Sosa would have been the ideal platoon partner for Jones. I knew at the time it would never happen, but he can still mash lefthanders.

Poor sammy. I hope he isnt hurt. I'd hate the yankees even more, then.

I missed his first AB. His second one, he swung at a pitch on the outside and couldn't do much with it and rolled it to the SS.

Well at least he's back.

It's been almost a week since this thread has gotten bumped, so here you go

 

Sammy goes 3-for-4 with a run and an RBI in Texas' 14-2 win over New York today.

 

He's now hitting .277/.341/.527 (.868 ops) with 7 home runs and 24 RBI so far. Way to go Sammy.

He's doing way way better than I expected. That's for sure.

Yeah, he's totally exceeded my expectations. Too bad he's only trying to hit HRs.

Fixed, and I was on my way over to bump this for the same reason. Good to see his numbers still moving in the right direction.

Anyone else really wanting to see Sammy in the home run derby?

He's 7 for his last 12. Glad to see the beaning didn't cause him to start bailing out.

We can use those 7 HR's that's for sure!

Sammy homered again tonight. #596. He's the best.

Trade Floyd for Sammy.

Trade Floyd for Sammy.

:lol: realistically though, i don't think you could ever convince Sammy to come back.

I'm pretty sure it would be the Cubs who wouldn't want Sammy back, not Sammy not wanting to come back. From what I heard (just a rumor, I have no idea if it's true or not), Sammy said he called the Cubs first when he decided to come back and they said they werent interested. Take it for what it's worth.

Good to hear that Sammy is still hitting well.

didn't sammy say in the sunday night conversation that he wanted to play for the cubs this season? he was campaigning for a call from hendry.

Sammy is looking mighty good right now and is proving a lot of his distractors wrong.

wow, that's creepy

[Jon]

Sammy's line drive % still seems a bit low for him at 14%, but he's keeping the ball off the ground more.
