Am I the only one that feels that Beltran, when healthy, could be the Mets best leadoff batter? I understand about how much he is being paid and he is supposed to be the three hitter, but with as much power as we have I think him in the leadoff spot would be best for the team.

You certainly aren't the only one that thinks that. Beltran would probably be a fine leadoff hitter.

anybody but reyes.

BP did a study in BBTN which said that lineups dont matter much UNLESS you do something moronic. batting reyes in the one hole constitutes moronic. loduca #2 seems a little odd also, but whatever at least they dont have wright batting 7.

putting the 06 version of bonds on when 1st base is occupied is retarded.

Bonds' BA is up to .231, and his SLG .462. The "06" Bonds is probably not that far off from the "05" Bonds...

And his OBP is .500+ or something. I'll take it.

It was great when Bonds was 2-for-12 with 8 walks and a .500 OBP

There was a period of time last year when Brian Giles reached base safely for 3 weeks straight and had an OBP of something like .850.

The best lines are 0-1, 3 BB which I keep seeing Brian Giles and Jason Bay put up. The difference is that Jason Bay is a lot better and faster baserunner (nearly stole at a 100% success rate last year with 20+ steals, only caught once).

Jason Bay is the new Brian Giles - hopefully Bay isn't caught playing on a [censored] team for the rest of his life. To this day I mourn the loss of Brian Giles from the Indians, but there was absolutely nowhere to play the kid.

OT - speaking of Jason Bay, whats up with Canadians getting a late start on baseball...? Gagne, Bay, Matt Stairs, all starting peaking in their late 20's.

It's a shorter season up north. See also: Larry Walker.
