    I've seen the Astros this year too. It's hard to imagine someone is worse but the Twins are...

    I believe he was a switch hitter and they said he had more power from the left side. although i think that was his first HR?

    1st homer from the right side

    Meh, I like Hagadone a lot. No secret I think he has 7th inning stuff. But this early in his career, Id like to see him used for lefties or start an inning. Smith has the experience and if its a switch hitter, Id rather a righty be in there who has been through it before than a rookie.

    Also, 1st HR from the right side, 4 from the left...Odd power numbers if its supposed to be the other way.

    2/4, 2R, 2RBI, HR and NO STRIKEOUTS!
    True. If he goes on a tear you become a legend

    it seems like we always give up homers to people who rarely hit them. i bet Ichiro will have like 3 HRs in 2 games when they get in town.

    Lame. They need to call up laporta here soon. He's been killing it is aaa. Maybe the light has finally turned on and he's going to be the player we all expected him to be

    Or maybe he's a career AAAA guy
  • HitsRus
    yeah...I would have called up LaPorta. I mean really, what's the upside on Lopez?
  • BR1986FB

    lol--and what league would that be?

    anyway, if they call up LaPorta for anyone it should be for Duncan--he needs a vacation to Cbus real bad
  • BR1986FB
    Kotchman finally above the Mendoza Line at .206

    thats what im starting to think. he can do work down in the minors but he can't do shit in the majors. hopefully this time the lights click he starts to get it.
