Forgive me if you see anything you don't like, I don't do many MLB TD's


Lincecum is 9???1, leading the NL with 114 strikeouts and is second in the NL in ERA at 2.38. He is also younger by 1 year that volquez.

ill give you cabrera he just completely slipped my mind

And tho upton has not received the hype of sizemore(due to the fact that he could not find a position to stick to) he has a better avg(.280-261) and more sb(23-19) and has scored more runs, and only 4 less RBI which is saying something due the fact that Upton has 13 less HRS than sizemore. Upton is also 2 years younger.


Do you mean Liscum is 9 years old or what, you didn't really specify.

And for the Volquez- Lincecum debate I'm gonna call on the all-mighty stats sheet

ERA: Volq 2.24, Lince 2.38
Record: Volq 10 -3 , Lince 9 -1
K's: Volq 115, Lince 114
Hits allowed: Volq 79 , Lince 93
HR allowed: Volq 4 , Lince 5

So according to the allmighty stat sheet, Volq is the better player...

Now let us compare Upton and Seizmore,
Hits: Grady 84, Up 83
HR: Grady 19, Up 6
RBI: Grady 45, Up 41
Stikeouts: Grady, 64, Up 72
SLG%: Grady .512, Up .416
Runs: Grady 51, Up 52
Also Grady is a better defensive CF than Up,

Grady is the better player stats wise and most people will tell you that he has much more potential than Up.


H/AB
Upton-83/299
sizemore-84/326 thats almost 30 at bats and only 1 more hit not eactly doin the leadoff job


Analysts have been sayin that the uptons are the top bright young talents in MLB and the only thing that matters in the MLB is the W/L records and it isnt even close the rays are much better.

And Lincecum is much more composed, and accurate pitcher getting 2.65K/BB, to Volquezs' 2.22

Hes 9-1 th a team thats ofensive umbers are not exactly the same a cincys.


That's also 8 more strikeouts on 27 less at bats, so this goes two ways...

"Analysts have been sayin that the uptons are the top bright young talents in MLB and the only thing that matters in the MLB is the W/L records and it isnt even close the rays are much better. "

If you go by those standards, than you could also say that A-Rod is worse than 80 players in his division alone, so that's a load of crap...

And if Lince is a better pitcher tyhan how come Lince has allowed almost 20 more hits than Valq and pitched 3 less games, and allowed more Homeruns on 3 less games, so he obviously isn't quiteas good as you hype him up to be.

"Hes 9-1 th a team thats ofensive umbers are not exactly the same a cincys"

On the games that Vlaq has lost he has allowed an aveage of 2.16 runs which tells anyone who knows anything about baseball that he's doing his job , it's ciny's offense that isn't getting it done.

Great TD mc44019, your very good for a new guy,
Happy Voting

Felix or Licecum over Volquez, Volques has too many walks, when he looses velocity, that lack of control will hurt hm. Felix and Licecum have better control.

Sizemore is a better defensive CF than B.J., adn he bats leadoff, so he should have fewer RBI's than BJ, as so many of his homers will lead off a game, which makes them solo. BJ does not lead off.
