    Biggest disappointments/surprises
    Players. Who are your picks? Not who's having the worst or best years, but looking for disappointments (players that you thought would've been better) and surprises (players you didn't expect as much out of)

    Disappointments:

    B. Wilkerson 10/54 (.185 avg) 1hr, 4rbi, and 23 k's.
    R. White 4/47 (.085 avg) 0hr, 2rbi, and 16 k's
    Isringhausen 0-2, 15.00 era, 3.67 whip

    Surprises:

    F. Liriano 8.1IP, 5hits, 1 walk, 13k's, 0.00 era, .072 WHIP
    C. Shelton .479avg, 8hrs, 16rbis and 3 triples

    Wilkerson was put in a great situation in Arlington in that lineup and just hasn't produced at all. White has stranded a ton of runners batting cleanup for the Twins and Isringhausen has always been wild, but just horrific this year with a pretty good fielding defense behind him.

    Liriano isn't getting consistent innings, only getting spot work out of the pen, but has looked untouchable. Shelton, what can we say? LOL.

    Ramon Hernandez of the Orioles has been on fire since day 1. He's deffinitly a surprise. as is Papelbon of the Red Sox(although he's had the potential to do what he's doing)

    disappointment..hmm..Manny Ramirez and Ichiro although you know they'll pick up the pace.

          R. White 4/47 (.085 avg) 0hr, 2rbi, and 16 k's has been terrible. Santana is also another disappointment thusfar.

            Yankees pitching other than Randy Johnson. Very impressed with
            Old dudes like Maddux,Schilling,and Smoltz.

            How about J. Beckett from the Red Soxs what a pitcher he is!!!!
            He is GOOD!!
