Lance f'n Berkman

[trueut2003]

.361 AVG, .441 OBP, .754 SLG, 11 HR, 33 RBI's
Batting .667 in May.

And as a coincidence, that was my 1000th post. Go Berkman. And OU sucks.

Big Puma, Fat Elvis........MVP?

 

[coopntex]

So much for Lance being on the decline.

 

[texashorne]

The Big Puma is playing better than he ever has right now. I attribute this to having Tejada in front of him and Lee and Pence behind him. What a lineup....

 

[AstroVol]

Also 11th in the NL in stolen bases.

the pride of travis country right off southwest parkway

He would get more national attention for this streak if he had kept the chops.

 

[The Legend#4]

He is in a straight zone. Even getting hits from the right side. I think he can keep a high average and the RBI's up, but I don't think he will hit 45-50 hrs to give him the triple crown.

talk about jumping the gun

 

[ColtMcApplewhite]

So far, 2-2 with a double off the wall in the gap, a 2 run homer and a walk tonight. It is way too early to be talking about TC's and MVPs, but the Big Puma is definitely on the prowl for MLB player of the month. Hopefully by the end of the year he will join Bagwell with the MVP honors.

Considering the firepower in the rest of the lineup, if Berkman is in contention for or wins MVP and Bourne is in contention for or leads the league in steals, I think this team will be able to overcome its pitching woes and make the playoffs.

As an aside, Moehler looks to be securing a longer look at gaining a role as an SP tonight.

.393, 13 HR's, 38 RBI's, .800 slg

 

[UnBiased Horn]

hitting .686 since may 2nd. I am laughing after every hit now. that shot of Zito from the right side was a thing of beauty.

 

[Uncle Rico]

well his streak is about to be over since he's rolling into arlington this weekend.

 

[AstroVol]

..."rolling" being the operative word.

 

[ADMIRALSTOCKDALE]

best stretch i've ever seen. "seen" being the operative word

 

[UofTOrange]

It's the best I have ever "seen" as well, he is on fire. It's dissapointing when he ONLY goes 1-3
