Shelley Dominates Upon His Return
April 11, 2008, 2:42 amShelley Duncan was recently sent down to Triple-A so that Alberto Gonzalez could be called up. Duncan responded by going 4-for-5 with 1 HR and 3 2B in his return. Also, prospect Alan Horne appears to have a bicep injury. He left the game (after starting) in the 2nd inning. In addition, Jason Lane has been hitting everything for SWB. We’ve got a lot of veterans and younger guys that can definitely help the team throughout the course of the year (if there are injuries, etc.).
good for Shelly, at least he can get some at bats.
yea i agree. i feel bad for him. i think shelley could be a great player on another team. i know it sounds crazy but why let the guy rot in the minors? he’s ready for a full time role at 1B. of course giambi’s contract kind of blocks that option for us. but, maybe the yanks should do him a service and trade him to a team that needs a 1B. just a thought.
