May 21, 200422 yr the three headed monster?? LOL! remember the bash brothers? ah...the good ol' days!!
May 21, 200422 yr two bad 2 of the heads on the three headed monster are asleep right now...though I still insist that Choi for Lee was a good trade for both parties involved.
May 21, 200422 yr What? Lowell and Choi are alive and kicking. Cabs is slumping but we all know it takes just one AB and you're back. YOU'RE SLEEPING!
May 21, 200422 yr ok Choi's eyes might be open, but he is groggy at best. I'm not saying that anything should change. In fact I would love to see Choi start everyday, and not ride so much pine. Even if he goes through struggles I would rather have him than Corderro. I think Cabrera's hot start has slowed him down a bit. I look for Cab's to pick things up once all the other power hitters are way ahead of him in HR's. Say what you will about my thoughts they may be wrong, but I think he was a tad bit spoiled at the begining of the year and won't start hitting again til he realizes he isn't God...yet. He will definatly help us down the stretch. Right now no matter how bad he is doing I say he hits in the top half of the lineup, if not just to make a statement that he is believed in. Then when he picks us up down the stretch.
May 21, 200422 yr 1) Bill Robinson has said that Cabs looks like he's swinging for the fences a lot. Eh, hopefully he can stop that s*** and try taking it the other way some more. 2) YAY!
May 21, 200422 yr mark my words Cab's will one day lead the majors in HR's. anyone who can get brushed back by Roger 'freakin' Clemens, and then in the same at bat take him yard the other way...in the World Series no less, is a true HR hitter. Just has to get back to the basics is all. In other words...it'll take a wake up call, he will get it when he stops looking at stats. Nothing wrong with that, I looked at the stats on my College team when I was leading in AVG 3 weeks into season. Then I went into biggest slump of my life, and quit baseball. stat watching = slump. the only thing that would kill cabbie is if Jack shows that he has lost faith in him. Please keep him in the first half of the lineup...please
May 21, 200422 yr Looks like Cordero might be hurting for a while too. This may give Choi some more starts. He can really do some damage if he gets consistent (read: more often) starts. Cabs should continue to do some damage too. And Mikey.....fugedaboutit! :o

And Mikey.....fugedaboutit! :o it's interesting to note that Choi started hitting exactly when Cordero (his primary competition for playing time) went on the DL. perhaps it was a mental block - either he felt like he should be seeing more time, or was afraid to fail which caused more failure. either way, hopefully the removal of the Cordero roadblock will keep him hitting.
May 21, 200422 yr please dont refer gonzo and finley as the new bash brothers there is only one bash brothers and its my mentor Jcanseco and Mmac....they are solid hr hitters but there not the bash brothers........i like the three headed monster one though hopefully they can combine for 90 to 90+ hr's
May 21, 200422 yr Author Man...How are these 2 old farts knocking the ball out like this? thats whats impressive about it, two skinny dudes knocking out homers like there aint no tomorw ... im completly facinated by their outburst of power
May 21, 200422 yr This should be a fun series, we should see plenty of long balls and hopefully on Sunday Dontrelle is up to the challenge of taking on the Big Unit.
