Giant Jim Edmonds looks down on Ryan Braun. Found it on In a League of Her Own. Cracked me up.

.239 was his combined BA for 2008 (SD and Chicago)

He’s batting a respectable .275+ with the Cubs. He batted .178 with the Padres.

He’s raised his combined BA up to .241 since that snapshot.

I know

I was just kidding. And I didn’t even type the number right, so I’m batting about .053.

For some reason,

this reminds me of “Time Bandits.”

Looks like Braun is scared of him.

(In deep, God-like voice) "Ryan, listen to me...

...you can certainly hit the long ball, but you look like a frightened deer out here in the outfield. Talk your portly friend Prince into taking a trade to the AL and move to first base. Mooooove to first baaaaaaaaaaaaasssse…”

(Edmonds face dissolves into nothingness.)

Pay no attention to the man in the dugout!

The wig, the glasses, the catchphrase...brilliant.

"I am a gold glove outfielder, I know other gold glove outfielders..."

You, Mr. Braun, are NO gold glove outfielder!”

Let my ashes blow in a beautiful snow from the prevailing 30 mile an hour southwest wind...
When my last remains go flying over the left field wall, I'll bid the bleacher bums adieu,
And I will come to my final resting place, out on Waveland Avenue. --Steve Goodman

Does Soriano's defense at 2B really cost more runs than in LF?  He makes a lot fewer errors in LF since misplays and mental mistakes aren't figured into the stats, but I have to imagine that his mistakes are more physical at 2B.  Any thoughts?  Is there a statistic on this?
