomb.

[/ QUOTE ]

Sure he does. He hasn't seen much ungodly breaking stuff yet.

But he sure can hit the fastball.

Yeah, you're bad at life.

438 AB of 756 OPS in Single-A. Toss in the first... four weeks of this season, and what are his numbers? Like 800 OPS? I can't find game logs of the minors or I'd calculate it myself. So like I said when I made the post, he's not that good. Yet.
