What is odd is that you:
A) Completely spin the subject around. Scutaro was brought in knowing he had average-to-slightly above average D at SS but had a much more steady bat than Gonzales (as in, could actually get on base).
B ) Say you know more about defensive performance than the FO, yet think Lowell, at this stage of his career, is a better defender than Beltre. You said you could evaluate defensive talent better than the FO, i sure as hell don't, and i'm an average fan who watches the games (whether you like it or not, i watch as many games as you do), therefore you are much more informed than the average fan, and your talents would be better utilized spearheading the scouting department of a team's FO.
Just make the contacts and get a job in MLB. I hate to see talent wasted.
