Some Critical Correspondence...

I did receive some tweets today.  Also some emails and e-messages.

Most were objecting to my favorable predictions for our seven year, contracted-in-cement, feet-in-cement, $250 million DH.

Here is my response;

1. He raked. The launch angle and the exit velocity on that critical HR were off the charts.

2.  Did the announcers " gush," or did they "GUSH?"

3.  Some will say...."well, the Yankees had a nearly 10 run lead at the time, no one was on base, the game was already over, and the pitcher for the Indians was their back-up first baseman."

So what, I say?  

When the stat sheets are printed today, the column on Stanton will include both a home run and an RBI.

It will not read 0-4 with 2K's.  It will not.

No one will even remember him looking at that third strike down the middle. 

Want more?  

"Stanton will win the game tonight, for us, single handedly."  Every time Tanaka gives up a "dinger, "Stanton will "re-ding" Cleveland's bell.

 He has become, "THE MAN" for us.  The Stanton MAN.

It is Giancarlo time in the Rock and Roll "Hall-of-Fame" City.

Listen for the music.
