Seems he tanks it when he doesn't get his way and hit leadoff.

That's what happens when you pay 18-20 million per for a guy's mid-30's in the post-steroid era where guys actually have normal aging curves now (except of course, David Ortiz, who somehow
The Wainwright extension was likely to be a disaster towards the end. The Molina once will likely be even worse. Aside from the Holliday and Carpenter contracts, I can't say too much good about Mozeliak's negotiating the last decade.

We have all seen this before, he will hit well for a number weeks and then go to shit again. Pretty odd the only place he seems to be able to hit is lead off. |

Hey great man he is a slightly above average MLB player. He also just got doubled off first because he is a shitty base runner. |

Yes and I am fully aware they dont take into account OPS etc...its not the perfect metric but it is indicative of player performance.
Points are based off hits, runs, rbi, etc.... Carp is the 23rd ranked 1st baseman for average points per game. It is what it is. http://games.espn.com/flb/playerrater?slotCategoryId=1 And keep in mid, we have a freaking 1st baseman hitting lead off because he doesn't perform anywhere else in the order. |
