RenteriaUpTheMiddle Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 The way Hermida has been playing lately he NEEDS a day off. Yeah, 2 bad games. Horrendus. Never been done before. Meanwhile, everyone is loving Gonzo b/c he had 2 good ones in NY. When a player struggles they usually give them a day off... and don't give me that 2 bad games crap the guy is hitting in the 250s for the year, hardly an important part of the lineup. Hermida's .834 .OPS in the 2nd half is better than "Hammer's." Alright let's get statistical... Hermida in July .232 .311 .516 .827 In August .231 .311 .231 .542 Willingham In July .229 .385 .325 .710 In August .216 .268 .324 .593 Conclusion they have both been sucking it UP! I agree, tiebreaker? Hermida is faster, a better fielder, and is healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbethan Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 3 games? When did 3 games become better than an entire of half of baseball? How many AB's does he have in those 3 wonderful games? 10? Take ONE hit off, and he's hitting .200. He's not really making a difference, offensively, right now...and he's the one with the bad back. Gonzo's REAL position is LF. Makes sense to sit Hammer out, imo. But the point is that this .300 shows that Hammer could finally be coming out of his funk while Hermida has been struggling in the last few games. Bah, why am I even arguing this, I was against this move! Its the stats, you're giving into them. Trust your eyes Rabb, you know them to be true! Don't give into the statside! I was against this for defense sake. It has nothing to do with stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenteriaUpTheMiddle Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 All I'm going to say is, I have watched the past 3 games, all of them. Josh looks bad at the plate, he is late on fastballs, and he is normally a good fastball hitter. Jeremy is slightly colder, but in the long run Josh has been bad for a long time now, and is not being benched nearly enough. If it only takes 3 bad games for Jeremy to get a night off, then what the hell does Josh have to do, because he's had the lion's share of sh*tty games this half. This should be the end of the argument. Josh hasn't been great, I'll agree. But he's been better than Jeremy. Its the end of the argument if you manage your baseball team based on 3 game stretches, and bench a guy every time he has 3 bad games. Whatever.

Erick Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 He's not really making a difference, offensively, right now...and he's the one with the bad back. Gonzo's REAL position is LF. Makes sense to sit Hammer out, imo. Granted it's a lot less games, Gonzo's numbers in right are very similar to his numbers in left. So left isn't necessarily his "real position". CAREER #'s. Games played in LF: 2,384 Games played in RF: 12 (all this year...#13 tonight) Safe to say Gonzo's primary position is LF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, he's seen much more time in left but to say its his primary position when his numbers are almost exactly the same isn't fair. Most corner outfielders can play either corner.

dim Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 ok, wit both Willingham and Hermida struggling, I believe now that we need a bat. Sheff was just waived, i did not want him originally, but i believe we kind of need him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if we base it on a month, neither has Josh (or 2 months for that matter). And he is slower and the worse fielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
