Yeah you're right. He's on pace for what 44 Home runs?

He is having an absolute career year in home runs.

He's also stolen some bases. His batting average is mediocre but he can't be perfect. :)

He's underrated

He hit 28 homeruns in his first full seasons but critics marked him down Alot because of his average, 200 strikeouts and 32 errors but he seems better at those stuff this year

Whoa! I just recently heard this word for probably one of the first times...

What's a platoon? I heard them talking about Pierre becoming a platoon OF. What does that mean?

It means that two people share playing time in one position.
and example would be with the rockies, ryan spilborghs, dexter fowler and seth smith formed one big platoon, really.
andre ethier was platooning last year with somebody, but then he played so well he broke out of it, and became the full-time starter.

Poor Man's Adam Dunn.


And there is no way Aaron Hill is better than Ian Kinsler. Sorry.


I wish Justin Upton would be in the All Star Game.

I didn't vote for Raul, cause he's hurt still. I think.... :mrgreen:

Why not? Offensively, Hill is holding his own against Kinsler so far this season. Hill has more hits which translates to a better average of almost 40 points. Their OBP, SLG, and OPS are very similar. They're equal in home runs. The only category Kinsler beats Hill handily is stolen bases.

No, I was trying to explain it to you. I took exception to your "there is no way" comment. Batting average is one way, by a decent margin.

I think Kinsler is better overall, but Hill's having a great year and should be recognized.

Oh yeah, I was wrong. He's closer than I thought. But I believe Kinsler is better overall.

Hill still should be in the All-Star game, as a coach selection. Right?

Yeah, Hill seems deserving of a spot as the reserve 2B.

Morneau or Big Tex deserves it more than Youkilis.
