Kinsler so far


Kinsler has more power, but Cano is a better contact hitter

Going into the year I would have said Cano, but Kinsler has really impressed me.....so Kinsler.

Nah, I think Cano is unique. Just look at the dude hit. He was made for it. I didn't buy it at first, but the more I see him hit, the more I think he can can actually hit .320 on a regular basis. Of course, the **** has to be hitting .270 with no power right now, doesn't he. **** Yankees. They can't even do well when I praise them.

I would love to see Cano hit in Fenway on a regular basis. His inside-out swing and the Green Monster? Poetry.

For the record, I love being a contrarian and I don't even think I believe what I wrote in this thread.

I remember we had a similar discussion at some point last season where you basically said Cano has no shot of hitting .300 on a yearly basis. Nice to see you've come around. :lol:

not sure if you're being sarcastic but it seems as if bleeding green doesnt agree with his assesment that cano is better.

This thread is purely comedic right now.

Ah, Ian Kinsler. Proof that anyone can look like an MVP candidate given a small enough sample size.
