Wright Still Sucks, Rollins rules, & more!

Found May 10, 2007 on Mop Up Duty:
PLAYERS: Jeremy Sowers,  Jimmy Rollins,  David Wright
TEAMS: Cleveland Indians,  Philadelphia Phillies,  New York Mets

After a fifth of the season, we're going back and looking at some pre-season predictions. Some are Wright (har har) and some have been wrong (Sowers) but hey, at least we have the balls to be honest.

  • predicting just 17 HRs for Wright still looks foolish. it's early to be counting chickens.

  • Not to be too cocky here but I've been hearing this same argument over and over again from Mets fan's since I made this prediction in November. If he can get to 10 before the all-star break, than we can talk. But so far, it is what it is.

    Wright = 2 HR

The Good, the Bald, And the Ugly

Via Hot Stove New York  |  May 09, 2007
Bald is beautiful, according to the Mets...though Shawn Green looks like a milk jug with those dumbo ears. Even vets like Tom Glavine got in on the fun. Kinda reminds me of when the Sox cowboy-up-ed in '03.
