Yeah and how many homeruns went out of the park because of the winds. It's a moot point IMO.

No you're not getting it. You brought the conversation to something it never was. Look back at my first post, all I said is I'd sacrifice some of that on base percentage for a higher batting average...
He isn't a good hitter. He's average. And you don't pay guys 10m a season to be average.
Not when he's suppose to knock runs in. He's failing to get the job done. 6 out of the top 8 offensive teams have 4/5 hitters who hit .290 plus. There is a direct correlation to driving in runs and...
It's funny you mention the Yankees and Red Sox, because both teams 4/5 hitters are hitting .289 or better. That's a whole what 70 points better than Pena at a minimum.
There's no reason to put...
Are you kidding me? The object of baseball is to score more runs than the opponent. See?
HIS end game is to get on base. Which is why he shouldn't be hitting in the middle of the order. Bat him...
Yeah if you put Pena in the 6/7/8 spot he's been our 2nd best hitter. But he's batting 4/5 not anywhere near the position in the batting lineup he needs to be.
If you're trying to tell me Carlos Pena only comes up to the plate with a runner on, 1 out of 20 ABs, I want some of what you're smoking. As long as someone is on base, a single is exponentially...
Except his position in the lineup is to knock in runs more so than get on base. I'll take a higher Avg, sacrificing some OBP from my #4/#5. I by no means am saying OBP is a bad thing. I'm just saying...
Fire Hendry.
You're shocked no one wants our over payed and under performing players? Seriously?
Hendry must go.

Anyone think it's a coincidence that Ramirez heated up after he started to get some protection from Pena?
Can't be worse than some of the people on the staff.
20 game win streak here we come.
Pena and Aramis have some freaking power the last two or so weeks.
I turned it to the game. Boom Pena answers with a 2 run shot.
Mmm gas station pizza. About as good as the Cubs.
I love how the Red Wings have the top owner, but the Tigers are 16th. Yet they are owned by the same family. Not to mention how Tampa Bay a recent expansion team is above the Red Wings when the...
You'd think we just won the World Series with those prices.
Not a big fan of It's Always Sunny
It seemed like they were trying to pitch around him, why even chance it. Even though the ball was clearly out of the zone low, Pujols showed why he is great.
Chilango2's tweet is great.
I'm pretty sure Marshalls up for Berkman if Albert gets on.
