    Jerry Hairston Jr appreciation thread

    Not a game thread, just a thread appreciating what Hairston has done in his tenure as a Red.
    “I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”

    I'll take some more bad routes in CF for some hits. He's definatley provided the spark the Reds needed.

    You've found your new Jorge Cantu.

    (BTW: Tonight's performance has probably guaranteed Hairston at least 3 weeks of PT)

    Say hello to your new everyday CF and leadoff man, until he starts sucking (which I am sure he will).

    He did more tonight than Castro did all season.

    I'm saying, he could pull a Patterson for the next 2-3 weeks and still keep living off this opening game performance.

    He no Patterson. Patterson swing is atrotious (sp)
    I have been loving him from early on. Lot of doubters, but as the crafty lefthander says just look at the back of the baseball card and you'll see how they will do over the year. He's been very nice for us. He's the Freel type. Just gives us a spark and this team needs that.

    If that's the case, Hairston is due for a serious decline.

    Well, that was a quote from the Crafty left hander!
    Let's just say he's not always so good with predictions....

    Because after looking at his career numbers, I'm going to say he doesn't keep hitting like that.

    Great game tonight though, just what this team needed

    So far, so good. However, I remember the spectacular 1st game back for Neon Deion in 2001. I am taking nothing for granted!

    That was definitely a strange moment in time.

    Nice night with the bat but I hope we never see him in CF again.
