Lammycat Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 He's a lefty, not a switch hitter, but I'm going to assume you meant he hits righties and lefties well. He's got a nice arm, but he sometimes has those mental lapses in the OF. He walked 111 times in one MiLB season, so he's got huge on base potential too.Oops. Meant hits both RP/LP pretty evenly.

Sir Stewart Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Of all places, the local toy store. I saw it in the window last week and flipped out - but I figured they only had it in kid's sizes. B presented it to me tonight. Link to post Share on other sites
Beltmann Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 the brewers are fast out of the gate this year! Although the Reds are looking good tonight 6 up and 6 down after 2The Brew Crew bats have been weak tonight--although Braun just homered, so that's something. Link to post Share on other sites

Lammycat Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 I read in the paper on the way in to work that no team who has started the season 0-7 has ever made the post season. Link to post Share on other sites
Chris_H_2 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I read in the paper on the way in to work that no team who has started the season 0-7 has ever made the post season. Last year the Yankees were 8 games under .500 in late April and still made the post season. I think they were worse off than the Tigers are now. Link to post Share on other sites

Twisted Acres Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 7 games = less than 5% of the season... Los Tigres will be more than just fine Mets defeat the Phils, so now all the maalox-popping stressed out Mets fans can f'ing RELAX (didn't see a cause for alarm personally) Mark Reynolds on the Diamondbacks looks like the real deal, and I really really hope Hermida can finally get 250 at-bats without a trip to the DL, he's gonna be a great one Link to post Share on other sites

cryptique Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Mark Reynolds on the Diamondbacks looks like the real dealI believe he was the last man I added to my fantasy roster ... and then I dropped him before the season started because I was overloaded on third basemen and short on starting pitching.

bobbob1313 Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I'd feel bad for the Nats getting swept in the first series in their park if it wasn't the Marlins doing the sweeping. First place, 2 quality starts in a row! Link to post Share on other sites
tongue-tied lightning Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Reds finally have a closer, and IF the starters can be decent playing above 500 is possible 3-3 tie Mets need this, well not NEED, but after blowing another lead it would be nice Link to post Share on other sites
