I never understood the Abreu hate. Then again, I'm just a nerd who doesn't WATCH THE GAMES.

He's also lazy and I hate that he was an above average short stop for years.

Abreu didn't try and leg out triples so that he could pad his doubles stats

you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

Who the hell is pig man? Is it Howard because of his nose? Is it Ray Liotta?

I keep seeing pig man references and I feel like I don't know you guys anymore.

Harang I think.

No sweat. We all get pinged once in a while. One thing that's difficult for almost everyone is the concept of a big league player changing his game dramatically. Rollins strengths were many. One was his power was pretty valuable. He was never gonna be a slap hitter. He would suck at it. He maximized his strengths. He stole bases very well. He was part of the Phillies record setting success rate. He hit lots of extra base knocks and homers. That helped the Phils win. He was a really good defender too. That's a damn good combination.

You see a little guy and think he should be a slap hitter, keep it on the ground, use the speed. That wasn't Rollins' game though. His game was very valuable.
