Who's Looking Forward to A Lot of Cody Ransom?

Other than Cody Ransom? Ummm, everyone obviously. With the news of Alex Rodriguez being sidelined for potentially 10 weeks he looks like the clear cut favorite to be his replacement. The only other option currently on the roster is Angel Berroa and he'll need to decide to become a good player again, if he wants playing time.

So what kind of excitement will we get from the great Cody Ransom? Dude hit 4 home runs in just 43 at bats last season. That's a home run every 10.75 at bats. In comparison A-rod hit a measely 35 home runs in 510 at bats or one homer per 14.57 at bats. Arod hit .302 with a .396 OBP and a .573 Slugging %. Random hit .302 with a .400 OBP and a .651 Slugging %. Clearly at this stage of their career Cody Ransom is just a flat out better player than A-Rod.

Just try to ignore the fact that he's 33 years old and only has 183 career at bats. He's obviously just a late bloomer.

FOOOOOOUUUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKKKK

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
