My time to vent.
I think Ryan Howard is a great power, homerun/ RBI hitter.
That's it! I'm tired of hearing on espn how he one of the games best.
Fuck that cause it's bullshit. He sucks dick against any lefty pitcher on a major league roster. He k's all the time.
Now fielding. He has no gold gloves because his defense is horrific!
When I think of a great first basemen, I think of Adrian or texeria.
They can hit any kind of pitching and they play great defense.
I watched Howard tonight try and scoop a bad throw from his SS and he totally ducked it! When u see Adrian or texeria or even fielder it's assumed they will make the play!
Listen I'm sure he's a great guy and gives alot to the community but why must people talk about how he's one of the games best right now.
In my opinion the hall of fame has not even crossed my mind that he would make it.
To me he's a big black man who hits a right handed pitchers fastballs over the fence very well. His MVP yr was sick!
Can't hit lefties
Sucks moose cock in clutch situations
Defense is beyond poor
I get just so pissed off when people or the television say he is one of the best.
Tonight 0-4 against homer Bailey who is right handed.
What do u guys think? One of the best?
Lemmie guess, someone will say he's an RBI machine?
Game 7 of the world series 2 on 2 out Phills down by 1 u want him batting in the 9th inning against a lefty? I sure wouldn't. But wait, isn't that what Great players do?

No not at all. Didn't even touch the game. This has been brewing with me for awhile but especially this year. Maybe because they are on national tv so much, but I have seen multiple multiple games this year and he literally stinks up the joint in a huge spot. He in no fucking way will make the. Hof.

I still say he's above average with the glove but I agree, he's not very clutch or consistent. Ibanez has been more fucking clutch than Howard. I've always liked Ryan but I hate the contract.

because he doesnt deserve the money. A guy your paying over 100 million for and your nervous when he gets up to the plate in a big spot? Ya ya ya, he can hit a right handed fastball over the bleachers and can knock in 112 rbi's wah wah wah. Take any left releiver out of any pen and see how he does. I'm not kidding he's that bad. Oh and his glove is weak as well.

He is, Howard is a better glove man than people give him credit for, but no where near the wizard Gonzo in Boston or Tex in New York is, not to mention the glove work that Kotchman does, which goes totally unnoticed, then there's Mr. Votto in Cincy, Prince in Milwaukee.

Howard is one of the top 8 or 9 power hitters in the game, but as far as all around first basemen goes, the list starts with Gonzo, Tex, Votto, Prince, before Howard even becomes a thought.

pretty good point there.

Now he's gonna face Bronson tonight. Watch him go 2-4 with 4 ribbies and a long homerun.

But why must you ask? Because theres a righty on the mound! Hey Ryan that must make you comfortable and happy! But if the game is close, and its in the late innings, and a lefty runs out of the pen, Ryan, will you be upset? Get a little worried? heheheheh

Howard gets the job done. The entire Philly team do not hit well against lefties and neither do the Atlanta Braves. Howard gets it done every year.
