Who is the Christian Villanueva, Padres 3B.....In his first 14 games, counting last season, he has hit 7 HRs....he hit 3HRs yesterday....the basic write up on him is that he was not drafted and was out of options.....Any chance he might be something, or just flash-in-the-pan?

Not sure, but sure hope he cools down before he plays the Astros in a few days.

he is 26 years old, played last year in el paso, hit 20 home runs, a rather unflattering minor league resume in general. I doubt he keeps it up.

I made a mistake I watched it on the network, not ESPN. Stanton struck out 5 times and Yankee stadium booed him

Generally speaking. to bet booed at MMP a player has to do something really bad (at least in the eyes of the fans). Such as Beltran leaving the team (the first time). Or, one evening I'll never forget -- Omar Moreno letting a ball drop in front of him in CF as he stood there with his hands on his hips. He had been having a contract dispute with the front office and wanted to show his displeasure. Fans showed their own displeasure that night too.

He says he is the next Steve Finley, Luis Gonzalez and JD Martinez....That the Astros gave up on the wrong Tucker
