Default Vent Need

Sorry I just feel the need to vent about one Justin Upton.
Ugh...he's a pain in the arse. Seems to always be Ofer.
7-1 now finally for arizona...and you betcha! he's Ofer.

Hate to say these words as a fellow Upton owner but sophomore slump (avg wise at least). His runs, Hr, and Sb are right on pace though. Patience.

This guy still has a ridiculous upside.

I kind of hear you. I drafted Upton not expecting more than a 30/100 campaign. Keeper leagues have to be patient with him, but the strikeout rate is concerning.

I don't know how old the article is but I remember reading a S.I. article on Reynolds earlier this year. In it they talked to Upton who apparently shared a similar view as Reynolds and that was swing for the fences everytime even if it means striking out. So the K rate is probably here to stay unless he changes his views. So long as his AVG doesn't dip to Reynolds or god forbid Pena's average things should be alright.
Darn can't find the article on S.I. Vaults doesn't look like they have any 2010 articles in there.
