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.
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.

Thank god was having flashbacks of houston game. esp. with wells being starter who was in line for Win. just like he was in houston game and when gregg came on in non save spot.

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.

Who sits for Holliday
Ankiel, Rasmus or Ludwick?
daily2b - July 24, 2009
Probably Ankiel, he becomes the 4th OF
gridiron_assassin - July 24, 2009
seems sorta lateral to me
daily2b - July 24, 2009
Ankiel's not hitting very well this year.
aldimond - July 24, 2009
nor Holliday
daily2b - July 24, 2009
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.
gridiron_assassin - July 24, 2009
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.
