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.
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Rolando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Rolando
Though we never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Rolando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Rolando...
Needed him tonight! I"m ok with him in the line up because we have no one else, but he doesn't need to be lead off now.
Drew is up to .627 on the year, and considering the start he had, I think that's pretty decent. Numbers are certainly trending upward.
In a SSS from the 7 hole (33 AB's) he's hitting .333/.389/.545/.934. I hope he continues to thrive from the 7 hole.
Not sure if the 7 hole is the reason (could be that it helped his head), the day off when Heisey played to watch tape and see the uppercut in the swing or if he's just Streaky, but I think Stubbs may be a positive offensive guy for a little while.
The trick will be to see if it lasts past Memorial Day.
All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
I'm just glad he's getting consistent PA. All players need to adjust when they come up to the majors. I don't know if he'll adjust enough to stick, but with his glove and speed, he should get every opportunity to do so.

He has been looking better and better as of late at the plate.

Yep. Been saying it all along. 500-600 ABs this year, hitting lower in the order if he struggles at the top. Development continues at the major league level for almost every player.I'm just glad he's getting consistent PA. All players need to adjust when they come up to the majors.
