Morgan Ensberg Now What?

I'm happy that Huff will play 1st and OF with Houston, keeping his 1B/3B/OF eligibility for next year

After Ensberg had 9 consecutive or something like that i watched Fantasy 350 on espn, and listened to Eric Karabell talk with high hopes. He said, Ensberg was gonna be this years Derek Lee.

He predicted 330/40/120

More than half way through the season Ensberg has done his fair share to slaughter my teams batting average at a clip of 236. Ensberg is on pace to go 236/36/84.

For those of you who can not dump him because he is so streaky, and you have been waiting for him to burst out, and also have no one to trade him to post here and discuss how much ensberg has sucked so far.

I traded him and Josh Johnson for Glaus a few days ago. Very happy.

There's already a topic on Ensberg already...

[Red Sox Frizeak]

its about him maybe losing some playing time. not the same thing.. at all, although it does add to ensberg failing us.

About a week ago, I traded Ensberg for Garrett Aktins!!

[J35J]

I had him predicted preseason like....

.280 avg
30 hr
90 rbi
85 r
5 sb

..... which was 10th on my rankings for 3B. Never have been a big fan and I'm really glad I'm not a fan now.

Now that Houston has traded for Huff, what will happen to Morgan Ensberg?

I don't see how it can really hurt him at this point. He was hitting very poorly -- he can only get better. Huff's addition makes the Astro's lineup deeper. By the end of the season I expect them to be one of the hotter hitting clubs in baseball. Ensberg has ZERO trade value right now, the wise move is to bench him and wait for the inevitable return to form.

[Amazing Oopah]

I'm thinking of buying low. This is the best chance to do so IMO

listened to Eric Karabell

There's where you went horribly wrong.
