  • 2k11 Aramis Ramirez

    200 at bats. 2HR and 21 RBI. I believe he has been healthy this year so wheres the power? Did this guy just fall off a cliff or can we expect some production over the next 4 months?

        well, at least you can't say he's one of those guys who only produces when his next contract is on the line. :/

          June: .296 avg, 8 HR, 21 RBI, 17 R (and another HR and a couple RBI today)
          In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

              Anyone noticing how hot he's been lately? I picked him up in a trade right after Adrian Beltre went down. I was hoping for him to just hold the fort, but he's far exceeded my expectations.

                    This is why folks hold on to proven hitters during early season slumps. He and Uggla are validations of the don't sell low mantra and those who mock early season doom and gloomers. However, Adam Dunn is the other end of things. Sometimes hitters don't flip that switch, and we hold on to those rocks until we drown. If we could figure out the hows and whys of slumps and recoveries, we'd be in good shape. I'm sure smarter folks than me here can break down the underlying data to show us why Ramirez and Uggla figured it out and why a guy like Dunn has not--besides the easy "he's fat" proclamations.

                      Dunn is the very end of things. Guy in my AL only league was receiving offers for Dunn in May and early June (it was known he'd be dumping early) but didn't think they were good enough so he held out for an offer he liked. The trade deadline has come and gone and he still has Dunn.

                      I picked up Ramirez in a deal probably just as he was starting to pick it up and he's been amazing for me. His stats for me: 243 AB, 20 HR, 57 RBI, 44 R, .337 AVG. If I didn't own Braun and Tulo his half a season would be the most productive on my team.
                      I'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.
