Molto Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Not that he's young and has a good chance to make any sort of impact at the major league level, but he needs to look in the mirror one day, maybe hop on a scale too, and realize that what's keeping him from staying in the big leagues isn't his inability to hit the ball out of the park, but his regular attempts to hit the ball out of the park. He may be one of the dumbest hitters I've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justBLAZE Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Let's hope he turns it around and becomes an asset to this team sometime in the future. IF fathom is right we just got ride of the Lillicurse all things will come back to normal now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still only a DL stint away from returning. Hopefully he'll have enough eligibilty to garner ROY votes by the end of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Lillebridge ready? Hell no. Is he a bust? We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockRaines Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Braves fans were correct, the kid is garbage. His swing and approach need to be made over 100% for him to succeed in baseball. Methinks it never happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPN366 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I'll say it again...the Pirates AND the Braves gave up on him. I guess this means that Brian Anderson is coming up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How stubborn do you have to be to have people tell you that the only way you're ever going to be a big leaguer long-term and make anything more than a pittance in earnings is to make changes and for you to not do them?

These guys have been the best player around them for their entire life, they've been told by people around them how good they were. I dont blame them for being stubborn really. Of course the first time he failed at the big league level should have been a wakeup, apparently it wasnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, some players are developed to perform where they're at rather than the next level. It's why a guy like Anderson comes up and has a long, hole-filled swing. It worked in the minors with lesser quality pitchers who will miss out over the plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
