Palka will be fine.

Elite hitters probably normally K once every 3 plate appearances as well.

Happy birthday to the stupidest thread on this board.

Not really as stupid as your vacillating thoughts about Joe Maddon.

Every poster should be allowed 1 Brett Jackson.

Palka was a great story last year.

There's no reason to play him right now, especially at the expense of Collins.

I don't know what's different about Palka this season, but I don't really think Collins is going to be a hitter that you can play at first.

Sent back down to the minors. His time is up.

He's a perfect example of the weak-minded thinking that you can pay anyone at first base.

ELITE!

Reading back thru this thread is delightful

Sometimes guys go bad and they can't get back to where they were, let alone improve. It happens.

Just watch my correct prediction.

Not as delightful as reading the predictions for Bryant or "Babe Fucking Ruth"

Let me just say that I do like you on a personal level. You're a totally cool guy (buys drinks, legit) and I think you're doing a pretty good job here on the board (much better than mr. California for sure).
That being said you pooped yourself pretty hard in this thread and now your elite hitter is a guy who just went bad. I mean cmon man, your baseball eye said this dude was elite, not just a potential good hitter but elite and when I think about elite I'm hearing top 5% of hitters. Maybe we have a different idea of elite but man isnt top 5% a fair cop to what elite is?
You put your baseball eye on trial here. The one you use to beat the crap out of Quintana mind you.
Anyhow I win and that's great. I feel bad for valerie or vanessa or whatever he wants to be called now but you owe me a coke.
