I know Hawk always said that about Freddy Sanchez. We played them like 4-5 years ago and he always raved about his "magic wand". He wasn't really wrong though, that dude had about 6 bloop hits in that series.
June 15, 201114 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 04:27 PM) Lew Ford YES! Although, I'm pretty sure Lew Ford hit about .700 against us.
June 15, 201114 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 04:27 PM) Lew Ford f*** Lew Ford, but yes, hawk loved him.

June 15, 201114 yr I'd just like to add that Hawk needs to take a break from this topic: "To all you youngsters out there...you don't have to be a good breaking ball hitter; just cover the fastball" It's fabulous advice but he's saying it waaaay too often this year. Let's not totally dead-horse that one Hawk. Hawk loves the kid on the Dodgers that went 4-4 against us that one game. I'm sure it would become a new man-crush if we played them more.
June 15, 201114 yr Lew Ford was a raper. Weird that he didn't pan out. Hawk also loves Maicer 'Babe' Izturis.

June 15, 201114 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 06:12 PM) Andy Gonzalez. I used to want to punch my screen every time Hawk talked about how talented a ballplayer Andy Gonzalez was. I just didn't see it... in fact if I named the 5 worst players I've ever seen he'd be on that list
June 15, 201114 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 02:49 PM) So who are the players that Hawk seems to have a love for even though they're not exactly all star players? I can think of the following: - Carlos Gomez (Team Captain) - Kurt Suzuki - Randy Ruiz - Brandon Inge - Matt Harrison

Most of those guys aren't mediocre, though. They're actually very good. Sam McDowell, for instance.
