August 2, 200422 yr If rbis are such a significant stat I guess Tony Batista is as good as Barry Bonds. :plain
August 2, 200422 yr Farmer Fran, you want to start Cordero when he comes back? If so, why? 490063[/snapback] Well, I have no idea how Cordero will come back, but if Enc continues to struggle, I would definitely want Cordero to get a shot at the starting lineup. He has been a significantly better hitter than Enc over the last couple years.
August 2, 200422 yr Cordero would be a major downgrade defensively and would not contribute to team speed. He is an average hitter AT BEST.. But I don't think we have to worry about him starting. The guy misses more than half the season due to injury, it seems like, every year.

I know that Cordero isn't that great, but as of right now Enc is a below average hitter at best, and I believe if Cordero can come back and play like he did last year, which I definitely won't guarantee, he would be an upgrade over a struggling Enc. Sticking him at first base would not hurt our defense too much. I just think he deserves a shot if Enc continues to struggle, but I'm going to give Enc some time, we'll see how he does.
August 2, 200422 yr well if youre gonna use Cordero's numbers from last year as an argument, then use Encarnacions numbers from last year too.
August 2, 200422 yr well if youre gonna use Cordero's numbers from last year as an argument, then use Encarnacions numbers from last year too. 490082[/snapback] Ok Cordero: BA .278 OBP .354 SLG% .450 HR 16 Enc.: BA .270 OBP .313 SLG% .446 HR 19 (Enc had 175 more at-bats than Cordero) Even though it doesn't matter, I thought it might get some of you excited. Cordero RISP: .291 Enc. RISP: .262
