CF Johnny Peters (#41 Overall)
Acquired: Via Draft: 1st Round, 3rd Overall (1945)
FABL: .250/.423/.450 (134 OPS+), 26 PA, 2B, HR, RBI
AAA: .320/.415/.462 (122 OPS+), 623 PA, 26 2B, 5 3B, 13 HR, 63 RBI, 7 SB
CWL: .246/.371/.381 (93 OPS+), 145 PA, 7 2B, 3 HR, 17 RBI, 3 SB

Very few went right for the Stallions this week, as Santa Clara dropped all four games, now losers of six in a row. This has dropped the Cougars/Eagles squad to two games out of first, as for the most part the offense has completely dried up. That did not apply to Johnny Peters.

The former 3rd Pick had an excellent week, going 5-for-16 with a double, homer, and four walks. That translated to a .312/.450/.562 (158 OPS+) weekly line which upped his season line to a more respectable .246/.371/.381 (93 OPS+), and his 102 WRC+ is back above average after he slipped below for the past few weeks. A natural center fielder, Peters has been spending his time out in left, which like Grace playing second, works well for us as I somewhat want Peters to grab ahold of the left field job at sometime this season. A disciplined hitter, Peters has matched his walk and strikeout totals with 24 in 145 trips to the plate. He hasn't made a lot of contact, but the extra base hits are huge, as he's clubbed 7 doubles and 3 homers while swiping 3 bases too. This more then makes up for the lack of singles, especially considering that like our stadium, the Stallions' is on the small side. Dixie expects him to hit around .300, like the .320 he posted in Milwaukee, so I'm not overly worried about the small average now. What's good is when he's putting the ball in play, he's hitting it hard, and his 16.6 BB% is higher then each of his stints excluding his freshman year of college (17.0) and his 9 game cup of coffee this September (23.1). He's got exciting tools and its on full display this winter, even if he's not performing exactly as expected. This excellent week is as good as he's been, and I'm hoping he can stay hot the rest of the way.
