Nice to see the tie there Zeke as I also have the Phillies as I posted in Powerz thread because I looked into your statistical analysis of the heavy left handed hitting Phillies vs a right hander as well as Myers dominance lately. What I have a ? for you about is J-Roll. I drafted him high in my fantasy league and he has seemed to have a dissapointing season atleast power wise. As he just flied out I was wondering how has he been handling the pressure this year. Last year he carried my team during the fantasy playoffs down the stretch this year he had been in a horrible slump until recently. JW what your opinion of him is this year?
injury got him off to bad start
Even bigger than that, there was a point in time when jimmy rollins was a classic leadoff hitter who had some pop.....now, last season convinced everyone around him, and most importantly himself, that as a leadoff guy, he can get the big hit, or the big homer whenever he wants to.......and i really think he forgot about what it takes to be a successful leadoff hitter.....Yes he can hit 20-30 homers in this stadium, and get a ton of triples and doubles, but that stuff seemed to just come naturally for him be4, whether hes trying to hard, or changed his swing I couldnt tell u, but of late hes been hot at times , and then simply does things like what just happened.....they merely needed a productive out and he pulls a "ryan howard", and ks, or pops out harmlessly.
thats my take
u know ilove him, but u will get no argument from me, instea dof jimmy rollins numbers, he has put up eugenio velez-like numbers..lol
hes been much better in the last 4 weeks
i really like what myers has shown us in the 5th and 6th innings.....
quality starts are 3 er thru 6 inn....this is no complete game shutout...but its not a bad performance at all....
myers cruises in the 7th, i m racking my brain for the mathcups in 8th for what would be best possible scenario if you could have 3 diffrent pitchers throw to 3 diff hitters, to be honest, id have myers pitch the 8th and simply bring lidge into face willingham at end of inning if it comes to that,
STEVE BEDROSIAN STYLE
THAT BEING SAID, I TOTALLY SEE ROMERO STARTING THE 8TH TO PITCH TO GONZO, lefty lefty style, and they always leave him in, if they do that, uggla could do far more damage off romero, but romero shld face jacobs no doubt
