Ian Kinsler

Wanted to give some Love to Kinsler.

You know he had at the All-Star break a 25-game hitting streak.  He was also hitting .419 with runners in scoring position. And Kinsler was a 2008 AL All-Star.

Amd thru July 28, Kinsler was leading the AL with a .331 AVG,and had 90 runs with 145 hits.with a .392 OBP, and a OPS at .922

Ian was mentioned by several news media as a MVP candidate before his season-ending surgery.

Kinsler needs some Love.

What Joey is saying is...

…this is not post worthy. It has no content or substance. Keep trying you will figure it out.

Yeah

No offense or anything seasmurf, but it’s kind of a given that we all love Ian Kinsler around here – but we really didn’t need a “lets count the ways” diary on him. He’s a vital cog in the offense and we need him back 100% healthy next year, but that’s not exactly a big newsflash at this point.

I think it's a big news Love flash

He needs some love.

My goodness we have all this minor league talk and pitchers rotation, etc.

I just thought a Kinsler post would be good. I can’t remember the last time when Kinsler was mentioned in a fanpost.

so why don't you show

me when Ian Kinsler was the topic of a fanpost?

the point is

Kinsler Love

Where is it? Out of all the responses nobody game any love to Kinsler.

You aren’t off to a real good start here.

That's mainly because we all hate Ian Kinsler.

The whole “offense” thing aside, he’s a bit shit.

Actually

I was thinking this is getting hurlerhurley-esque. Although, in fairness that is synonymous with scary.

Not me

I hate him even though I think I don’t, remember, Jon? ;)

He’s got plenty of arm and range to his right
but the way that he stroked it was quite out of sight

If you don’t want to feel like a side of lamb in the lion’s den then I’d suggest having something to say, preferably something new and interesting with research that you did or quotes that you compiled. Talk about how Kins started hitting breaking pitches this year or how he discovered that salami sandwiches will systematically raise your VORP. Ya know ideas, substance.

Obviously a necessary post

because Kinsler gets so much hate in here.

Especially from that hater, Dirkatron.

Rhetorical question

If you choke a sea smurf, what color does he turn?

hmmmm good question..

aren’t sea smurf’s normally green? So if you were to choke one.. I’d imagine they would turn blue.

Next Time

We all know that Kinsler had an awesome year at the plate. Next time maybe compare him to other players or something so people will have something to talk about.
