Just sayin.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
He's a shitty hitter, I don't think anybody denies that. But he's good enough to put at the #8 spot in the lineup and he's a huge upgrade at SS. Championship teams are good up the middle. Having a shortstop that makes all of the plays and more would make this a better team. Our lineup -should- be able to score enough runs to afford to have a Jack Wilson in the lineup. Obviously I'd rather get a guy that can hit and play defense, but there's really nobody else out there like that. I know people will give me the RockiesClapp shit but I'd give my left nut to acquire a Tulowitzki.

I don't think I could handle the "Tulo" chant - that might be a deal breaker for me.
