i mentioned him on here last week....but he doesnt even have a position.
also he needs to keep it up for an expanded amount of time for me to jump on his bandwagon

btw i played with him before  B)


wat

I heard he had made mad strides at 2B, and that's the reason he earned that promotion(since he wasn't hitting well in A ball).

If Gardner can play for the Yankees, Angle can play for the Orioles.
If anything, we should follow their model... speedy defenders in the outfield with great arms, defense, and speed on the bases.
Angle would be better than Gardner in my opinion... just because Angle strikes out a whole lot less.

wat do you realize how good Gardner is? His on base skills are incredible.

I meant Angle's potential is better than Gardner's. I admit Gardner is great, but Angle is a very similar player. Same speed, Angle has a better arm, and Gardner strikes out more.
I'm not disputing Gardner's OBP at all... I just think Angle is strikingly similar.

Gardner strikes out more because of his patience at the plate. I'm willing to bet more than 30% of those strikeouts are backward K's. Gardner has always been in the top 10ish in contact % when he actually swings the bat and rarely ever whiffs.

Also Gardner is hitting .304/.372/.414 since May while being one of the absolute best defenders(although him playing LF minimizes the production there. He should be playing CF fulltime.) and base-stealers in the game. If you think Angle is going to be better than that, then the guy must be hella good
