    Matt Holliday is stiffs' defined

    This guy is a thorn in the Cards side. Yes or no?

    not sure i would go that far but no damn way they should have paid him as much as we did, especially after the choke job he pulled in the playoffs last year

    Absolutely not excited about that at all. That could have been a huge momentum swing for the offense if they put up some more runs...at least some more good at bats. I Hope they at least win this game, but I don't feel like they got their shit together yet. Thankfully the pitching has kept Nats quiet.

    Those are his career numbers averaged out to a per season line. Of COURSE you pay him 16 million.

    ..um, did you see him when he reported to spring training? He's still taking phd's for sure...pro-hormones at the VERY least. And don't forget he's only 30, most hitters peak at about that age.

    Its only a matter of time before Holliday makes posters like this look bad. Almost every player that signs a 6+ year contract has very slow starts. They try to hard to prove to the team, organization, and fans that they are worth it. And then there becomes blogs and posts like this that people think they wasted money.

    Give it time Spippen! Holliday will be the same MVP type player here before long

    I will, thanks, and looking forward to Holliday dominating so we can all win some money on St Louis and not worry with close games, bring on the blowouts!

    Since this thread his average has dropped about 20 points, Matt Holiday is clearly stiffs' defined. Anybody disagree?

    How about Stats not in Coors field

    1688 AB - 286/354/458 56 HR in 429 starts --- (which is about 20/162 game)

    Do you pay that guy 16Million?
