Sopmore Slumps

I think McGehee will be an okay player. Eyeballing an average of a few projection systems puts him around .270/.330/.420, which is more in line with his previous performance. Not a terrible player, but not close to the top tier of third basemen which is where you'd be putting him if you think he'll repeat his 2009 stats.

Yeah because every player with good minor league stats turn into super stars at the MLB level. Sure minor league stats count more than MLB stats. Sure. His MLB stats over 116 games are more important than whatever minor league stats are.

When did I ever say any of this?

I'm sorry that I'm challenging your opinion, but apparently you don't wish to actually have a civil discussion about it. Whatevs.
