Garret Atkins

Friday, January 15th, 2010

Was terrible on the road to begin with, do not see things getting better now that he is away full time away from Coors in baltimore. Can’t ignore his steep stats decline across board last 3 years. He has just lost it.

Ian Stewart

Monday, September 28th, 2009

Ian Stewart is basically going to be Adam Dunn, which is not a bad thing. Has a big long uppercut swing, and regardless of showing signs in the minors that he can hit better than .240, he has a much better chance to hit 40 homers than to hit .240. He remains too impatient at the plate, but does hit alot of bad balls for hits.

David Wright

David Wright  has lost major bat speed, and his nemisis all year has been his inability to get around on the fastball, and that is the root cause of his severe power decline. At his age that is a skill that certainly can get fixed.

Juan Francisco

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

This kid had some nice power in the minors, and the Reds seem on giving him a chance in the outfield even though he can also play 3rd. But Rolen and his money make it hard for him to capture 3rd base.  He is a wild swinger sort of like Vlad Guerrero, but can really knock em when connecting.
