March 31, 200521 yr Carlos Delgado, 1B, Florida Marlins The Marlins' signing of Delgado was the single biggest move, in terms of the player being a difference maker, of the offseason. The Marlins landed him, and by doing so, kept him from the Mets, a team in their division. He's just what the Marlins needed: a power hitting left-handed batter. He gives the Marlins lineup the best depth and balance in the National League. He also brings a presence both on the field and at the box office. Miami is close enough to his home, Puerto Rico, that it might as well be home. Plus his agent (David Sloane) is based in Ft. Lauderdale, which should to help him get through any bumps in the road. With his talent and skilled players around him along with a strong support system in place, Delgado is ready to have a great season. He's my choice to win the NL MVP. Prediction: 40 home runs, 130 RBI, a .290 batting average, .400 on-base percentage and a .600 slugging percentage. espn.insider.com
March 31, 200521 yr YEA! He's already got my vote....I wonder how many "points" that will add to his contract option?
March 31, 200521 yr He gets 10 points for being named NL MVP. 725365[/snapback] So we hope this doesn't come true... :plain
March 31, 200521 yr Prediction: 40 home runs, 130 RBI, a .290 batting average, .400 on-base percentage and a .600 slugging percentage. Sweet Jebus, if Delgado puts up those stats, I'm gonna tattoo Carlos Delgado's face on my buttcheek.
April 1, 200521 yr He wont get the 40 in that stadium. 725495[/snapback] Why not Sheffield did and Delgado is more powerful than him. I know I know, he is a lefty but he is a beast. We'll see. If he stays healthy, then I think he can come close.
April 1, 200521 yr He wont get the 40 in that stadium. 725495[/snapback] Floyd got 30, and the Phillies now play in a much more hitter friendly park.
April 1, 200521 yr miggy for mvp!!!!!!!!! although I'll be fine if delgado wins it too! 725690[/snapback] Miggy sounds good to me, because I don't want Delgado to be here well into my college education...
April 1, 200521 yr Even though I think Phillps knows nothing about baseball I'm glad he's giving props to the Fish
April 1, 200521 yr Well, if Delgado provides the protection needed for Miguel, then Miggy may get MVP..
April 1, 200521 yr He'll bomb 6 in Philly alone. 725608[/snapback] 9 in Atlanta, 8 in Washington, 4 in Coors, 3 in Bank One, 5 in Wrigley, 5 in Tropicana. Done.
