Bonds, A-Rod, NYY and Boston free zone? What has gone under the radar this season?

Question

Geeze, every question in this catergory is about the Yankees or Red Sox, Bonds and A-Rod and their milestones, etc. Did you know that the Oakland Athletics have 7 players on the DL? I didn't know that. Why? Because everyone is always talking about New York and Boston, Bonds and A-Rod.

So tell me, what/who esle has gone under the radar? Who? Ya'll heard about Curtis Granderson and what he's about to accomplish, right? I just found that out yesterday. Talk about going under the radar!

Guess what-one of the suggested catergories for this was "Entertainment and Music: Televison: Drama".
(I thought it was funny)

No disrespect intended by asking this question!

Granderson is looking to become the 3rd player to ever have 20 doubles, 20 triples, 20 homeruns, and 20 SB. He's joining Willie Mays and Frank Schulte in this elite club

Ms. Rodriguez-yes, I see your point, but there are other teams and other players

Yeah, I asked a question recently about the stellar season Bedard is having. Glad to see someone agrees with me!

Answer 1

I agree with what you're saying, but when ESPN only reports on A-Rod, Barry, NY and the Bo Sox, then that's all we have to talk about.

What exactly is Granderson about to accomplish? You've peaked my interest.

As for under the radar over in the SF Giants camp, Omar Vizquel passed the Wizard [and became the all time leader] in games played by a shortstop, and Mark Sweeney moved up to #2 on the all time pinch hit list

Answer 2

I believe Boston Believes answer, being below the radar is great for the Angels. they are going to fly perfect into the playoffs and earlier different team's followers have a great gamble to undesirable mouth them they could have gained a international sequence. The Yankees-crimson Sox followers contention gets previous and wiped out. THe Angels making it in is a breath of unpolluted air. THe Yanks and crimson Sox have distinctive issues perfect now in the clubhouse not to show their issues on the fields. COngrats on the Tex acquisition and kick lower back and watch your team coast into the postseason!

Answer 3

It gets talked out because these are the most interesting things happening right now. Be honest to your self when you turn to espn you don't want to know about how many of the A's players are on the DL you want to know if A-Rod hit 500,If Barry hit 756,or if the yankees caught up with the redsox.But if you want some news on the A's here is some news about them they were the best team in the beginning of the season and haven't been back since.

Answer 4

Eric Badard is the most underrated pitcher and is having a very under the radar season.

Ichiro Suzuki is batting over .360 but noone notices why?

Because of a man of A-Rod who has 35 homeruns and over 100 R.B.I.'s.

Yes, thier are other team out thier besides the Yankees and Mets and people should start learning that.

Answer 5

Ken Griffey Jr is about to move into 5th place on the All-time HR list.

He'll reach 600 later this year.

His name won't be mixed in with steroid use like the guy about to reach #1 or the guy he's about to pass for #5.

Answer 6

I saw Griffey's homerun today. I want to go to the game against the Dodgers because the tickets are half off. (at the Reds)

Answer 7

Craig Biggio needs three more plunks to set the career Hit By Pitch record. Go, Bidge! Take three for the team! And then he's retiring, he said so.

Answer 8

how about griffey being back in the hr talk, imagine if he was healthy all his years the record would be broke by himi, steroid free

Answer 9

Fausto Carmona went 1-11 last year and is 13-5 this year. 3.27 ERA.
