Reddick K to BB ratio is better than it was last year this season. Never mind the fact more than 81+ games a season he hits in canyons like Oakland and Seattle.

He hit better in Oakland last year than on the road....by 50 points of OPS....

His last 52 games last year... .209/.249/.374 add that to this year? And you basically have a half season of him hitting like complete dog shit...

He's a good platoon OF'er...which is precisely what scouts thought of him at the time of the trade...

And what I meant by "overall" with Reddick, his above average defense, arm strength...etccc in RF over compensates for his Arencibianess.

Reddick is an above average defender now?


He will be so happy to hear this..

Yup... He's lucky the ref stopped the fight when he did. If they noticed that in between rounds, he probably would had it stopped and lost via TKO..

That dude is an animal! I understand adrenaline stops your brain from understanding pain but damn that shit was sick!!

I just throw lineups in these days for MLB and see what happens, if I have time in the late afternoon I make the changes, due to weather, or late scratches, some days I just dont have the time.

i agree that he's a RF'er than Arencibia is a catcher (all around)...but he's little more than a platoon OF;er....due to his streakyness...

No...I just knew how to accurately measure the effect steroids have on their numbers...

Cervelli surprised me...must have take gallons of the shit this offseason....


And before you go crazy here...I am waiting for Nava's 50 game suspension for the same reason...

Except that Cervelli was ACTUALLY linked to Biogenesis. Cano, too. His 600 foot homers are a bit of a tell.

Given Hamilton's mediocrity since joining the Angels, is it fair to assume that Angels do not play with honor or tradition?

I'm assuming the gold glove voters also fucked things up giving Reddick one last year?

Shouldn't his batting average be higher than? Lots of room to spray some hits around in those ballparks....

And he IS walking more, but his .260OBP tells me it ain't helping enough!

Rotoworld had Hamilton ranked at 77. Seems even that was too high to take him

You know I am just giving you shit since everyone made a point to brag about their victories.

Thankfully for Oakland, they're playing well right now in spite of Reddick's struggles. Uggla lead the NL In walks last year and barely hit over .220, if that means anything.

Josh Reddick also won a Gold Glove this year for being popular, had nothing to do with his actual defense, defensive WAR, range and 15 out field assists.

He won it just like Derek Jeter won his, on name recognition. Just ask Snoogins.

Nope....we agree on his defensive abilities...I was comparing his arm to Dwight Evans back in the day...and still do...it's THAT good.....and he has the range of an average center fielder...

makes occasional bonehead routes on some flyballs and misplays them as a result...but he's a plus glove in RF...

He's just a horribly inconsistent hitter at the plate...

Remember when everyone made fun of snoogins for saying josh reddick really wasn't as good as his stats showed last year?


I'm sure you all conveniently forgot.

I sure hope you wouldn't have the gall to bring something like this up

Shall we rehash all our past Sanchez discussions?
