SoxAce Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 10:11 PM) Well yea I agree. As a 4th OF I'd take Danks just because he's going to cost about 1/4 of De Aza and he can play CF. But I'm not entirely convinced a better LF than De Aza is needed next year. Team has bigger holes IMO. Agreed. Which is why I think that 4+ million can be better spread elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Abreu Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 10:20 PM) The only consistent thing about JorDanks hitting is that he's not good. He has significant holes in his swing. That's kind of what I meant by "more consistent hitter". Danks is fairly consistently below average while De Aza is either hitting .025 for the month or .375 for the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 26, 2014 -> 11:20 PM) What the problem is? Well he's only like one of the team's best hitters against RHP he should have PH for Kong, no question's asked, it's like 300 points of OPS in Dunn's favor.

If you want to play fun with selective endpoints look at Jordan's splits by month: http://www.fangraphs.com/statsplits.aspx?p...amp;season=2014 He vacillates between .98 and .289. It's a silly argument for any player let alone Jordan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I wonder if MLB.com would listen if I sent them an email asking them to switch their policy for commercials. How can this help the advertiser? I will not buy Phillips 66 just because of these incessant commercials. They are the same every half inning. It is like torture, not water torture but ear torture.
