Dickie Thon is an underrated hitter. Not to mention he has a cool name. Dickie.
Who agrees?

[GDavis]

He's better than most of the other guys on Houston.

[jcbball86]

i rarely use him, but i will give it a shot.

[GPines]

Might as well, they all suck. That Walling guy is absolutely horseshit.

[Gantry]

Thon is ok, but I think Phil Garner is the top sub on Houston.  He's no Jim Lindeman, but he has more power than most Astros...

[callmefairf]

Please.   Astros dominate.  That is all.  Thank you.

[Gantry]

If I had to rank the Houston subs, I would probably go:

1)  Garner
2)  Lopes
3)  Thon
4)  Terry Puhl day

Garner is a clear #1 and the other three are interchangable.  Lopes has a hold on #2 for now because of his great speed and surprising power.  Does anyone else hit more dingers than you would expect with Lopes?

Anyone else care to rank the Astro subs?

[GDavis]

My rankings are:

1) Lopes
2)Garner
3)Puhl
4)Thon

I think Lopes and Garner are even as far as power hitting and Lopes is a little faster so he gets the nod.  Same with Puhl and Thon, same power, so the faster Puhl is ranked higher.

[Gantry]

Lopes does have some pop for me, but Garner IMHO has a bit more.  Then again, I don't play enough with Houston to get a consistent reading....

[vgp100]

Here's my ranking:
1)DThon
2) Everyone else
3)
4)


Thon Rules!

[jcbball86]

1) garner
2) lopes
3) d thon
4) t puhl
