Heads22 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Player A: .291, 20 HR, 51 RBI, 13 2B, 30 BB, 57 K Player B: .233, 20 HR, 51 RBI, 25 2B, 61 BB, 124 K Highlight below to see what's going on: Player A is Jermaine Dye. Player B is the combined totals of Alfonso Soriano and Milton Bradley. Dye is being paid $11.5 million this year, while the other two are making $21 million dollars combined. Throw in the fact that after 10 more games, Bradley's 2011 option vests. Just thought that was interesting to note on an off day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kjshoe04 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I love me some JD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I can't wait to see how long it takes the Cubs to try to deal Bradley. Anyone could see that was a trainwreck just waiting to happen. Soriano I have faith will have a big second half. He seems to be a late bloomer during the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFanForever Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 But look at all those walks for player(s) B! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RME JICO Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I also love the fact that JD is a consummate pro and great in the clubhouse. Bradley is a cancer and you don't hear too much about Soriano. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 The average, homers, and RBI's are what stand out. He has half as many doubles, walks, and strikeouts as both combined. Very interesting comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoSox05 Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I thought the second guy was gonna be Mark Reynolds. I don't know why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santo=dorf Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 He has half as many doubles, walks, and strikeouts as both combined. which means he doubles, walks and strikeouts on average just as much as the two individuals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmo9246 Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I really would rather hold onto Dye rather than Thome in terms of a DH for the future. A lot of people have slammed me for this but in recent years all Jim really has on Jermaine is OBP. Dye is as good or better in most other areas, is younger (a little), and costs less.

I think JD might be the most underappreciated Chicago athlete EVER. He's been nothing but money since he's been here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been nothing but money since he's been here. Except for 2007. Which is why I remember being so pissed that we re-signed him after that season. I'm happy to eat crow now...
