Well he isn't so he shouldn't be. But on national sports shows? Pretty often when they talk about infielders.

ok, but when you talk about the average this guy hits for - and no it's not the park in his case, IMO. Power? Sure. But not so much average.

He's a singles hitter with very little plate discipline, no real power and awful road splits. He's making at least twice as much as he should and has very low value at a power position like 3B (though the Rangers lineup more than makes up for it.) He's a very nice player to have in your lineup but he's no where near a top tier offensive talent.

 

I'd say that he has very poor range in the infield but I have a hunch you'd dispute that.

He's only playing there because this team makes him. He's really a 2B. I would like to see his road splits... can you give me a URL?

Brent Lillibridge is just terrible.

Exactly. Yet another POS scrub on our roster. We have too damn many guys like this (thank God we have one less in Owens).

LMAO. Josh can't run.

 

We need another one here.

 

Josh actually runs pretty well.

 

What I can't understand is Cox's decision making process.

 

He'll send a guy like AJ or Thome when it's obviously not a good idea...

 

And he holds up Getz and Fields when sending them seems like a no-brainer.

 

WTH?

The Lillibridge experiment has to end.

He is not a big leaguer. Yet another guy who has to go. Just cut him loose. He can't hit a baseball.

Are we all unanimous on this???

GET RID OF HIM.

It's going to get even worse if Dye goes to the DL. I bet KW is really, really regretting the Swisher trade now.

For his size, you're right. I didn't see if he could have made it or not.

Jeff Cox is a terrible 3rd base coach. He's worse than Joey Cora was. Also, our bunting and base running has gotten worse since Cox took over.
