Dick Allen Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 08:01 PM) You could tell that was in the park by Cabrera's reaction. The guys that are used to hitting them usually know if they are gone even if its by a couple feet, and they know if its short. The only X factor is how the wind will react. I read an article a few years ago which stated the only place the ball doesn't carry well and in fact it carried poorly at USCF, was if you hit it at the CF scoreboard. There have been a lot more homers to CF this year than I can remember. Maybe it was just the extra heat this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a few of us have said all along....and as Hawk and Stone are discussing, he is a plus defender and his offense is nothing but icing on the cake.

How come Hawk only gets hammered for his homerism? Depends on who you are listening too. I like their TV guys. Tigers TV broadcast one of the best IMO.

Dick Allen Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Beckham has 15 homers and will have 60 plus RBI this season. With his defense, he's very worth keeping around. He's been robbed of a couple of homers as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly couldnt care less if he hit, but his defense is second to NONE in the MLB at 2B & defense is huge in this game. He has more range & saves more runs for our pitchers than any other 2B in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had Orlando Cabrera game used for $30, and one of them I saw was actually signed. My Bajenaru jersey was $75. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 07:49 PM) Did anyone say he should have been given a major league job? No, no one did. I'm saying that having Johnson start over Viciedo against Fister leads to a better probability of success. I posted that LH batters have a much higher BA against Fister (55 pts) and noted that Johnson has been mighty good against RHP the past several years, albeit in AAA. You just said he sucked. That's great and informative. The post before I mentioned his major league numbers, and you waved them away like it didn't matter. They prove he has sucked massively at the major league level. Worse than anything Gordo or Dayan have done, by far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 (edited) Boesch always seems to hurt us, somehow. Half of his homers this year are against the White Sox. Another near miss from Peralta, this time to RF. August or day games, those Cabrera and Peralta balls might have been homers. 70 pitches for Peavy through 4. That should at least get him through the 6th, then you'll have the usual debate about whether to pull him or leave him out to begin the inning with a reliever.
