As I noted in my last post, Ryan Church will now be the starting RF for The Mets in 2008. Church was once projected by general manager Jim Bowden as another Jim Edmonds. That would be very nice but sorry, its not gonna happen.. In 2007, Ryan Church batted .272 with 15 HR and 70 RBI in 470 AB's but, he did bat .340 with 3 HR and 12 RBI in 19 games at Shea Stadium. According to Mlbtraderumors.com..
"The 29 year-old Church has a career OPS over .800, and may be a bit underrated. But he is 29 and not likely to get much better."
Hopefully he will develop a little more power and hit around 20-25 HR with 75-85 RBI.
