Forearm and Grip Strength for Homerun Hitting Power
Suggestions made on the Baseball Forum. Do you Agree?
This is what I read here on the forum…would you agree?
Adam Dunn…convert him to a first baseman
Ivan Rodriguez….make him a DH
Mike Piazza…….bring him back, he can still hit..lol..
Pedro Martinez…sign him…he’s got 2-3 good years left
Phil Hughes……he’s our 5th starter….Yankees.
My opinion is not included above….what do you think?
I’m not downgrading Hughes yet, his minor league career has been very good. I guess it depends if Joba and Pettitte can hold their place in the rotation…Hughes might get the chance sooner. But it looks like half a season at AAA would be a better indicator.
1) He is not a good fielder, period. He is a DH, who strikes out too much.
2) I. Rodriquez has little power, and he would make a terrible DH.
3) Piazza is gone. Great hitter, let him live in peace.
4) Martinez has little left. I saw him pitch, or really sit for most of the 4 years with the Mets. I am not a doctor, but I do not believe he took rehab seriously, and the Mets let him do whatever he wanted and provided no oversight He pitched at the tail end of the season and was terrible. He had no fastball and pitched on guile and was crafty.
5) Hughes was terrible last year. He has “good stuff” and throws hard, and has great potential. After last season the Yankees do not trust him as their 5th starter, and have 5 pitchers ahead of him.
Have a nice day!
