Justin Upton: the Hank Aaron of our Era
 
What's up with this guy? He just launched his 10th homer today, which puts him on pace for what? 60? 65?

It's refreshing to see a five tool player like Upton doing so well in that department.

Let's put on the breaks there, bud, this season still has a lot left in the tank.

The Hank Aaron reference had to be done because of the Braves connection. I agree it's an overstatement.

It will take the entire season for Moos and Hosmer to hit 10 home runs. They might have 10 home runs combined by the time July rolls around.

Frown all you want... Hosmer is turning into Ross Gload right before our eyes and Moose is popping everything up.

it's just passed mid april.

I approve of this fail comparison.

I'm just happy to see an African-American baseball player doing well. I know that there are several, but there aren't many superstars. The black baseball player is disappearing, and it's kind of sad.

LOL at Upton not being a good fit for the D-back's clubhouse.

Jerm 04-23-2013 02:51 PM

Yeah he doesn't "grind" enough...Braves absolutely fleeced them...he'll be a serious MVP candidate this year.

'Hamas' Jenkins 04-23-2013 02:55 PM

**** Upton. I had him for four straight years on my fantasy team, only to see him continually disappoint. Now, as soon as I let go of him he turns into Ken Griffy Jr.

Even before the Roid Era, it seemed someone would have 10-12 bombs in April every year...and end up with 23. It's early.

Chief Roundup 04-23-2013 03:15 PM

It is early for all that talk and we will just find out that he is using PED just like the rest of them are.
