Well I guess we missed that one pretty badly.
This morning I was thinking about last month's community projection for Carlos Beltran. I went back to see how we all did now that we have passed the midpoint of his shortened season, based on results to date. Result: turrible. After 156 ABs his slash line is .217/.333/.326. We predicted, collectively, .275/.355/.455. From what I can see the halftime winner of said predictive contest was David Wrong, Jason K, Jeff Franc0-fer, who guessed .253/.303/.391. In an incredibly sad turn of events, this now-apparently optimistic guess was based on Frenchy's then slash line. There is little I can add to that observation.

Full disclosure...
My prediction was among the worst.
Go see Addams Family on broadway
Then you will know all about full disclosure.
Consequences will never be the same.

Sigh
I don’t think anyone of us understood how much the brace would limit him, and just how unready he was to face RHP.
There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only GRISSIONZ
The 2010 Mets- Hey, we may suck, but what did you expect?
I went low, but not THAT low, fer crying out loud.
It just seemed like you couldn’t take being Carlos Beltran away from him.
But now… even that’s… [brace yourself] gone.
Hey, at least he beat my prediction of .000/.000/.000 with 175 sacrifice bunts.
That’s something I guess (or maybe not).

There's still more time...
I came pretty close with the OBP (.330, as opposed to his .333), anyway.

I kinda felt CB wasn't ready anyway
the guy had a serious knee operation after all. the fact he is playing baseball at 30% is still better than the guy in RF….
In time, CB might be healthy enough to be effective again.
