Frenchy's OPS+ since getting regular time in '06:
87
102
72
93
85
119* (first year with KC)
Currently at 77. While he's down from his career average, we're seeing a more realistic picture of who Francoeur is as a hitter, and this is exactly why the stat guys wanted nothing to do with the guy stepping foot in KC in the first place.
Regarding Dyson: baseball instincts are not "learned." Even if one wants to argue that they can be, they cannot be learned at the ML level. A Cassel comparison is apt. Decent athlete who completely lacks the necessary instincts to play the position effectively.
