In case you've missed everything on Twitter this morning:

- Al said that he couldn't find any .gifs of a Valbuena bat flip (because of course he couldn't), so someone posted one in the comments.
- @bleedcubtweets noticed that Desipio was the source for the .gif.
- @gtx281 suggested that Andy change the source file on Desipio.
- Andy obliged. A few times.

To me, the best part is that Al had previously commented on the .gif, so it now looks like he saw and was OK with these images appearing on his site.

Here's the live link, for as long as it lasts.

That's fantastic.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

The "a few times" link, Al overseeing the construction from his perch hundreds of feet away, is still there.  Good work, everyone.

I don't know that Al is ever going to find out, since he's blocked anyone on Twitter who's within 10 degrees of any Desipiots.

We may have finally found a use for you.

But you're only gonna get 1 AB, most likely, so make it a good one.

He's commented on a thread lower in that post. I am surprised he hasn't seen it.

Unless he hits F5 or clears his cache, I don't think he'll see it.  I just looked at this now for the first time and had to F5 to get rid of Val-B.

Quote2015 Cubs ZiPS Projections

QuoteYou probably won't like many of these.

QuoteI'm going to let you have at it rather than say anything really detailed here, except that the system doesn't appear to like batting average much at all.

QuoteIt's got Kris Bryant hitting 29 homers -- Rookie of the Year, right? -- except with a .226 BA.

QuoteJavier Baez is projected with 30 dingers, but to hit .215 (actually, that would be a huge improvement).

QuoteAnthony Rizzo, another 30-homer guy for the Cubs, says ZiPS -- except he'll hit .235

QuoteUPDATE: As pointed out in the comments, I divided hits by PA instead of looking at the actual numbers in the second chart.
