No, he's below average SS. As I said, I'm fine with a SS that can't hit, so long as they are exceptional defensively. Lugo SUCKS defensively. He's horrible. And offensively, well, he's pretty bad. I loved Gonzalez because he was a gold glove calibre SS. You have to be able to field or hit, or at least be average at both. Lugo is below average at both. And your right, I don't like average players. The only average players that should be on a big market team are rookies and cheap fill-ins. Lugo is neither.
