Plate discipline.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Yeah, I guess guys like Alfonso Soriano, Vladimir Guerrero, Andre Dawson, et al. couldn't overcome their lack of plate discipline.

There is no such thing as one characteristic that trumps all in baseball. Is plate discipline a good measure of a player? Many times it is. But it doesn't matter how many times you say it trumps everything else, that will never make it true.

I find it funny how you can take any two people here, ask them two completely different questions, and find a huge gap in difference of opinion in the answer of each question. You'd think that since we are all Cubs fans mostly in the midwest that we would think very much alike on a lot of topics. I just find it neat that we can agree on this topic and violently disagree on a probability question.
