Re: biggest let downs of the 2009 MLB season so far
how is teix on this list?
always a slow starter and since a rod is back he is destroying the ball. teix will hit over 40 hr this year.
lester more of a disappointment than beckett. beckett wasn't good last year, this is the real beckett now. a decent #3 pitcher with the potential for a great start every now and then. that's all he is. lester is their ace and doing just as poorly so imo he is more of a let down.
ortiz is obviously a huge letdown, but people saw a preview of this last year. he's just wearing down and isn't the scary big papi he used to be.
manny ramirez has to be at the top of this list. not a letdown talent wise, but he sure as hell let down the dodgers by getting suspended for 50 games.
