Yep, that combo absolutely killed us last year . . .

We scored runs last year <i>in spite of</i>, not <i>because of</i> those two. There's a difference.
In the 2nd half of the season, after Fuk had a go-around of the NL, here's how he hit:
.217/.314/.326
OPS-639
Doesn't bode well. I'd rather have Hoffpower (sic) out there.
(FWIW, Reed J. kicked ass in the 2nd half last year).

There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance
