The dude's hitting .298 with a .553 slugging percentage. Oh, he's got a .298 OBP, too? Hmm, no need to walk, he should just hit .350.Skyhttp://skyking162.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7965585998403674176.post-62368182427885307992008-04-21T16:58:00.000-04:002008-04-21T16:58:00.000-04:002008-04-21T16:58:00.000-04:00Okay, sure. But you could say that about pretty much anything at this point. And I can't just shut the blog down for the first two months of the season, that wouldn't work.Vegas Watchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02353166004125421683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7965585998403674176.post-12675804992695950462008-04-21T16:56:00.000-04:002008-04-21T16:56:00.000-04:002008-04-21T16:56:00.000-04:00I posted this over at Shyster...<BR/><BR/>Small sample size alert. Dusty may be partly to blame, but to say that he created the problem is a stretch. Probably mostly due to randomness and the difficulty of the transition to facing much better pitchers.Bobby Shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03280124122225159775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7965585998403674176.post-1528335691120930972008-04-21T16:29:00.000-04:002008-04-21T16:29:00.000-04:002008-04-21T16:29:00.000-04:00Seems to me that they were only successful when they were the Haitai Tigers. They haven't really been good since they moved, or changed their name, or whatever.Vegas Watchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02353166004125421683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7965585998403674176.post-45757639144797935142008-04-21T15:46:00.000-04:002008-04-21T15:46:00.000-04:002008-04-21T15:46:00.000-04:00It could be worse for Choi, he is playing in his hometown for, according to wikipedia, the most successful Korean league team, and finally he gets to play with Lima Time and Jae-Weong Seo, this doesn't seem so bad at all. He should be thanking DustyAramnoreply@blogger.com
