A way to fix Edmonds

May 29th, 2008 at 01:45pm Wally Haas

Jim Edmonds continues to struggle with the bat and sat out last night’s game against the Dodgers even though there was a right-hander pitching.

If I were Jim Hendry and Lou Piniella, here’s what I’d do.

Give Edmonds a couple more starts and if he continues to struggle, put him on the DL with one of those mysterious back injuries. Then, have him go to the minors on a “rehab” assignment so he can work on  his stroke.  Then, activate him and if he still doesn’t hit, release him.

That way you’ve given him every possible chance.

    Edmonds is hitting .538 (7-for-13) with two HRs lifetime against Rockies starter Aaron Cook, so, in theory, he should have a good game today.

    If not, Edmonds can be fixed by fitting him for a sports coat with a Comcast Sports Net patch on it and sit him back in the pre- and postgame studio.
