Doubtful I know given his K rate but if he can bring his average up to the .260s he hit in the minors maybe he hits a few more dingers to get to 25+. One can hope anyways.Olliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13985806525460388793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207681.post-59593450513509213302012-01-17T17:04:35.317-08:002012-01-17T17:04:35.317-08:00Yay Clippy.

I remember his first game in the majors, pitching for the Yankees against the Mets - got the win and hit a double as well. Followed him to the Nats.JDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00482308758790559807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207681.post-47592729350897345212012-01-17T13:30:37.214-08:002012-01-17T13:30:37.214-08:00That's an interesting guess, because Ramos is ...That's an interesting guess, because Ramos is about the only guy on the team besides Zim who doesn't strike out like crazy. If he got a little lucky on balls in play, got enough time off with Flores around to stay strong, he could hit .300. <br /><br />I think Burnett will have a much better year. No real reason to think it except how inconsistent relievers' numbers can be.blovy8https://www.blogger.com/profile/06888192019412533415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207681.post-60937044494776431152012-01-17T07:34:40.863-08:002012-01-17T07:34:40.863-08:00Stat-wise there isn't anyone that stands out (...Stat-wise there isn't anyone that stands out (good or bad). I'd say the best bet on the offense is Ramos. I think he could come real close to hitting .300 next season. If he can keep that power where it is it could be a special season. Pitching wise I think Detwiler could be a pleasant surprise if someone goes down early.Harperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07738813756060133236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207681.post-63028880946179873642012-01-17T07:14:44.504-08:002012-01-17T07:14:44.504-08:00It's always a pretty safe bet to assume the pe...It's always a pretty safe bet to assume the people who had great years will regress. I mean, if you're wrong, then you're still happy. On the flip side, betting on someone to have a break-out year could end in bitter disappointment. But that's why those bets are more gutsy. So who has a better year in 2012 than 2011? Werth presumably, but it would be hard to be worse. Zimmerman too, but that's just assuming he plays most of the year. Do you see anyone actually making a big leap?Donaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12295227567170577873noreply@blogger.com
