@AL KOHOLIC: Yeah, Doc and the rest of the guys seem like they're doing a solid job. Good to hear that you're bouncing back from that flood. Didn't see the Manny catch.

@Grey: yeah and did you see Manny barely snag the one an inning earlier?i was ready to watch him do that triple pike roll on the ground again,im about done rebuilding from the flood,and been real busy but i will be drilling you before drafts next year to get a better game plan on sp`s,its been a downfall for years,and ive still won a few and stay in the top 3 regularly,but my pitching,so believe me while ive been busy,ive still been reading,plus doc and the guys are doing great in the football site,just wish you were into football,gurkha and woodford night

@The Dude: Yeah, this is a year in review. Not for next year. If you're moving Pablo down, then Youk gets moved down too.

I’m not sure I buy into where you’ve placed Sandoval. He greatly exceed expectations this year, and the two eventual winners in my two leagues had him in at catcher.

BUT, his raw numbers were not that spectacular in comparison to the other 1B you have listed below him. I’ll give you his AVG was outstanding, but does that make up for the ~20+ runs that others scored, the ~10+ RBI’s or the 5-15 HR’s?

If you took the names away and had me rank top 20 based only on numbers, I’d have to place Pablo’s in the last 3-5 not in the top 10.

This is a year in review right? Not a projection for next year. I see why he was placed as high as he was on your Catcher list (where his true value was), but can’t see his 2009 season as better than most of these 1B.

@Grey:
so , kershaw hits his targeted innings (171)
are you worried about him (ala cole hamels) , for next year ,
if the dodgers go deep this post-season ?

@Elijah: Yes, he's lucky a shirtless Bernazard didn't come after him.

@Grey: Hah. @Votto, he had half of an MVP season, the other half was more or less Metsian.

@big o: BTW, your Cardinals uniform critique made you sound like Tim Gunn.

@big o: That Holliday homer looked like it should've only been out of Coors and Citizen's.

By: big o

big o — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 22:29:54 +0000

and , as i say that ,
holliday goes deep .

also , these cards road uniforms are rather pedestrian .
dingy looking
with horizontal stripes mid-way up their socks ??

@big o: Under 7 makes sense.

By: big o

big o — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 22:26:02 +0000

looks like the phils were taking the correct approach vs street ,
waiting for him to elevate the ball .

******************************
under 7 runs
my choice in wainwright/kershaw
