Was just the latest Delgado moon shot returning to the Earth's atmosphere.

Oh, that and the door slamming on the Sillies for the NL East!

Delgado's got to get some MVP consideration!

    He really has been a stud since the All Star break.

    Not looking good because it's getting late. Hoping the Brewers backup a bit - could get in that way.
  • He's definitely been hot.

    $10 says he gets nailed for steroids or gets into the media for HGH usage (since there's no reliable test) during this time period sometime in the next 2 years from this date. another $2 if Tatis connected him to his supplier.

    I have no idea what "during this time period sometime in the next 2 years from this date" means, but I'll take that bet anyway. Delgado's recent surge has nothing to do with steroids or HGH -- he is consistently a 2nd half performer. Look it up.

    TheVon,

    Don't confuse Hyperion with facts, he's only interested in hyperbole. image

    dont and done. he's 500 years old and was SHOT, suffering from the affects of a degenerative hip. THAT doesn't go away.

    btw, what's with that link? it reads like gibberish

    That's wrong - Hyperbole does not play for the Phillies...I think he's a backup catcher on the Cardinals.

    Try looking at HR per plate appearance, batting average, obp, slugging, ops . . . it's all higher in the 2nd half.

    marginal, totals all show drops. it's no slam dunk "he's always much better in the 2nd half". no where CLOSE to what he's doing now off a aging torn up hip.

    Is that also the opinion of the same "experts" you cited in that Mets-Brewers matchup in that other thread? image
