Split Thread Tony Womack Discussion

You all are going to be shocked by how Womack plays this season. He's going to be one of our most productive players relative to his ability.

Based on what?

His long track record of above league average performance? Or his wonderful approach to the game?

Productivity relative to ability...

Kinda like how you have to praise a toddler's crayon drawing where the people have 2 fingers, no necks and hair that looks like an nest of blue snakes because that's the best he can do?

Womack will hit at least .280 this season.

Womack needs to hit at least .300 to be anything that isn't awful. Even then he's a 3rd or 4th best 2nd baseman.

Maybe in Little League, not in the majors. He's the worst player in baseball, including Cuban, Dominican, and Japanese leagues.

By BossHog:I think it's silly the amount of times we've had a perfectly acceptable baseball topic - completely unrelated to said players - and a poster has single-handledly managed to remind everyone that Rich Aurilia and Tony Womack suck. Personally, I'm tired of seeing this because a). it's happening with increased regularly with topics that have absolutely nothing to do with either of these players, and b). I think it detracts from what this board was founded on and still prides itself on: intelligent baseball discussion.
To those of you who have turned this into a Tony Womak bashing thread, thanks for proving Boss' point.

Here's a ray of hope from another thread.

Perhaps Wayne Krivsky will put a stop to the madness.

Just something to think about to the Woemackers from the thread in ORG - Does Womack's ST numbers not look like he may be the Womack of 2004 rather than 2005 which means that he can be useful to the REDS and people should stop whipping him?
