Twitter blowing up with Kawaski stuff this morning

 

What went on? I missed the game

Man if only this guy could hit he would be more popular than Ichiro

 

I don't see Kawa trending, only the Sanchize

he's batting .279 with a .333 obp. That's more than enough for a number 9 hitter once the lineup gets healthy.

That's true but it wasn't really his point. He's indeed hitting enough for a number 9 hitter. He was just saying that if he were a well above average hitter, he could be a superstar.

Look at his .babip, it's way up there above his norm. He has gotten plenty of lucky hits that I've seen and a lot of dribblers that found a hole. The one that he got yesterday was a dribbler that smacked the computer theft guy.

 

He's going to regress hard, but I suppose we can take that until we trade for someone or Goins settles in and actually contributes offensively.

Even if he can hit .250-.260 with an OBP .320-.330 ish (which I think he can) I want him on the team as our primary backup for 2B/SS even if AA gets us a new infielder. His defense is good, he's a gamer, plays all-out and everyone likes having him around.

 

Give him Izturis' contract please so we can keep him around

Has there been an update on Izturis? I remember the initial talk was best case scenario August worst case out for season.

He was funny at first, but now it's getting a bit old with his silly interviews.

0.3 fWAR in 30 games on a cheap minor league contract. I'll take it.
