Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Aaron Cunningham...

I'm sure some of you remember me posting my scouting report on Fautino de los Santos a while back (btw the entire Stockton rotation has gotten off to an excellent start I've seen), but I wrote an article for the Hardball Times, this time looking at Aaron Cunningham.  I know he is injured at the moment, but I like what he brings to the table.

He does everything well, has plus-make-up, gives the team a lot of versatility.  His swing overall is solid though he does a couple things I'm not sure I like.  

But you can take a look and draw your own conclusions.  Hopefully you guys enjoy it.

Couldn't be novaoakland

There are complete sentences and words spelled correctly in this fanpost. That pretty much means it can't be novaoakland.

Aaaah

The infamous Ivan De Jesus.

If Cunningham fulfills that projection I'll be happy. Thanks for the article, interesting read.

Great article NovaO

I must say, your diagnosis of his swing is dead on. His hips start to move forward then just stop, and you can see him getting tall, taking away from his power.

Spot-on analysis. Thank you.

2008 Oakland Athletics...more than meets the eye!
