2012 Regression Candidates

[shag773]

Mat Latos is 9th in the NL and 20th in baseball in HR/9. So at least I got one right.

:dtrain:

Before the season you also said the Phillies rotation was the most overrated in MLB, so you had that right too. Just keeping it real..

Anyone have Peter Bourjos as a regression candidate? Cus he hasn't been good. Then again, he doesn't really get playing time.

Angels should look into trading him possibly...he still has value as a top flight defensive cf and young...his bat is still decent to me.

One more thing while we're here...

adding to the lulz...

Starlin Castro and the Chicago Cubs have agreed to a seven-year contract extension worth $60 million, according to multiple reports. ESPN Deportes' Enrique Rojas first reported the deal.

USA TODAY Sports' Bob Nightengale (@BNightengale) offered this initial reaction on Twitter:

Brilliant move by Cubs locking up Castro to 7-year, $60 million deal, giving them option of keeping him or enhancing future trade value.

Castro, 22, is in his third major league season. He is batting .278 so far this season with 12 home runs, 58 RBIs and 19 steals.
