Excuse me? Since when are most of our guys all or nothing, non-contact hitters? They ranked 2nd in the league in runs and 8th in HRs. This team is all about putting the ball in play and that's why I like them.

They're streaky hitters that are great when they're hot, but were pure shit in the last 2 playoffs when they weren't. Miles is a guy where you know what you're getting with him every single game. We could've used a few of his singles the last couple years in October.

Are you trying to say that Miles <i>never</i> has an 0-fer? He <i>never</i> goes cold? Slappy singles hitters go into slumps, too. I don't care how gritty they are.
