Kalapse Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Javy is starting to settle in, his throwing all his pitches with strikes and his breaking balls have excellent bite. Unlike the 1st inning.

fathom Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I haven't seen anyone mention this yet, but in today's Tribune, Ozzie said that Erstad will be batting up in the order and playing somewhere in the field no matter what. When you add that to the fact that Ozzie said that Pods is his starting LF, no questions asked, you get the feeling that Anderson is going to be a platoon player at best this year.

Kalapse Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Javy's still leaving his fastball up in the zone, it has excellent zip but he's not following through. Then he goes ahead and paints the outside corner at the hips for the K. Great fastball right there. It looks like he's throwing real hard right now, it'd be nice if they had a gun going.

That would be such a disaster. Terrero is a bad baseball player....at least Anderson can contribute defensively. If Anderson gets sent down to AAA, it further enhances the claim some of us have made that the Javy trade was the worst one in club history.

I've said this many a time and I don't see how it can really be defended. KW put all his eggs in the Anderson basket, trading away one of the top young outfielders in all of baseball (30-30 potential) as well as another starting CF all to clear way for a player who can't even beat out Luis Terrero for a roster spot. What a complete disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His swing/approach at the plate is just brutal, and I can't see how he'll ever be a consistent hitter in the majors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His swing/approach at the plate is just brutal, and I can't see how he'll ever be a consistent hitter in the majors. And apparently his attitude is also playing a large part in their decision to send him back down (oh yeah I'm making it a foregone conclusion) how is it that he climbed his way through the minors over the past few years and they couldn't get a solid grasp of what type of guy he is? How do you trade away 2 other CFs without knowing exactly what you have in Anderson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
