Clean up hitter?

The Wolves Owned All 4,700 Basketball Squares

Minnesota's defensive effort in Game 2 was a transformative sight. In what appeared to be an effort to become one with their team name, they swarmed, smashed, hounded, snarled, took, and destroyed for 24 straight minutes to start the game. Not an inch of the court was safe.

Joel Embiid Is Already Legend

by John Wilmes

Joel Embiid carries the weight of expectations differently than others. As his fanbase and national media have constructed stories that have him as the potential messiah in a decade-long process of experimental team-building, coupled with the unusual rabidity of Philadelphia sports fans, he has accepted this role sincerely.

Who should be the Clean up hitter this season? I would like to see Conor Jackson in the 4 spot. I don't like Chad Tracy there because he needs to try and hit for average rather than power his Batting Average was down last year and I think it is because he tried to swing for the fences too much.

The guy I want to see in there is Carlos Quentin. I think Tracy would be a good 3 hole hitter good averge lots of doubles with some power. Quentin really has a good strong bat. The problem is he isn't healthy right now. I don't think we have a guy who is a true clean-up hitter (a guy with lots of power) what we do have is 6 or 7 guys who could hit 20 to 30 homers. Which is a good it puts lots of pressure on opposing pitchers in that they don't have an "easy" inning.
