Ryan Howard Blues Train?

Man whens Howard gonna hit? I know its a long season, but he has to be one of the most disappointing first roudners this year.

Anyone think I could trade him for another quality 1B, cuz I don't really have a decent backup.

Probably have to ride out the Ryan Howard Blues Train

    You need to ride out the Howard train to be honest.

    Nobody is going to want Howard who is having a terrible year so far. Howard will turn it around, he just needs to start hitting the ball the other way. Right now he is really trying to pull everything and match Utley's numbers.

    Howard is a better second half hitter anyway. I'm not sure what it is, but he isn't hitting the ball.

    In that hitters park, in that Philly line-up, they can afford to keep him out there even though he isn't hitting. Once he does start to hit, you can bet he is going to produce for you. I say keep him and just ride it out. Its the same way with Hafner.

    Good luck!!

    I would take him on right now in a heartbeat. Don't sell now while his value is low. You really have no choice but to ride it out.
