Also soriano does not want to play the outfield and that is where they want him. He said he would retire if a team would put him out there. Also the mets said reyes was too much for soriano like three or four days back.
Didn't i say lead-off or in the two hole? O.K.
Also an ops of .320? I think you are mistaken. Because he would be worse than a pitcher.
Edit: If was was as good of a hitter as you make him out to be. Lack of protection should not really matter, now should it?
In the nba he is not a two. Alot of people not just me thinks this. I am not saying he won't stay in the league as a two. Buf if he ever wants to start playing the point will be his way to go in this case. Skiles is gonna start playing him at the point because he believes hinrich is a shotting guard which is just silly imo.
Gordon is not a two. They are trying to make him into one and you can see he is not comfortable with it. He is a point guard, that can play the two if needed. But there is no way in hell the two should be his defining role.
So you are going by a sample size once more? Nice. Wtf does he need protection for? Accoring to you he is a lead-off or two hole hitter. If that is the case it should not matter if he has you and me hitting behind him.
They got a player in return with a couple years left, they felt they where in the playoff hunt and thought at the time he was an upgrade over kazmir. What do you not understand? Oh, yes, nothing.
Please answer me this. Why the f*** is cabrera a better long term solution? Polanco's os better in nearly every single statistic. Not just this past year over their entire careers.
