Neither
I would love to have Mike Morse as our SS right now....
The guy is hitting 0.395, 1 HR, 9 RBI, 2 SB, 0.461 OBP in 24 games
Yeah, small sample size but he looks promising. Please note I am not whining about the Freddie trade. I still think it was a great trade as we have a solid starting pitching core for now and the near future, and I have no qualms with the trade whatsoever given hindsight is always 20/20......but it sure would look promising right now if we had Morse playing on this team. A grinder like him low in the order would be awesome....with that average he would have 3 times the RBI here and at least 3 times the runs scored with Pods, Guch, Frank batting after him (assuming he would play in the #9 hole)
I'm hoping you are saying this crap just to get a rise out of people. Ya, lets drool over a kid that has 78 career ABs at the big league level. Not to mention that Uribe can play a better SS defensively with a broken arm, than Morse could. Lets use bigger sample sizes before we proclaim Mike Morse the next Alex Rodriguez at SS.
I'll take Juan Uribe at SS over Mike Morse 7 days a week, twice on Sunday.
