The Silver Slugger Award is voted on by managers and coaches. Last year Stephen Strasburg won the award as the top hitting pitcher in the National League. This year he’s not doing as well as four of the Braves’ starting pitchers. Last night Julio Teheran collected a single, double, and RBI – but both Kris Medlen and Tim Hudson have even better numbers. Even Mike Minor’s numbers are slightly better than Strasburg’s. Will a Braves pitcher win the Silver Slugger? Not sure I should hold my breath.

Third baseman Chris Johnson leads the league in hitting with a .346 average. Next week I’ll research what his Silver Slugger chances are.
