Does he have a cannon of an arm from the OF?

 

Had had 7 or 8 outfield assists with Memphis.. not sure.. about his defense though

Another HR for Ankiel this afternoon off Derek Lowe.

Might be more like a shotgun.

This is great :)

I love Ankiel so much. How could you not root for this guy after what he has gone through? I loved having him here in Memphis to watch, but it was about damn time they called him up. This guy is just a flat out baseball player. I mean, how many guys have started as both a pitcher and an OF in the big leagues?

Now we just need him to lead them on a winning streak taking them past the Cubs...

I'm definitely rooting for the Cardinals to win the NL Central. I don't know what it is, but the Brewers have just started to piss me off this season. Probably because I know some smug fans of theirs, but still..

Ankiel appears done for the day, as he made the last out of the 7th and it's 10-2 Cardinals. He went 1 for 4 with a double, run scored, and drew a walk. Off day by his standards lately, but the Cards looking good and he still had a nice game.

It's just pissing me off that they won't put the Cubs away.

Everytime I see an article with Ankiel in it, I think... I hope the Sox do this with Wes Whisler, and do it before he wastes too much more time pitching.

 

George Sisler? :P

His last name isn't Ruth, is it? :P
