Me and Blake went to the same high school.
Years apart, of course.

the grand slam he hit vs the Gumps in the Saturday game in Hoover in '08 was unbelievable. The LSU fans just exploded.

Top 20 probably. His stats are skewed by playing 4 years. Nothing special in the field is what killed his career. But a great hitter.

Wasn't he a DH for most of his career?
Posted on 4/24/14 at 8:20 pm to sicboy
Yep. That's actually why he came back for year 4. He wanted to prove to scouts he was a serviceable 1st baseman.

Not very high. Certainly not in the top 20. He was very lazy. And he couldn't play a position.
Posted on 4/24/14 at 8:24 pm to Penrod
Do you think he was lazy because he looked bored?
Posted on 4/24/14 at 8:25 pm to sicboy
In 2008 he started 67 games and was 70-71 in put outs with only 1 Error..

Oh I don't know. I thought he just made the switch to first his last year.

Good player but the bats really helped him out in that era. I'm not so sure he would be nearly as highly thought of in the post 2010 era.
Posted on 4/24/14 at 8:28 pm to sicboy
71 isn't a high number for a 1st baseman. Most of those starts were at DH

And who from the past 3 years goes in the top ten anyway?
Posted on 4/24/14 at 8:32 pm to sicboy
No. I think he was lazy because his teammates told me he was lazy.

Raph
Hitting .431 while flirting with .500 mid-way through the season and beyond that even easily puts him Top 10. The guy just knew how to spray hits.
