You do know the point of being on offense in baseball is to not make outs, right? Youkilis and Pedroia make outs less frequently than Lugo. That's why runs are on the table.
See my previous post on that matter. Pedroia is equal to if not better than Lugo offensively.
What turns him off to you? The .300 average? The almost .400 OBP? The 112 OPS+?
Call me crazy, but I want a more consistent offensive player having the most at bats. Pedroia and Youks fit the bill quite nicely, especially in comparison to Lugo and Crisp.
