He later flashed the leather with one of his trademark sliding grabs for the final out of the seventh inning. The 26-year-old brought his stolen base total up to 12 with two more Thursday, and he appears completely over the knee ailment that cost him a game late last week.","date":"Thu May 23"},"fullName":"Andrew McCutchen","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Looking for a catalyst for the Pirates' incredible run the first four months of last season? Look no further than McCutchen, who in 2012 added 51 points of batting average and 131 points of OPS to his 2009-11 cumulative numbers, while becoming only the fifth player in Pirates history, and first in seven years, to manage a 30/20 season. That resulted in the fourth-best fantasy season by any individual player. McCutchen's critics will cite his .375 BABIP, fourth-highest in the league and 78 points higher than the major league average; we'll counter with his .282 well-hit average (percentage of his at-bats in which he made hard contact), also fourth-highest and 85 points higher than the average, meaning that his BABIP should have been higher than usual. Just 26 years of age, McCutchen is at the dawn of his big-league prime. He's a first-rounder for sure, and with a stronger supporting cast -- read: runs/RBIs -- he might make a compelling case for No. 1.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Mon Feb 11"},"playerRater30DAY":8.6,"playerRater15DAY":10,"positionRank":4}
