he's actually hit well of late

His OBP is up to .352. Yeah, he can barely get it out of the infield, but he’s been better of late.

And it goes without saying that I’d prefer Castro in there.

Argenis batting 2nd again

Maybe Jerry just likes to bat the 2nd baseman 2nd. Could be a symmetry thing.

At least he is in there

When a ground ball pitcher is in. Hopefully he will make up in the field what he takes away at the plate

by Reg Dunlop on Aug 20, 2008 7:19 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

that's good stuff

I say let him run, even if he might have gotten lucky there with a good pitch to run on.

Seems like just about anyone faster than Hippo can run on Jurrjens

Some managers think there's a rule saying

that only middle infielders or centerfielders can hit in the first two slots. I’ve also noticed a correlation between being small and hitting second.

I wouldn't mind seeing him come back

Easley hasn’t hit since early July and A. Reyes hasn’t hit ever. At least he draws walks.

by Reg Dunlop on Aug 20, 2008 7:22 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I agree

Commentators continue to talk as if they have been tearing it up.

The other night, Gary said the following about A Reyes (I paraphrase): He doesn’t have a high OBP, only has one extra base hit, hasn’t scored many runs, doesn’t drive in runs, but he is “always in the middle of things” — not sure how that can work.

Lots of sac bunts, maybe?

Though even that’s pushing it. If your big contribution to the scoring is always getting out, you’re not contributing.

by BobbyV_Incognito on Aug 20, 2008 7:30 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Getting out alot in the two-hole?

He is “always [getting out] in the middle” of hits by Reyes and Wright?

Murphy is God!

I just can’t believe how well he commands the stike zone. You never see that with rookies, especially ones right out of AA.

Also, I love that Manuel has the confidence to let him protect Beltran. I remember shit-for-brains Randolph had Wright batting 7th for much of 2005, even though he was the 2nd best hitter on the team.

Also, ha ha, Larry Wayne Jones.

yeah

his offense sucks, but he’s got a good glove, it appears.

Ronnie just called him “gritty”. Doesn’t Ronnie know that Latino players aren’t gritty? Only short white guys are?

He must've forgotten the script

short white guys = “gritty” or “scrappy”
short Latino guys = “flashy” or “irresponsible”

That Latino players could be gritty. I thought that was a designation for small, white players who are not good at baseball.

Ronnie's on a roll

“Computer players”? “Playing the right way?”

C’mon Ron, Daniel Murphy is a base-clogger. He plays the wrong way, the way Billy Beane’s computer told him to.

At some point, he has to prove he’s smart. References to Yale and his SAT score only go so far.

He’s got too much power to be bunting regularly. Once in a while? Yes. But I’d rather he get the doubles and triples.

I was inspired by Eric's comment that Olerud had the best 3-year run as a Met outside Carlos Beltran to look at a few different Mets, and when I noticed that two of my all-time favorite players (Alfonzo and Strawberry) were kinda screwed by having (relatively)bad seasons in between some really good seasons, I decided to see which Mets had the best 3 seasons, period (non-consecutively). Beltran still comes out on top, but my all-time favorite player Alfonzo comes in 2nd place, and him and Straw are the only two to have three 6.0+ WAR seasons. Also interesting that Hundley comes out ahead of Gary Carter, Cleon Jones almost finishes ahead of Mike Piazza, and Joe McEwing doesn't make the list.
