Gonzalez going Loney on us
The last time a starting LAD first baseman went the month of April without a home run was James Loney in 2009. It has only been done four times in LAD History. I used 80 PA as the criteria. At least Loney was hitting, Adrian is not even doing that.

Were you surprised to see Steve Garvey on this list? I sure was.

Gotta get cured of that tennis/golf elbow tendinitis.
The front hand is weak
Oppo the ball is likely to go
Bat him 7 or 8
