[QUOTE="Ryllini, post: 1182427, member: 10826"] I spoke in comparison about his career and it was a good one, but you need to take a look at his past 4 seasons and get back to me on his career averages in OPS and OBP, they aren't at career marks anymore. Granted 3 and 4 years ago were riddled by injury, but he has been relatively healthy the past two and guess what, trend continues. So yes, he isn't good, but his baseball life gets expanded. Listen do I want the DH, no, but I do want the same rules across the board so the two leagues can assemble batting lineuos of similar ilk. Think about this, baseball is the only sport where the defense controls the ball 99.999999% of the time and now and since '73 a player doesn't have to play defense anymore? [/QUOTE]
