CF Art Goins (Not Ranked)
Acquired: Via Trade with New York (1942)
AA: .240/.330/.340 (73 OPS+), 117 PA, 4 2B, 3 3B, 9 RBI, 2 SB
A: .280/.392/.376 (106 OPS+), 149 PA, 4 2B, 3B, 2 HR, 15 RBI, 4 SB
CWL: .286/.419/.421 (104 OPS+), 3 2B, 2 3B, 4 HR, 15 RBI, SB

The Stallions are really bad, eliminated from the playoffs before even winning game #10, but Art Goins is having a really good January. The recently turned 24-year-old is slashing .333/.447/.538 (138 OPS+) in 10 January games, good for a 151 WRC+. What's interesting is he's actually striking our more, with 8 compared to just 7 walks in 47 trips to the plate, but hitting plenty of extra base hits. Half his homers and 2/3rds of his doubles have occurred since the calendar flipped to 1948. He's working on a nine game hit streak and has reached base in 22 of his last 23 games. That's helped him increase his season line to a strong .286/.419/.421 (104 OPS+) out of the leadoff spot, with a more impressive 116 WRC+ in 35 games. Goins has walked (31) a bit more then twice as frequently as he's struck out (14), and he's scored 30 times so far. A strong Winter from Goins has worked his way back into our future plans, as the Hall of Famer's son has reclaimed regular playing time. I'd like to see him play everyday for the Commodores, as at least one spot on the grass is open. Another could if teammate Jimmy Hairston starts in AAA, but I'd bet on Goins joining Rupert Abbott in Mobile chasing down almost every ball hit near them.
