...Continue To Affect the Values of His Rookie Cards?
The guy hit another inside-the-park homer yesterday (I swear I heard the Benny Hill music playing as he rounded third), his second in two years, but his power numbers are down significantly. He has claimed that he's turned vegetarian for multiple reasons, but one of them was because he wanted to improve on the defensive side. In my opinion, he's been pretty mediocre on defense this year.
So, is this guy as good as people expected him to be, or was he just another hype machine?

<< <i>I think he still has lots of potential. But IMO he needs to lose more weight. How many salads does it take to offset the meat that he doesn't eat anymore?

He was asked a little while back if he's getting tired of salad and vegetables and his response was, "last time I checked, cake ain't meat."
Yikes!
Go Brewers!

That's sig line material there! I can't believe how long it took him to get around the bases last night. It was pretty funny to watch.

As far as value, I'd say big potential. He's having a slow year hitting, but there's plenty left in the season. And his numbers aren't anything that I would call "bad." We'll see what the Crew does after arbritration. I hope they keep him around. Him and Braun could be sweet building blocks. And I say they make a bid for Ichiro. Now that would be one fast outfield; Braun, Ichiro, and Hart!!!!

<< <i>I still can't believe he has two inside the park home runs in his career. >>
Although did you see the right fielder for the Jays on the one from yesterday? The ball was just sitting under the padding on the wall and he stood there with his arms up wondering where it was. Geez, I bet he falls for that disconnected thumb trick everytime, lol.
