FishFanPR Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 All the haters, the Sea Bass is so hot now that he gets intentionally walked :-) :lol He's been hot the past few weeks, uh? His avg. is up to .252, and that's what most of us consider his batting "prime". Anything he gives us over .250 is icing for the cake.

Marlins Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 YUP! AGon is doing great! He is showing a lot of power also. He has 8 home runs so far and he is batting .252! If he continues hitting this good he might have a shot at reaching .300.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarlinsFans46 Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Of course, he was only intentionally walked to get to the pitcher's spot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libelula Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Of course, he was only intentionally walked to get to the pitcher's spot... FREE NATE FROM WHAT?! And yeah, it's not like he was given the Bonds treatment. The only reason they walked him was to get to the pitcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Marlin Man Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 well, last year he started HOT...then tailed off big time this year lets hope its the reverse I think he can surpass his HR and RBI total from last year.....let me check i know he had 18 bombs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishywishy Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 It's nice to see Alex walk at all. He has been amazingly on fire and I totally love it. If his offense ever caught up with his defense, hell even went near it, he would be a MAJOR player and everyone would know who he is.

Skully Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 I've always said that this team would not be the same without Alex Gonzalez. I know at times he slumps so bad, it's like having two pitcher spots, but if he can keep his average around .255/.260, I would be extremely happy....His defense alone is a reason to keep him around though. He was robbed of a Gold Glove last year. And I hate being negative, but even Ramon Castro was intentionally walked earlier this year to get to the pitcher. That's not a good sign of how well a hitter is doing....Alex is on fire though and I hope he keeps it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Marlin Man Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 okay....last year he had 18 bombs and 77 rbi batted .256 and slugged .443 right now he has 8 bombs and 26 rbi.....he should pass his HR total easily (knock on wood) as he is hitting HRs more consistently it seems rather than on streaks......he has 22 games before the all star break to get 14 rbis...that would give him half of 77. That may be tough if the offense continues to be inconsistent..... it seems that sea bass isnt getting as many rbis but i attribute that to a weaker offense since Sea bass is hitting very well with RISP. His avg. ans slug. is right on with what it was last year......I think he can improve on both...i dont think it would be unfair to want .260 out of Alex, considering that is a small difference from .250 hits wise. We all know he doesnt walk so no point looking at OBP anyway, looks like alex is improving :thumbup , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TealMonster Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 if gonzo can bat .280 come season's end, that would be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Batting average with June half over: April - .182 May - .253 June - .372 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlin2266 Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 And (just as important, perhaps) we actually see him smile in the dugout on occasion. As Yogi might say, half the battle is 90% attitude! Play ball / have fun / win games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marlins04 Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 i would be happy wit the same numbers from last year but i think he will get a little less rbi's and like 2 or 3 more homers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
