Last qualified player to walk 2014

i'll take andrus

i will be a jerk and wait until the day before the poll closing date to vote, since it's two weeks away. then i will choose from the 1-2 players that are left and feel empty inside.

that's so karl

Down goes Upton!

he began the game with a 0 wrc+ (who knew?)

so 0-for-x with a walk is an improvement (until his walkoff hr in the 10th tonight, of course)

getting down to it now, you look up and all of a sudden howie kendrick somehow has 4 walks

heres whos left, ive added evan gattis if hes not techincally qualified hes rt on the verge

URIBE
SCHOOP
LOMBARDOZZI
ZUNINO
GATTIS

~fyi jeff keppinger took us to may 17th last season so we could still be here awhile~

I WON.

walks are overrated, guys. Keith Hernandez says ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK

(he's rivaling Joe Morgan of ten years ago in not understanding his own career)

uribe dgaf. batting .377/.377/.607

APRIL!

of course the two bolded names are on the DL, which probably will take them out of the running.

TRUMBO
A. RAMIREZ
D. SANTANA
INFANTE
ANDRUS
BYRD

Santana walked last night

@LaVelleNeal
Oh my God! Eduardo Escobar has drawn his first walk of the season

@LaVelleNeal
He didn't even walk in spring training

75th plate appearance

@AaronGleeman
Eduardo Escobar just drew his first walk since September 3, 2014. Counting spring training he went 184 plate appearances without a walk.

Escobar currently has the most ABs (42).

Alcides Escobar
Omar Infante
Matt Kemp
Asdrubal Cabrera
Neil Walker
Justin Turner
Wilson Ramos
Nick Castellanos
Andrelton Simmons
Norichika Aoki
Michael Taylor
Kevin Pillar

i enjoy this every season

esky always a strong bet

he's out

Kevin Pillar will now be not-walking in the eighth spot rather than at leadoff.

Pillar drew a BB today! 48 AB in the leadoff spot, zero walks; they drop him back to eighth, he goes 3-3 with a walk. Casey Stengel won a few World Series supposedly preying on guys' insecurities...

i'm guessing Neil Walker is the only contender who is slugging .585?

how many left?

Walker
Ramos
Castellanos
Simmons

Walkless non-qualifying hitters with over 20 ABs:

Cameron Rupp (35)
Byron Buxton (33)
Adam Lind (33)

Paulo Orlando (23)
Steve Pearce (22)

Slugging

Walker: .585
Castellanos: .571
Ramos: .545
Simmons: .352

Yulieski Gurriel "leads" all qualifying players with a 1.1 BB%.

or maybe just jose peraza if hes counting as qualified rn

If not, Kevin Pillar currently qualifies and first walked... April 16? POossible winner?

jbj's been plunked three times, at least

I think Tim Anderson was on the list and he just walked
