Add to that his poor baserunning and inability to hit a cutoff man and I can't understand what all the hype is about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37446836.post-75703267990111632432008-05-05T20:56:00.000-05:002008-05-05T20:56:00.000-05:00And he can't throw all the way to second base from...And he can't throw all the way to second base from left field on less than three hops.

And he's bad at, you know, getting on base to a superlative degree. <BR/><BR/>Couple that with a 'curious' power outage last year and he, in no way, shape or form, provides a 'spark' (nebulous and dubious description at best) for anybody.<BR/><BR/>You're a Cub fan. You saw the evidence. Why would a team not unbelievably desperate sign him? Sure, the Cubs are paying $2 million of his salary this year but what left fielder currently playing doesn't have the potential to hit 15-20 homeruns?<BR/><BR/>Whatever team signs him has made a bad baseball decision. This is Phil Rogers-type logic. Look at his peripherals.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
