Ankiel's Assists

I agree freak5.  I would put Ankiel better than top 5.  To be honest I can't think of one player that has the arm strength Ankiel has to go along with the accuracy. 

Got a tough question for everyone.  If Ankiel keeps playing like he is and getting better do you move him to a corner spot once Rasmus comes up next year?  I personally would leave Ankiel in center and mover Rasmus to a corner spot.  It doesn't get much better than Ankiel right now in center.

I agree with you guys. When I saw Ank make that throw from deep left center to get that runner trying for the triple and gun him out, I thought abou what the late Jack Buck said about Kirk Gibsons gw homerun. "Unbelieveable!!! I don't believe what I just saw!!!" Jimmy Ballgame made some very dandy plays for us in is day but it's a relief to know that we have a bona fide successor to Jimmy.

To me, the one thing that's gonna make him stand out amongst the rest of the CF'ers is the fact that he used to be a pitcher. That's why he has such a good, strong, accurate throwing arm. Looks like all those pointers he got from Jimmy Ballgame are gonna pay off really big for us. The one thing I can't wait for is when we get to play the Padres and Jimmy sees for himself why we dealt him. I'm sure that even Jimmy's gonna be amazed at Ank the Tank.

Gentlemen, what I think our Cards should do when Colby Rasmus gets called up is to use him in left field. I think we would have one of the best outfields in Rasmus in left, Ankiel in center and a platoon of Schumaker/Ludwick in right. And get rid of Chris Duncan.

Great game Ank the Tank!!! Keep it up dude!!!

GO CARDS!!!!     68

No doubt, Sunny&Ben! That was awesome. Why do they allways put the lamest photograph up on the team site, I mean Ankiel hits one out and guns out 2 guys at 3rd and they give us a pic of Isturis getting ran into at second? That is weak. Anyway...Cards are the hottest team in baseball, GO CARDS!!
