25 games. He's been playing big league ball for 12 months (5 in '06, 6 in '07, 1 in '08). With a career OPS of .730, he's had 6 months that are either +/- .100 or more from that mean. He's shown an ability to be either very hot or very cold. My guess is those looking to crow might want to give the other shoe a chance to drop before doing so. Just a thought.
Same should go for you, especially. You in particular have had a tendancy, since 2005, to rip Melky and his abilities. In 2006 when he went on his first hot-streak I remember you calling it a fluke and saying something along the lines of "I hope the Yankees FO buys into this and is stupid enough to hang onto him for the long-term. It won't last." Not exactly word for word, but it was something to that effect.
