The guy kills righties, and first place would be the least bad place to put him in the field. <BR/><BR/>Well, I guess DH would be better ... but we've got the worst DH in the AL, so why would you want to replace him?Nusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16787190878612482337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27835148.post-72406913612381538732007-07-24T12:57:00.000-07:002007-07-24T12:57:00.000-07:00I do agree 100% with getting Broussard more at-bat...I do agree 100% with getting Broussard more at-bats. I've said from the beginning of the season that 1st base had to be a platoon situation at worst. <BR/><BR/>If you average his numbers per at-bat, and compare them to Sexson's, Broussard would have 12.6 HR's to Sexson's current 16. What's the justification of having Sexson in the line-up everyday? Oh, that's right, his power. Well, I'll take 75 points on a batting average over a four HR differential any day. <BR/><BR/>And another thing; being 6'8" doesn't make you a great first basemen. Sexson is good in the field, but reports that I've heard on Broussard in the past are that he is a Gold Glove caliber first basemen if given the opportunity to play everyday. <BR/><BR/>All that Broussard has done with the opportunity that he has been given is produce. He has produced a heck of a lot more than Sexson, Vidro, and Ibanez, or any of those two players combined for that matter. And apparently he can play any of those positions as well. What is keeping this guy out of the line-up? Answer me Nuss, what?<BR/><BR/>Broussard everyday, and Jones with the big club may be a spark, but the truth is, this team will not make the playoffs with out at least one more reliable starter on the mound. <BR/><BR/>Jo~JoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27835148.post-50680505340677086322007-07-23T19:46:00.000-07:002007-07-23T19:46:00.000-07:00DO NOT TRADE ADAM JONES.Bring him up.

I did watch him last year, where he still looked a little undisciplined at the plate and unsure of himself in the outfield.<BR/><BR/>All reports this year are that those areas have improved greatly. He's striking out more than most people would like -- about once per game -- but there's a lot of evidence out there that strikeouts don't hurt teams as much as people tend to think they do.

I even remember a guy, who I heard was a pretty good hitter, stuck for a couple years playing third for the M's in Tacoma because he was behind Jim Presley. His name was Edgar Martinez. Also, most people forget that he was decently speedy before his hammy injury. He actually came in as a pinch runner for his first play in the majors. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, I'd love to see Jones brought up if a trade is not in the works. <BR/><BR/>Have you gone to see him play in Tacoma?Dr Pezzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09160506091556539766noreply@blogger.com
