He hit the ball on the screws numerous times but only had a few line outs to show for it. I don't know that he'll ever be an All-Star again, but I think it's incredibly premature to say things like "we're better off without him".<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
His struggles predate his slow start this season. He hit .266/.343/.390 in the second half of 2008. The BA and OBP aren't terrible (pretty average, really). But the SLG is awful.
