You're deflecting, and distracting. You should just admit he's average. There is no other way out.

Scuds

Are you shocked Beltre is able to hit .330 for almost 300 AB with the Red Sox given he couldn't hit a consistent .280 his last half dozen years with the Dodgers....it isn't a contract, the Sox paid the guy.

While playing for Seattle, STATS SHOULDN'T BE TAKEN(ESPECIALLY OFFENSIVE ONES.) There is something very wrong up there. No, I am not surprised he's doing well. I never wanted to let him go in 04/05. We had a horrible year after letting him go. If he was playing in L.A., he'd be doing great, too.

Doc, remember one thing. Adrian is totally unproven in the post. I mean it can't be good (whatever his stats are in the post.)

Ouch that was a very nice comeback by the kids against arguably the best NL starter. Pap has had this problem for a while this season Bard is pitching better 8 th's than JP is in the 9th. That one hurt....

Yea, he's not as good as he was. I wouldn't expect him to be very forthcoming about why that is.

Okay I admit it......I have a full blown man crush on this kid. He looks good striking out with how fast he clears his hips with his approach at the plate. Why was it so hard for this kid to get noticed. He may turn into the position player version of Billy Rohr or David Clyde but he is certainly more by the day than expected and it is fun to watch.
To be fair Jimenez got roughed up pretty good tonight. The guy can hit. But dont forget he is 27 already. It is still ridiculously early to determine how good he will be. Trying to accurately evaluate a guy after less than 40 AB's can be fool's gold. He also is going to have to do something about 1 BB and 8 k's in 31 AB's ratio.

Again it is still a small sample size. But he played in two of the toughest hitters parks in LA and Seattle and now he plays in one of the better ones. I doubt he eventually hits more than .290 when the season is done.

He sure isnt the pitcher he was in 2007 anymore.

Jimenez was just getting over the flu bug he had for a couple of days.

Kid takes his first collar hitting out of the two hole now, 0 for 3 with 2 BB's and a run scored. Nothing like Tito turning up the pressure by the day. I was impressed with how selective he is from both sides but so much for the 10 game hit streak to start a career.

Sorry man, Kendrick has a 6.04 ERA in his last four starts, and with Happ ready to join the team again, Kendrick probably pitched his last game as a rotation guy. I'm sure he'll get a start here or there filling in for a guy.

I'm just wondering if they will put KK in the bullpen or send him to AAA so he can continue to start games. Right now I believe Figgy is our long man, him and Kendrick are probably similar.. I say Kendrick is sent down to AAA.

Antitrust32 06-29-2010 01:37 PM
can KK play 2nd or 3rd?? Utley & Polanco to the DL... ugh :zz:

Maybe 2nd. He doesnt have the arm for 3b!

What I miss. I go on my honeymoon and come back and see a complete game win against the Pirates and a 7 inning 1 run game against the Reds. Era now under 4.5......First time in a long time he put 2 starts consistently together, I admit...We will see.
