The Monarch Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 (edited) The J-Don'tSayHey Kid has somehow exceeded the lofty expectations that accompanied him to the big leagues. The scary part is I don't think we've seen a truly HOT streak from him yet. Thus far in his career he's already:* Homered in his first AB (only 1 chance to do that)* Had a walk-off hit (2, actually)* Game tying 9th inning HR* Stolen 3rd baseThere are however many things that we know he will do at some point that he hasn't yet. Let's list them and mark them off as we go. Add any that we expect him to do this year (or any he's already done that I left off) and I'll add them to the list as we go. These should be reasonable expectations. For instance, I don't think he'll pitch a perfect game in the World Series, so no need to put it in here (though I only doubt his opportunity, not ability).I'll start.* Multi-HR game. He came close awhile back and was robbed of his 2nd. This one should fall soon.* Throw out a batter at first from right field.* Hit for the cycle (kind of flukey, so who knows if he'll ever get this one).* Grand Slam Edited June 2, 2010 by The Monarch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can attest that in two months, I've virtually blown Heyward many more times than Andruw over the course of his whole career. Hey, wait a second... you're trying to troll aren't you!

dmite Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I have a feeling that he needs pressure to perform well. If we have a huge lead, he won't do as well, but if it's a close game and the heat is on, he'll do great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTA Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 You left off make this guy upset.Haha, he doesn't make me upset, normally... Now, when he hits a walk-off double with two outs in the bottom of the ninth to beat my Reds that makes me upset... Only thing I've got against the guy is that he plays for the Braves...
