July 9, 200917 yr Reds have been arguing balls and strikes all night long, and rightfully so IMO. But that one was right down the middle.
July 9, 200917 yr :sssh: Dude, you were a year off.:sssh::lol: But I'm glad your boy is dealing now.!!
July 9, 200917 yr Bandit I was just thinking about you and how much crow your about to serve. You got that right. I could see this coming.
July 9, 200917 yr Author John Fay had a nice litte article on Jay Bruce today. Some of his points. His batting average stinks. He looked bad last night, two strikeouts, a double play. But you've got to look beyond his average. Here's a look at the numbers for three NL Central right fielders: Hunter Pence. .301/.369/.488 with 44 runs, 11 homers and 35 RBI Corey Hart. . . .256/.325/.424 with 46 runs, 9 homers and 35 RBI Jay Bruce. . . . .212/.288/.451 with 38 runs, 18 homers and 41 RBI Pence is going to the All-Star Game this year. Hart went last year. If you look beyond the batting average, Bruce has been about as productive as the other two. Bruce has the best arm of the three -- 10 assists. Batting average would be a great stat if a single were equal to home run. Who do you want on your team? Brandon Phillips (.270)? Or Freddy Sanchez (.316)? The other side of it is Bruce hit .364 in Triple-A last year and .305 the year before. There's not a lot for him to learn there. http://news.cincinnati.com/apps/pbcs.dll/section?category=blog07&plckController=Blog&plckScript=blogScript&plckElementId=blogDest&plckBlogPage=BlogViewPost&plckPostId=Blog%3ae57bcc87-152a-4f72-96fb-cc08b1f396efPost%3ad5b5138c-f9cb-4576-87e6-dfc7340a75c2&sid=sitelife.cincinnati.com
July 9, 200917 yr Problem is you have been saying that for 3 years. :lol: I may have bought into the hype a little, but people did forget he was only 20. He has been very, very solid these last two starts.
