Kris Bryant Called Up

[Navel Lint]

But a different kind of offense. Hit the ball hard but carry a .220 BA, no problem. Kingman and his .236 would be no problem today.

Check out all those great Mets fans in the seats.

uribe is playing because he can actually play 3rd base. crawford- there is ZERO i mean ZERO reason guerro isn't playing for him. the dodgers may win- but i have never- including the yanks- seen a team just waste money like them. btw- who signed crawford to the worst contract in baseball- oh wait it was theo. but theo learned from that one- and he may have been forced into it.

I get the impression they signed Olivera primarily to keep him away from San Francisco and San Diego.

There's a nice feature story on Kris Bryant in the May 11th Sports Illustrated. I especially like this part of the article:

Many times he's stepped into the batter's box to face a pitcher he grew up watching: "The other day in Pittsburgh, it was A.J. Burnett, and I'm think, Man, I had this guy on my fantasy team in college."

How can you NOT love a guy who was playing fantasy baseball just a few short years ago!!!
