Elijah Dukes

Elijah Dukes has someone in his corner.

"Says Tamargo [his AAA manager], 'Oh my God, he is going to be some special player. You're talking about a guy who can run, throw and is going to hit 40 to 45 homers a year. "

Looking at Dukes' 10 HR so far, there definitely seems to be a bit of hyperbole going on, but earlier, Tamargo pointed out, "If not for the 32-foot-high left-field wall in Durham, Dukes might have 25 home runs instead of 10 with his line-drive power."
