		<description><![CDATA[If you guys need to throw out statistics to determine how good or bad Valdespin was in 2012 then you don&#039;t see very well. Oh, yeah he had some good moments as a pinch hitter initially but that lasted a very short time. Major league pitchers may read scouting reports but will always start rookie hitters off with fastballs as a matter of principle. If the hitters can&#039;t handle the heat why bother with breaking and off speed stuff......

Bottom line? Valdespin&#039;s weakness as a hitter is clearly evident, He can&#039;t hit the breaking stuff and he swings at 5too many pitches out of the zone. Bad base runner too!

Hope he is sent packing and being photographed wearing a Marlins cap may not be terribly insulting to the brass...but proves a point....HE IS NOT TOO SMART!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So Kevin Durant wearing a Bulls hat = being a prima-donna?

the new generation...looks at sports clothing as fashion statements, not signs of allegiance...

I remember when I used to wear a White Sox hat to work, to match my black/white NorthFace coat...

my much older boss and older co-workers all thought i was a white sox fan...and couldnt understand why i wore a mets shirt underneath my jacket..

the co-workers my age never questioned it...b/c they all understood...

these guys dont see themselves as any different than u when the game lights are turned off

If you found out David Wright wore some Yankee slippers given to him for free at a charity event...do you really think he is a Yankee fan?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ok, so is this why some of you are off your rocker?? Because is a latino ballplayer? You are amazing.. And yes, all you gotta do is look up in the internet how iverson and kobe and other players used to rock throwbacks from other team’s players. no big deal bro.. Relax man,I am sure if it was mike baxter you wouldn’t have your panties up in a bunch… Jeez!

Alex,

Just when I think you&#039;re somewhat sane you spew this nonsense!!!  I am a Latino Met Fan!  I&#039;m deeply offended!  Screw him!  He goes right to the front of the line when it comes to disliked Mets for me.  I don&#039;t really give a rat&#039;s fat culo what Iverson and Kobe did or do I don&#039;t like them either.  I know Kobe is an all time great but he is a selfish surly jerk and I can&#039;t stand the Lakers anyway.  Iverson may be one of the biggest jerks of all time.  I met him on a couple of occasions and he was an idiot.  Can&#039;t stand the Sixers or Nuggets either.  Besides they are player who actually did something in their careers, this kid is just a clown looking for attention I don&#039;t care what color his skin is.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Surrounding yourself with quality people is only going to take you so far.&quot;

Im not saying he is around the wrong people either...

Im just saying that handling the media perception is something not done in DR, because the media is completely different.

NYC - everyone and their mother wants to know why u didnt give DW a hi-5 when he came back from hitting a sac fly...that in NYC and ESPN world would turn into a month full of articles

Hell Lebron James wearing a YANKEE HAT was the source of controversy for months

Tom Brady wearing a YANKEE HAT and buying a place in NYC was the subject of controversy in Boston for months...

In other countries...people dont give a sh*t about things like that...

the reaction to Jordany just shows how tone-deaf he is to the absolute bat-sh*t craziness of American sports fans

You probably munched on some food that has GMO&#039;s. while breathing in air polluted from ChemTrails, to go along with the filtered water you drank because the local water supply is dirty as hell..

but you are worried about what a backup MI for the mets is wearing on his free time

and he is the messed up one?

get a clue yall]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yup cuz comparing Jordany Valdespin to Uribe has nothing to do with overtones..

same way every black CF is compared to Willie Mays, Ken Griffey Jr

When Lastings Milledge was being drafted...people compared him to Willie Mays...

Not so different than Christian Laettner being the next Larry Bird....

Not so different than Harold Miner being the next Michael Jordan...

Not so different than Jennry Mejia being the next Pedro...

we can go on and on with that...

when most people make comparisons...its almost always 2 people of the same race...

god forbid someone say that Niese could be the next Johan...it would really screw everyone&#039;s head up]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yes Vinny but all the hits that comprisethat .133 were game winning HRs....
Thats what made everyone like Valde not anything he did as a starter.

As a PH he hit .214 hit 5 Hrs and had 10 RBI]]></description>
