Delgado.? He has the defense AND the bat while Thome just has the bat.

Thome is a lot better defensively than Delgado.

Perhaps right now. But just give Perry Hill a few months with Delgado and that could change.

I guess ill have to post it again

 

Delgado had the 6th best Fielding PCT. for 1b in the MLB last year... Thome at 13

Delgado also 3rd in range factor, 5th in zone rating.

 

Nice scope Accord

With Pierre, Castillo, and Cabs always getting on base....it wouldn't shock me to see Delgado have 130-140 ribbies. As long as he hits over 30 jacks, Im happy!

 

I feel the same way, but take a look at the ESPN article. On the side there is a fantasy take on the deal, and they basically say this is the worst place he could have ended up. I agree with the ballpark dimension arguments, but they also say something to the effect of, "In that lineup there's no way he's getting 130 RBI." That's a totally ridiculous statement and shows how little sportswriters know about sports outside of NY, Boston, and LA.

...and in a lineup that will hinder his chances of ever approaching 130 RBI again

:blink: I'm pretty sure he'll be getting plenty of RBI's.....
