Maybe that's why he succeeded.
Less pressure, only having to perform for one team instead of two. I think you should leave him on the bench the rest of the season.
Also, I hope your fantasy team loses every game, or whatever it is that fantasy teams play.

His line is still way better than Ankiel's
and that was in one of the worst hitter’s parks in the league. And he’s actually been heating up quite a bit lately, and Busch is a much friendlier stadium for hitters. This does not bode well, but I still think we’re winning this division.

Fair 'nuff.
In conjunction with the Duncan-Lugo deal this really means they maintain depth and add some upside in their outfield. So they hopefully add some outfield hitting plus whatever they think they’ll get out of Lugo, and give up whoever that hitting prospect was that they traded for Holliday.
the Saint Louis Papers
are saying Ankiel
