May 12, 200817 yr I was watching a game yesterday, either on ESPN or flipping past the Cubs game, and an announcer said that Berkman was 18 for his last 24, then he proceeded to go 2 for 3 yesterday. Thats ridiculous
May 13, 200817 yr Author He went 3-4 tonight with two more extra-base hits. His batting average is up to .393, and his slugging percentage is an even .800. May Numbers: 39 AB .641 BA 1.205 SLG .689 OBP 5 HR 7 2B 13 RBI 16 RUNS The guy is clearly out of his mind.
May 13, 200817 yr there are so many guys in the NL having MVP type years its ridiculous, especially when considering the fact that no offensive players in the AL are having typical MVP type years (hamilton youk manny or quentin...but probably cliff lee) in the NL you have utley berkman chipper burrell dlee hanley ramirez and even nate mclouth and ryan ludwick all having pretty ridiculous years
May 15, 200817 yr 2 for 4 w/ a homer and a steal. The guy is unreal. Houston has him for a steal, too. His contract averages about $14 mil per year. For the numbers he puts up, that's a great deal.
May 16, 200817 yr QUOTE (jackie hayes @ May 15, 2008 -> 07:04 PM) 2 for 4 w/ a homer and a steal. The guy is unreal. Houston has him for a steal, too. His contract averages about $14 mil per year. For the numbers he puts up, that's a great deal. 14 game hitting streak that and it's not a cheap hitting streak either.
May 16, 200817 yr I'm glad he wasn't this hot during the 2005 World Series. We might've needed five games to beat the Astros instead of four.
May 16, 200817 yr Author May Stats: 50 AB .580 AVG 1.140 SLG .644 OBP 7 HR 7 2B 18 RBI 19 RUNS 9 BB Season Stats: 151 AB .391 AVG .808 SLG .472 OBP 15 HR 16 2B 1 3B 32 XBH 43 RBI 45 RUNS 25 BB He reached base three times in five plate appearances on Thursday, and his May OBP actually went down from .648 (35/54) to .644 (38/59).
