Infante - 50 Game Suspension...

No, but some of you weren't surprised when you first read the subject line, and I'm sure one or two of you may have even crapped your pants.

Seriously, how long will this last???

There's two ways to look at it....

One- He only hit seven home runs last year, but six of them came during the last two months of the year.
This could foretell that he's found a 'power stroke'.

Two- Even last year, four of his seven homers came in two games. Meaning that his power comes in spurts.
He could just as easily have a four month stretch where he only hits one home run like last year.

Very funny Poopy, I just bid around $400 for Infante didn't want to read that!

He may be on Flinstone vitamins like Sammy Sosa said he was...

I was reading your post - must admit, kind of made me think of this....

It will definitely be interesting to see how it turns out.
I want to say, 12 possibly, but you never know!

Yes, I'm all in on Infante, although now I am very limited in funds for my OC league. I'm not doing so hot in that league as it is with Ellsbury gone now so I needed someone. My head says 15 HRs for him this year, my heart says 35.

I just picked up Infante for $70 FAAB and dropped Alexi Casilla for him. He does hit his HR's in bunches(I believe his multi-HR game other night was 7th time he did it in career) but I didn't get him for the power(although I won't give back any HR's he gives me ). Can't see him becoming a slugger after having only 56 career HR in 3197 AB's with only one year(2004-16 HR) in double digits. I got him for his BA; looking for 295+ which gives me a cushion to add a low BA/HR guy in FAAB later in the yr if I need one.

I remember when Ryan Theriot hit 2 Hrs and everyone was saying how he found some power stroke.

It's two weeks into the season. Wait until July
