Saturday Chatter: Andre Ethier Pacquiao Mosely Kentucky Derby
Andre Ethier - At 30 games will Ethier take down the legend Joe Dimaggio and the record 56 game hitting streak? First he will have to go for the franchise record held by Willie Davis and his 31 game hit streak hit back in 1969. The hits streak has been impressive to start the season with only one game this year did he not get a hit and that was April 1st, since then his bat has been on fire. The hit streak also has 11 games were he has got multiple hits in game. Going long ball has only happened three times, must be looking for contact and not messing up the swing looking for the fences. He has 22 total strikeouts for the season that is one third less than his 66 total hits also impressive. For all fantasy players looking for average .379 for the season should help win a few points. Baseball card collectors should be looking for his 2005 Topps Chrome Auto Refractor for a nice piece of cardboard memorabilia.
Manny Pacquiao - The fight is on! The WBO Welterweight Title Fight is Saturday night in Pacquiao vs. Mosely! The weigh in is final and the fight is due! Manny at weigh in weighed at 145 two pounds lighter that Mosely. Manny is 52-3-2 with 38 knockout wins, that is a lot of power in a 145 pound body. Manny is a 6-1 favorite going into the fight as a 10 time world champion in 8 weight classes will be ready for the showdown. His last fight in Dallas, Texas was a barn burner when he defeated Antonio Margarito by points. The offense is ruthless abandon from the gloves of Pacquiao and with all the fire power behind it the crowd will be behind the champ.
Shane Mosely - The underdog is looking for the big payday and a chance to take out the legend in the sport. Shane has an impressive 46-6-1 record himself. His knockout power is similar in the fact he has 36 knockouts in those 46 wins. His last fight went to a draw with Sergio Mora, so a win is all he has in his sights. The 12 round fight will be a war of two pounders going at it both with powerful punches. This could be a fight for the ages or a quick knockout by either fighter. Mosley is hoping its him and proves he is one of the best!
