jphat007 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 12:39 PM) At that point they will have to. You can not have a guy in your starting line up in May hitting less that .200 unless it is a pitcher. That is just embarassing. Jermaine Dye was last year I believe.

Ndgt10 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I hate how anderson looks so non-chalant in CF. He looks like a complete tool, especially because he can't hit s***. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no comparison between a guy who's a proven slugger in the majors and a guy who's never proven he can play at this level. I know there are a lot of guys who are hitting below .200 in baseball right now....but I doubt many of them look like a pitcher trying to bat like Anderson.

SSH2005 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I'm surprised that Anderson has struck out so many times looking. I expected most of his strikeouts to come swinging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes absolutely no sense, the guy is getting to the ball and is using proper form to catch it. But you want him what, to look pissed off as he catches? What does that do?

That's like someone saying that Uribe is too laid back in the field, and they'd rather he play like a spaz like Nomar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
