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?Laley23;1171244 wrote:Damnit Pestano. But then, why Hagadone and not Joe Smith with the right handers coming up for the Twins.

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.Glory Days;1171364 wrote: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?
Also, 1st HR from the right side, 4 from the left...Odd power numbers if its supposed to be the other way.

True. If he goes on a tear you become a legendLaley23;1171253 wrote:Come on. I show some faith, put him in my top 10, and he rewards me for my vote of confidence.
2/4, 2R, 2RBI, HR and NO STRIKEOUTS!

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.hoops23;1171365 wrote:1st homer from the right side

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 he could be what we always thought he could be. We won't know till we play him. We don't want to have another Brandon Phillips
