I guess I just don't see the point on estimating 7 outfielders getting 400 ABs.
Just as we look to the past to predict the future, so do I look to what HAS occurred when it comes to Jones and Kent. They've both dealt with injuries and Jones is younger than Kent, but Jones is the one with the startling drop-off, excuses be damned.
I'm not down on LaRoche, he's just a young platoon player at the moment. His AAA and winter league stats may be nice, but the Show is different. I hope he breaks out, yanks the starting job away from Nomar and slugs .500.....but it just won't happen, not this year.
