Paging Mr. Juan Gonzalez....

[RynMan]

Any1 know why he hasnt been in the KC lineup the past few games?

Juan Gonzalez plays baseball? I thought he was a bench coach or something.

Injury. Leg I believe. He's day to day.

[Dr.DooM]

I finally dropped him. I thought he might have had a chance to really shine this year with a better Kansas team but now they seem out of contention and will probably get worse once Beltran is traded. His nagging injuries make him too erratic to tolerate.

This in Gonzalezbizzaro World is known as the beginning of vacation.

I've been something of a student of his career ever since he landed with a thud in Detroit a few years ago. When he starts slumping or getting booed (as is the case in KC now) he inevitably succumbs to a series of small ailments which keep him out for a week or so. This all leads up to a major leg or back injury that no doctor can diagnose (see Texas 2003). Then he'll ask to go home to rehab.

I hate to be a cynic, but this pattern repeats itself every year.

Yeah he has what some like toc all puss-itis.....injury my arse he sits cuz ge doesnt wanna play...I just traded him for Kotchman and Marlon freakin Byrd and even that was pushin it in my 18 team league....

This guys personality would fit well with only one team.....the OAKLAND RAIDERS

[RynMan]

sounds like you guys dont like him much. Its starting to bug me how he is always on the bench, im seriously thining of dropping the guy.

[Bucky]

Unfortunately, Juan is not one of those competitive types who will do anything to get into a game. He missed a game with Texas because his pants didn't fit right. Good luck.

2003: 82 GP
2002: 70 GP
2001: 140 GP (jeez, he must have been exhausted after that much work)
2000: 115 GP

Cal Ripken, he ain't. And that's why there was zero chance he was going to end up on any of my teams this year.

He's the Dick Allen of this generation -- the player with the most talent that does the least to help his team. In fact may he may even be a net loss.

Although he has two MVP trophies -- give him credit there -- it's surprisigng that he has only been an All-Star three times. That says something, I think. But I don't know what.
