i have been workin alot of hours this summer so havent read much.why are there sooo many denorfia cracks ???from comments and sigs you would think this kid has an A-ROD type opinion of himself.
are you guys just havin fun or does he think he really is "superman"?
also how is his arm compared to kearns(seriuosly please)?? range ?? speed ??
thanx
Well, I am definitely not the expert, but living in Louisville, I have seen him play 3 times this year. From what I have seen (and read) I would say:
Range: Deno
Outfield Coverage (Speed): Deno
Arm: Kearns
Hit for Average: Deno
Hit for Power: Kearns
Basepath Speed: Deno
That about covers what little knowledge that I have. Hope that helps.

A great arm is useless without accuracy... which has been part of kearns problem this season. I trust Krinsky's judgment of players talent and he thinks he is ready to be the primary rightfielder.

Denorfia has made all the plays the last two nights.

I think it started because there were a bunch of people saying Deno should be up here because he can do a lot of things at an above average level. So it basically got carried away that Deno could do everything, hit, field, pitch, be the entire bullpen....
I have to question whether his MLB ability actually is proven being that he has yet to play a full season. I'd like to see just that before i call him proven.
To Kearns defense, he threw a runner out at home tonight from CF on a very nice one hopper. Lopez also commited his 15th error of the season.
I haven't been around here long, but I don't think any of it has anything to do with Deno's opinion of himself or his attitude. It's kind of like a cult following he has though, I'm a fan of the show 24 and people do the same type of thing with that show's character, like the top 1000 Chris Denorfia facts and things like that. It's pretty funny I think.

Deno is the best player
Ever

Deno has a pretty good arm though, IIRC he was rated by BA with the best arm in the minor league system pre-Bruce.
That is correct, although when he got that honor, they couldnt spell his name correctly. The spelled it Donorfia.
So, Chuck Norris pitches to Deno. What happens?
