Maybe this isn't news to other people here, but I hadn't realized it until he hit a homer just now. I know he's a career minor leaguer, but he's been a dominant career minor leaguer, and I've got a feeling he can help this team. He's got to be better than the Deluccis and Wilkersons of the world.

Id say he did a good job tonight.

he's got something to prove, he hit well tonight, and the team really has nothing to lose by letting him get some ABs. i agree wholeheartedly about the deluccis and wilkersons. good luck randy.

Ruiz just hit another bomb off Burnett. This guy has a serious home run swing and was putting up dominant numbers in AAA. Baseball is a funny in the way it takes some longer to figure it out then others, maybe he can be a late bloomer. Either way, its nice to see a guy who worked so hard for so long get a chance.

Well he's done well so far, two home runs in two games.

Heh, that was a nice one, too. It's good to have some extra pop in the lineup. Too bad Ricky won't get the win if we end up on top, but it's nice to see our offense battling.
