New at Third
It's only been a few games, but the DRays new third baseman, Antonio Perez has been impressive offensively so far. He hit his 2nd HR in 20 games today. He's getting hits (.333 BA) and he's drawing walks (.409 OBA). He's also 3 for 3 stealing. So far, nothing not to like. He had good walk numbers in the minor leagues, but his BA wasn't as high as this. Still, Perez looks like a good addition to the offense.
Update: Ben Jacobs points out to me that this is Perez's first game at third base. He's a middle infielder, which makes his stats more impressive. Ben wrote about Antonio here.
