Chase Headley about to be a Yankee...

Jill for the most part I agree but if I'm keeping either one of the two (Johnson / Roberts) I think I'd rather keep Roberts. JMO.

 

I do agree Rick I was only thinking about versatility. Johnson can play 1st, 3rd and outfield while Roberts is strictly a 2nd baseman. Just a question if yankees call up a pitcher for tonight's game who gets sent down?

 

Solarte now batting leadoff for Padres....batting .270 in the NL thus far.

 

...meh.

Solarte with Padres .270 .354 .362 .716

Headley with Yanx . .256 .356 .372 .728

 

And if I can expand on this,

Solarte with Padres = 3 HRs & 15 RBI

Headley with Yanks = 3 HRs & 11 RBI

All in all at this point its pretty even.

 

Update;

...how quickly things can change.


Solarte with Padres .255 .337 .342 .679

Headley with Yanx . .257 .353 .390 .742


...and I gotta say, I've been impressed with Headley's defense. (yeah, I know he made an error last night)

 

Game propaganda gave no credit to Pineda who pitched a damn good game with the offense coming up sucking again.

 

...^^^ Yup, too much focus was made on Headley's error. And I'm sure that if we had been told that the Yanx would hold KC to 1 run (earned or not) we would have liked our chances in last night's game...kinda hard to win any game when the offense only manages 3 hits and 0 runs.
...really felt bad for Pineda.

 

Unfortunately we've seen many good pitching performances go to waste. Pineda pitched another excellent game (ERA down under 2) with nothing to show for it.
