He's been very lucky with men in scoring position, which has of course dried up lately (like everyone else on the team)

 

and nobody's defense is good enough to make up for a .266/.289/.369

 

right on cue, Peavy. Can't wait til you're gone, chump.

 

Alexei had 3 times as many walks last year as this year

You banking on Youk having a healthy/rebound season, huh?

 

Not a chance in hell I want Youk back. And I was the one (along with JoeCool) who was pimping the idea of him coming here.

 

At the same time not many 3B available. Let Hahn get creative.

Rios would easily have 10 more RBI's if Dunn and Konerko didn't have to be held at third. Ramirez RBI total has been the beneficiary of that.

lol what??? he's a shortstop

 

70+ RBI's from your god damned 8 hitter!

 

3rd in RBIs among shortstops, 6 behind the leader

 

4th since 2009 (including Hanley Ramirez, no longer a SS)

 

He's been a top 5 SS in all of baseball since he entered the league by most measures. I'm happy to have him around

I'm not going to argue with a guy who thinks RBI's are an important stat. If you can't see that Alexei's bat is busted then I don't know man.

 

Maybe he will bounce back but he stunk this year.

 

You know why we look at stats, right? It's to predict the amount of runs a player will contribute. Look, he scores runs and drives runs in. You might not like that he's been excellent with RISP because that's "lucky" but it is what it is. He's been a remarkably productive SS that adds huge value defensively as well.
