did you watch any games last season? pods did do a lot to mess with pitchers last year... meat balls, wild pitches, pitchers walking people.... its not about BA as much as it is him getting in the head of the other team... he did it more often last season but has done it a little this year.

Pods was so overrated during the regular season last year it wasn't even funny. He scored 80 runs. Surely if he messed with pitcher's minds as much as advertised he would have scored a very average 80 runs for a leadoff guy with almost 60 steals. He actually is a better offensive player this year.

I think Carl Everett hitting 3rd and Paul Konerko's .246 average with RISP had something to do with Pods only scoring 80 runs. You can't steal home.

Then explain to me how he only scored 80 runs last year if all he did was get into pitcher's minds? He's going to score alot more than 80 this season, and you say he's not getting in their minds. I'll take this year's version. He gets more extra base hits and drives home more runs as well. Defensively he's a joke. I never liked him except for October 23,2006. He has slipped defensively, although he was extremely average last year. I am kind of shock about how many have turned on him, considering all the numbers.

But then you would prove false the theory that he was in pitcher's mind.
