June 7, 201214 yr 44 Homeruns in 3019 minor league plate appearances is decent power? His Hr's increased as he worked is way up the rungs...He has 5 this year, keep in mind he is a lead-off hitter...Until reaching AAA where he has really struggled his OBP was also very nice...5 HR's so far this year is not bad for a lead-off hitter too go along 10 Doubles a Triple and 15 Steals at his point in the season...He had a rough start to his season in April and had all of his HR's in may...
June 7, 201214 yr The new kid has some hair. Can't wait to see the name spindoc gives him. Nicknames already Spider-man, he has earned the nickname with some of his amazing feats in the field. He can and has played almost everywhere on the field as evidenced in 2012. So far this year he has appeared at six different positions including 2B (11), 3B (11), SS (20), LF (1), CF (18), and RF (1).
June 7, 201214 yr I don't see the Pirates getting to Cueto tonight. 5 should be enough. Edited June 7, 201214 yr by HammerTime
June 7, 201214 yr Heisey!!! Thats why I like him, Stubbs would have watched it and grabbed it off the bounce and the hitter would have had a Double...The Reds imo don't lose a whole lot without Stubbs and that's why I said I would include him in a trade...Heisey is a better hitter and even though a step slower he possesses a better all out attitude that makes up for it, he is more than capable of playing CF...

He's pretty much stunk it up in AAA except for one good month. I see very little to get excited about sans the hairdo. If they have to use him as anything other than a late innings defensive replacement and occasional pinch hitter it will not be good.

I never said he was a superstar or anything but he will definitely contribute to the team more than Stanzy which isn't saying much I know...He can pinch run, he can get hits that wouldn't be hits with his speed and he is a good bunter and a phenomenal defensive replacement...I don't think he will be starting to many games like you said though, so nothing to worry about...

June 7, 201214 yr Author The Nationals get Bryce Harper, we get Harpo Marx. I like that better than Spiderman.
June 7, 201214 yr Mullet mouth had to bring up that he only let one inherited runner score before that belt high fastball left the friggin' yard.
