Settle down, “Calderon.”

In the English language fizzle means to fail after a strong start.

I can’t comprehend why you would speculate I don’t speak the English language. It’s grossly inappropriate and obviously based on the ethnicity of my last name.

That’s about what he averaged during the three years prior to last season’s injury-plagued statistical aberration. #174 – Marcus is a bit of a free-swinger, and PETCO is the worst park he could be going to, but when has 45 doubles, 15 homers, 15 steals, and a .855 OPS ever been considered crap from a second baseman?
