I want to see Carp or Evans hitting pinch hit homeruns for the Mets in September, I do.

I want to see Carp or Evans hitting pinch hit homeruns in October!

LOL at Ellis

I underestimated your brilliance. Never again.

(Jose Coronado fell out of his own tree, by the way)

Carp was in a huge slump, but broke out of it tonight.

Murphy homered.

Run EMC is still killing it over all.

Fernando!: .250/.280/.350/.630 (started off horrible but is picking it up)

:[

Fransicso?!: .297/.327/.426/.753 — 18 y/o catcher in A-ball, it’s impressive

:)

Thanks.

I like the power Francisco is already showing. .426 isn’t anything to sneeze at.

I would like to see power, like Lunk said. But honestly, as long as he stays healthy, the dude is going to hit. He’s too talented. I want a season of health and a bunch of at-bats above all else.

Did Kay offer one of those classic non-apology apologies? I can’t remember. Those are always great.

Yeah he basically said for anyone who took me seriously I apologize.

It would be so unbelievably great to develop a young catcher. And the scouting reports say he has a CANNON for an arm.

lol, a coronado never falls far from the tree…

BTW, my friend Giuseppe says hello! ;)

LOL

Of course he did, Doc.

I could kiss you if I wasn’t already balancing 86 and pj

Two brilliant alter-egos

Didn’t they also say he has a cannonball for an ass?

Don’t get fresh danny….

The problem I have, Danny, is that the longer THM doesn’t hit for power, the less likely he’s going to. His “projection” is all over the place, anywhere from 15 to 40+ homeruns a season.

Comment posted by Danny on May 8, 2008 at 12:39 am (#685987)

Yes, he’s a large young man

18 years old and 6′2″, 230

Power doesn’t always come fast though, Lunk.

Miguel Cabrera hit 9 Hrs in 489 ABs in High-A ball as a 19 year-old. Fernando! has time to show power.

That’s just more Francisco for me to love.

Hopefully THM doesn’t get as fat as Miguel.

Comment posted by Danny on May 8, 2008 at 12:43 am (#685991)

If Francisco?! keeps this up, he is going to rocket up the prospect radar.

Francisco isn’t even as fat as Miguel. Fernandez has a ways to go before then.

How much longer will it take for him to get sent up to High A ball?
