can hidalgo keep this up?

[Mark86]

I was surprised to see how well Hidalgo has been doing this season. I think he can keep it up. At this point, he is the one providing the most offense for my team. I picked him up two days after the season started!

[CubsFan7724]

i wouldnt be suprised if hidalgo keeps it up. Hes a talented player.

[Pedantic]

I have my doubts about Hidalgo. I wouldn't bet on Hidalgo having a better season than Berkman. But I have been wrong many a time before...

[The Indestructible]

Hidalgo is in a contract year.

Take a look at his career stats and guess which other year was a contract year for him.

With that having been said, he won't put up *those* numbers, but I don't see any reason why he'll do less than what he did last year.

[mkooljr1]

Yes, he'll hit .556 all year.

[GSes]

yes he can keep it up.

He was very good last season. And everyone was high on him until it came draft time, and then he slipped.

I remeber last season. everyone saying how they were going to pick Hidalgo in 2004, and then everyone forgot about him.

Hidalgo is not going to be better then Berkman, I just don;t see that. However he can easily be a top 20 outfielder.

He won't be better than Berkman, but he'll be productive.

I also wouldn't be surprised to see him dealt if he continues playing hot. The Astros wouldn't mind trading him. That would hurt him, because the Astros have a strong lineup and play at a hitter's park.

[DaveFer]

yo guys! remember that this guy hit more than 40 HR in a season???

he can easily do that again with playin in a friendly hitters park and with such a good lineup that the astros have... i wouldnt be surprised if he winds up battin 90/40/120/300/10SB

Contract years do amazing things to players. I'm banking on him.
