Hey, just wanted to let you know your card is on the way. Hopefully it will get there pretty soon, especially since Cruz hit #5 last night.

Not even close

nah. if they're still entirely unproductive in 2-3 more weeks, then I'd start to worry.

They just need to be sat down take perspective, and adjust. They'll be fine.

Bruce actually is 3/9 in his last 2 games....not horrible, might be coming around already.

Bruce had a .201 BABIP in the first half last year and has a .167 so far this year all while bettering his LD%. If he keeps this up, he will easily be the unluckiest player in the history of baseball. I definitely still see him as a future superstar (although I may be alone in this).

Cito is killing Snider.

The last couple of days he's had Molina and Montgomery for protection. There's just no reason to pitch to him. He's not super patient, but he just keeps walking..

I'd be tempted to throw him into the number two spot instead of BAUTISTA or GONZALEX so that he sees some fastballs infront of Lind.

It would be like batting him infront of the pitcher in the National League...



on the astros.

Bruce hit .367 in the second half last season.

He seems to be a second half guy, but needs a full season to tell.

Plus he's still young, so he may be a later developer like Howard.

Why do so many people give up or lose faith on 22 year olds who have never played an entire season in the bigs
