Oye come on man. The guy is hitting .330 with a .450 OBP. His power will come. Be happy that he's getting on base at an unbelievable clip and scoring runs in bunches because of the guys behind him.

 

I'm not upset, but it would be nice to see a couple homers.. I mean everyone else is hitting them

The point is...don't expect him to be clubbing HR's until that thumb is not throbbing. Pedey is not a pure power hitter anyway. When he hits for real power he does it with bat speed.

But Pedroia isn't everyone else. Ellsbury in his last full season, hit a lot of HRs. No one is saying anything about that now. Forsyth is right, be happy he's still producing and getting on base. WMB has 6 HRs, are you happy with the production you're getting so far?

Ells big HR year was an anomaly. Although if healthy he will hit for more power than Vic will cause Vic is not even trying to hit for power. Pedey if healthy will hit for more power than Ells will any day of the week. You folks don't seem to be getting it. Asking Pedey to hit HR's if that thumb is still throbbing is unfair to Pedey. We have always treated the guy like he is bulletproof and immune to pain. I have always argued that is ******** and unfair to him as a player.

Just to be clear, I was making fun of Don's comment about Napoli/Nava earlier, and Nava just happened to crush the next pitch:lol::lol:

I remember that game against the Yankees where we hit 4 straight HRs, that was awesome.

 

I remember I was listening to the Yankees radio coverage at work, because the Sox station wasn't coming in as clear. I don't remember precisely what Sterling said, but I do remember him sounding like someone had just run over his dog.

Can you believe that he's going to be making 18 and 19 million in 2013/2014? Crazy.
His numbers are there every year even though he barely k's 100 batters. If he puts up his usual numbers, he's worth it.
