September 4, 201610 yr Hamilton stole his career best 58th tonight. I really, really , really like this Peraza kid. Seems to have a high baseball IQ. Thank you LA. I really like the thought of those two at the top of the lineup. They could steal 140 bases together.
September 4, 201610 yr I am. Now, if that OBP was .381 instead of .321, Billy would be an All-Star. He would be an MVP candidate if it was .381.
September 4, 201610 yr Author He would be an MVP candidate if it was .381. Certainly would be in the discussion. If he was on base at the rate of , say, Matt Carpenter, he would be talked about among the elites.
September 4, 201610 yr Author Our chances for a sweep were not that great with Edelman on the bump. Reds down 5-2 in the 7th. Hamilton exited in the third with a strained left oblique.
September 4, 201610 yr Hamilton got hurt and did not even swing. He does seem to be fragile. Announcers said he ended last two years on D/L.
September 4, 201610 yr Hamilton got hurt and did not even swing. He does seem to be fragile. Announcers said he ended last two years on D/L. I like watching the kid play. He does give you 100% effort. But, and I really hate to note this, he's going to have to start to slow up on some of the diving catches and such. I just don't think his frame can continue to take the abuse the older he gets.

Frustrating missed opportunities. Defense totally abandoned Jumbo - Votto doesn't catch a ball at 1st (and what is the "running lane" even there for if you're allowed to run all the way in the grass even when it obscures the 1B line of vision?) and then throws late and wide after Jumbo had Piscotty picked off and then Jumbo added to his own problems with a wild pitch. Next inning, Reds load the bases and don't convert. Cabrera was a DP machine today. Will be interesting to see how Bruce reacts to coming back to GABP.
