I assume you are talking about Alex Gonzalez, cause thats his OPS after just over 200 at bats this year. However, thats one-third of a season AND considering his highest OPS in any year prior to this year was .758 and since he's only been over .700 twice, yup twice, in his 9 + year career I think we can assume its not staying at .837 for the year.

So you are absolutely right - they don't grow on trees. And the Reds don't have that tree. They barely have that branch. Marathon, not a sprint. Marathon.

Well, we do right now. I said he's OPSing .837. It's a present tense thing.

I never intended to suggest he has done it before (or will, in fact, continue to do so).

Good to see Hamilton with a typical Josh Hamilton at bat.....works the pitcher and an added bonus, draws a walk.
