That HR may be one of the prettiest balls off the bat all year.

He's back

Hopefully this is the start of a hot streak and a great finish to the season.  If he can get up to the .290 range for the season, that'd be quite a feat.

I remember a few years ago when Davis had 3 homers against the Pirates and then went right back to sucking.  Hope this isn't the same thing.

Manny has a level of bat control and sound mechanics that this shouldn't happen.  As long as his head is right I full expect him to go back to being the hitter we've seen the past couple seasons.  

I think you'll see Manny finish around .260 .330 .490 with about 35 home runs. Down year overall for him, but still a very good year.

Don't look now, but he hasn't been great since the ASB last year.  

Honestly, as long as the power numbers are there and there's a good separation between the batting average and on base percentage, I'm fine with something like you've outlined.

Manny raised his OPS from .706 to .753 today.    Let's hope this is the start of a hot streak -- he's way overdue.

I remember one year Eddie Murray had something like 2 HR at the end of May and ended up with around 30 HR.  Hopefully Manny can go one a similar run.

[Frobby]

After last night's barrage, Manny is hitting .304/.333/.643 in June.

Manny put the team on his back last night, like a superstar player should.  That was impressive to see.  That 3-run HR, right before he hit it, I'm sitting there thinking, "This is a time where he needs to get the big hit, and he'll probably pop it up trying to hit it 430'."

Oops, lol.....

I still think they've got to move him, but man, games like last night sure give me pause...

Are the top 6 in exit velocity on grounders. Interesting we have two of the top 3. ?

If 95mph + is a HHB what's his HHB/PA?

[webbrick2010]

.223/.297/.435/.731

18th out of 22 qualifying ML 3B

What team would consider Manny a major upgrade to what they already have?

No chance that he is dealt in July, hope he has a fast start next year and plays a good SS to increase his value. Doesn't hit enough to be a 3B

Oh brother. I hope he stars at 3rd. Who was the last good 3rd baseman for the O's before Manny? Cal? I know Manny is struggling.
