    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.

    Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

    I was going to say the same thing Rick but I figured it was sort of obvious. It's not like the guy has been a Red for years and years.

    Beat me to it. Hard to conclude anything from 64 ABs at GABP and 82 ABs away from home.

    So you're saying his career numbers are a better predictor than his 2008 splits?

    It just seems to me that GABP doesn't benefit hitters in any way other than HRs.

    agree. why would it? i don't think we have less foul territory than other parks.

    GABP really helps the power numbers of the line drive type hitters. doubles turn into homers that just clear the wall

    Being a small ballpark with less OF room to cover, this ballpark would hurt the gap hitters whereas Coors field with its wide power alleys would be a boon to extra base hits into the alleys.

    Small sample size or not, product of home park or not, he's been an EXTREMELY productive player for this team. That cannot be argued, whether any of you agreed with the signing or not.
