And he pops out to center. One away.
Me too, not sure if he's a nice guy or not, but his overratedness and inability to field any position competently and desire to swing at every pitch and refusal to take a walk is just against everything I believe a player should be in baseball
just wait a year or two when he's constantly hurt and they're paying him $30 cajillion dollars

lol
i just typed almost that exact thing like 3 posts ago..
it amazes me how teams (not just the cardinals) continue to pitch him away, which is playing right into what he wants to do..
if you bust him inside he'll do EXACTLY what he did in the first AB, try and take the pitch the other way and hit a weak little dribbler to short

Same goes for Aramis. Up and in, and he'll pop up to 3B. Why throw it where he can get his arms extended?

If you throw Fukudome low and away, and tell your LF to play shallow, you can get a fly out 85% of the time.
EDIT: Cha-ching!

I miss the dusty days, no manager in the bigs today can make a team that much worse than what they really are
