Answer because people who know how to evaluate a pitcher’s stuff, including Brad Ausmus, MUST have thought that Lidge’s troubles are JUST mechanical, that he was actually fine and not injured, that he did NOT have “confidence” problems or need psych meds and that he was worth spending the 5 mill on.Here’s what Ausmus told replica A Lange & Sohne 115.021 Men's watch radio:(click on the radio link I can’t directly post the audio link)IF the problem is that hitters can easily identify the slider, then yes, that IS a serious problem, as Brad has not been able to develop new pitches.
I'm just NOT used to this rallying and coming from behind to, you know, like WIN.Last year, the Astros did it, I think, twice, and in 08, 3 times and this is all YEAR.I mean, the Astros are FINALLY playing exciting baseball and I no longer feel even slightly tempted to listen to Husband who always want to turn off the game the replica Longines L5.158.4.16.6 watch minute the oposition takes the lead.It really was an exciting game.Looked to me as if the ballpark was slightly more occupied tonight I know the announced attendance is 2000 fewer people, but judging by bods in seats, there seemed to be more folks.
Your question, of course, is, if Biggio is not in the starting lineup, who will lead off? Well, a lead-off person should have a decent OBP (at LEAST .350) with a decent walk rate, so that OBP is NOT the same as BA and not be so slow (Jeremy Giambi, that is) that he is at risk of being thrown out in a lot of DPs.It would be REAL nice if he can steal bases, like at least 15 20 a year, with a success rate of at least 75% replica Raymond Weil 4878-ST-00668 Men's watch it would also help if he can hit if bases are NOT empty.These days, people are WAY too obsessed with HR, but the job of the leadoff man is NOT to hit HRs, it is to get on base and score runs, so personally I don't care if he hits ONLY singles or walks as long as he is a good base runner and has a high OBP.
