Grady Sizemore?

Good detailed stats.

I will explain to you why so many people are pumped up about Sizemore. He has unlimited future potential and is a throwback the way he plays the game. he gives his teammates 100% every minute he is on the field and you will never see him just go through the motions. From everything I have herd he treats all the fans with respect and is a leader in the clubhouse. When his playing career is over you could see him as a manager some day. Players like Sizemore don't come along everyday and he is an asset to the game. I will accept your "thumbs down" and hope that someday he will make a believer out of you as well. Ambrose, a very fair response from you. How about this; he is only 25 years old and a 20-20 player his first two years in MLB, and could go 30-40 this year. He is one of the top three or four defensive outfielders in baseball with one of the best throwing arms. If he were on the Yankees right now Damon would be on the bench. Ask any manager in baseball, and your feelings about him, and you would be in the minority, and maybe none would agree with you. You are not really asking a question to gain ideas from others, you are just looking for people to agree with you.

a million. 5 gadget participant 2. would be a candidate for the for the 40-40 club. 3. provides all of it he has no remember what the situation 4. In 2006 became into the 2d participant ever(first because 1937)to get 25+ homers, 20+ steals, 50+ doubles, and 10 triple in a season. 5. whilst Eric Wedge became into asked the different day if he however Sizemore had hit the ceiling he pronounced " not even close". So Of Wedge is nice how good is he going to be? he's already arguably the appropriate in the league.

12 homeruns is actually a good number, most players make only that much all year and 22 stolen bases is also very high and the throw to first base is very hard to beat out. If youve ever played baseball you would know. The other stats are average and the batting average is even a little above average. if a player is hitting at .250 that is considered about average. Grady Sizemore is a great player and is still at a young age so he has lots of time to get better!!!

From a fantasy point of view, is value is high because of the combination of power and steals that he provides. There aren't many 20/20 players out there, let alone ones with 30/50 potential. For this reason, people speak very highly of him. Fantasy stats have become the first thing that people look to since so many are deeply immersed with their fantasy teams, and Sizemore is a clear example of this as a top-10 fantasy force.

how old are you?

first off his average IS ALMOST 20 POINTS ABOVE THE LEAGUE AVERAGE FOR CENTER FIELDERS.. so that means only a few are hitting higher than him. second his ob% (which is what REAL stat people use to gauge a hitters worth) is almost 4 hundered-he has 44 walks..which tells you about his good eye and he's in the top 10 in runs and stolen bases. asking a leadoff guy to have a 100 rbi's ...tells me you think this is mlb the show or some sort of video game. second he has 12 bombs which puts him (for a leadoff guy now) at 20th in the league..which only has him 3 from being put in 3rd all by himself.

really..please shut up.

as for hafner and martinez being good? well that's when the stolen bases and walks sizmore put ups come into play. they wouldn't have them numbers if grady's not on base.

so again son.

tell your daddy to explain the nu,mbers better to you. youre making a fool of him.

How old is Sizemore? You think this is going to be his best season yet or what? Wait a few years and see what happens bud. He's on pace to have a solid season. He's leading off for a good ballclub, and he's doing what he is paid to do...get on base and get into scoring position. All those runs he has are from getting on base and getting himself into scoring position. Not to mention this guy had 92 extra base hits last season. How many other players had more than that? Have you even seen this guy play defense either? He's a tremendous athlete and he's only 24 years old. Everybody knows he's only going to get better. And by the way...the last time I checked, 26 HR for a leadoff hitter is pretty damn good. I suppose you think Jimmy Rollins and Hanley Ramirez are terrible also?

well he is a leadoff man. so he isnt really always supposed to hit home runs but he has excellent power. he is fast and good at stealing bases. and you cant just expect him to get to the base before the average time it takes for a groundout. I'm sure you couldnt even get to first in 5 seconds. leadoff men usually dont have too many rbi's. if a leadoff man finishes the year with about 75 thats very good. .282 is a decent average. you couldn't even hit .100 i bet. and any leadoff man that hits even 15 homers is good for him. so you need to respect the fact that he is doing all this as leadoff hot batting 4th or 5th.

What do you have so against this kid?

And since when in the hell is .282 a "poor statistic"?

Looks like he's having a pretty good year to me--nothing incredible, just solid numbers.

Get off his ***. Being on it makes you seem like your head is up your own. . . .

Did he run over your dog or something?
