Assuming you're not being sarcastic..

John Rodriguez has slugged about .440 since being a Cardinal.

307 ABs, 7 HR, 17 2B, 3 3B (with a .300 AVG)
Thanks for the info...but I was being extremely sarcastic.

Should have used the blue font.

At first, I thought Steverino was suggesting the title of a Current Events Talk Show to be Hosted by Chris Duncan. Chris would take unpopular stances in the attempt to promote debate on controversial subjects.

'This week on Out on a Limb with Chris Duncan: Chris claims that killing cute baby seals is alright by him.'

I took the bet. I think that slugging is the one thing that Duncan will continue to do: Mash the ball.

His average might drop below .250 over that span, but from sheer bulk and strength, he'll keep that slugging% at or over .440.

(chuckle) fair enough. Obviously I'm going to lose the bet; so humor me with one quick question.

If he hits say (the pro-rated 110-AB equivalent of) 25 doubles and 20 homers, but bats .250, do you know what his SLG would be?

I think if Steve is proven wrong, the 87% percent of us who defied logic should get a lifetime supply of red koolaid. 8)

There should be. Preferably something that embarrasses the loser.
