Loretta & Nevin & Burroughs not in the lineup (Blum & Fick & Nady instead) ...

I'm also assuming he'll change his approach and drive the ball more batting lower in the order. I expect Burroughs to make modest gains on his 2003 season. Call it a hunch.<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-724">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> I basically threw out last year since it’s not in line with what he’d done in his first full season and in the minors.

Not only that, but that he can build on it and go to 15 HR annually from now on. But sadly, I believe it'll be the ZIPS BTT one: .297 BA, .354 OBP, .382 SLG, 5 HR<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-721">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> The optimist in me wants .297 BA, .357 OBP, .415 SLG, 9 HR because I know he has it in him.
