I just posted this in the main forum and thought it might be better down here:

He has been on fire of late...it is good to see him playing well even though I am a Yankee hater. For some reason, I like him more now than I did before and he is my favorite 'roid player since he is the only one I know that apologized and basically admitted being a user.

He homered again already today.

He is 14 for his last 35 (.400) and his average is up 35 points since June 20th (up to .272).

4 HRs in his last 8 ABs. Impressive!

What do you think Chop? Obviously, I don't think he'll ever be the MVP type player he was. But, he could put up 30-35 HRs in that lineup and hit .280 (not this season...but next).

Something was wrong with this guys stroke on top of the steroids. Even the last year before he fell apart his K's were way up (140...the most in his career) and his average was at an all time low (.250).

I think a healthy season from Giambi


.280 32 95 type season. Im sure the Yankees would be more than happy with that at this point.
