NY guy. The type of player that I probably would have been if I had major league talent - - good eye, hits the ball hard all over, some pop, no real position to speak of.................plus, it's just a good story. What were the odds of him being Batting Champ back when the season started?

I was expecting more of an anti-Ichiro theme.

You're a baaaaaaad boy Buzz. Ichiro would be my 2nd choice. I do not want Juan Gone to win it. Giambi would be cool - Alomar too. |

One of the few that he wasn't. This was the Frankie C, Kapler, and others for Juan Gone deal.

I'd say C-E-D-A-B. How about you? PS - Yes, Net, this pertains to this thread. |

Agreed. B is the better hitter when he plays, but A clearly has more at-bats (hence the big RC gap and the smaller RARP gap).

Guessing:
A - Ichiro B - Catalonotto C - Giambi D - Boone E - Rodriguez And I'd rank them CEDAB too.

So, is Rob saying that Frankie, percentage-wise, is playing better than Ichiro? Or, am I saying that...........
