The hamate definitely looks like a worse spot.

The hamate injury has a reputation for sapping a hitter's power.

Good to know this isn’t as that.  

 

And he wasn’t playing MLB this year at all anyway right?   So should be no big deal in the long run....

Mountcastle returned today — 3 for 4!

Does it have a reputation for helping an infielder's throwing?

Mountcastle back to raking

He had two months to think about Buck's free swinger lecture, and zero strikeouts and 2 walks in the first 5 games are a nice beginning.

If I had said that, it would have been more negative reps.  As Jim Palmer always says sometimes, it's all in the delivery.  

Definitely a popularity contest here. Some guys get rep no matter what they say. Others get basically ignored even when they post good comments. Certain guys hold a grudge for a long time and smear you at every opportunity. Best tip just ignore the feature!

Yep, but that's pretty much true everywhere.

Gotta admit, I almost lost my lunch when I saw the thread title back at the top. I'll remember to refresh the page more often.

So what you're saying is, your reputation affects your reputation.

One of my favorite sayings to my wife is deal with the world the way it is, not the way it should be.  

She will get it eventually.

Yep, that's exactly what I do. I do not pay any attention to that points system. It is irrelevant to me.

He had two doubles tonight, one was very close to being a HR.
