Eh. Choo is a really good player, but I don't underestimate Martin's potential to also become a premiere leadoff hitter. He's made quite a showing in that spot for the past several weeks.

Martin will be out shining choo as early as next year.

Martin has potential and is still young.

I'm just having fun with the internet tough guys who have a problem
with players who are smart enough to avoid getting thrown out of games.

Internet tough guy? I'm just calling a spade a spade. If you don't want to get thrown out take your medicine and go down to first. But quit pretending to be a bad ass and take two steps toward the mound and wait for the umpire to come "stop" you. You just look like a bitch the 5th or 6th time.

What does it make you look like to type that Choo is a pussy? Hint: I bolded the answer.

So I can't call a guy out for doing something that makes him a pussy without being an Internet tough guy? Yeah, I'm not buyin it.

Shin-Soo Choo is smart enough to know his value to a team (playing in MLB's toughest division).

Choo knows to step forward and posture enough not to get thrown out... but... enough to encourage a pitcher's over-reaction that will cause the opponent to be thrown out.

Choo is too smart and too valuable to his team to make an over-reaction to a little ball hitting him.

Choo's tough... he's been hit a league leading 23 times and still has the 4th best OBP in the majors.

Choo ain't worried.

Yeah I'm not buying that at all. You are quite the homer.

I think that the answer to that question depends on how you treat people face-to- face. For example, if you would call Choo a pussy to his face, then you are not only an internet tough guy, but a genuine tough guy. LOL

I would have no qualms telling him that doing that after 5 or 6 times it just makes him look ridiculous. I don't walk up to people and say insulting things all the time if that's what you're asking, but if I were talking to him and it came up, sure I'd tell him what I thought. I don't think that makes me a "tough guy". I do think it makes me honest.

It is certainly not a fact that Martin will become the player that Choo is. If you have seen Martin play for the past month or so, however, thinking that that is possible is certainly not laughable.

What the heck are you talking about. Choo gets hit every day, and I have never seen him do anything but go to 1st base

Is this Leonys Martin? Because he's been hitting like crap for the past few weeks.

Yes he's slumping a bit, but he's facing a lot of lhp and he's been a little streaky this year. The talent is certainly there.
