Fuck. That.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Why is that a bad thing? Fontenot killed the ball last year and Miles was a .300 hitter. As long as they play average to good defensively I really don't see it as a big deal. Miles is the same kind of hitter that Theriot is.

Last year was the first time in his career that he hit over .300, I don't think that qualifies him as a ".300 hitter". Also, his career OBP is .329. I'm not too thrilled about Miles getting more ABs than he has to, especially if he's getting starts at SS where he's VERY limited.
