i think that's a little extreme. ethier will definitely be more durable but it would probably be a difference of 150 games from ethier vs. 120 games from cameron
i'm all for upgrading left field. i just think there are better options out there
lester because he's been doing it for 3 years now and the red sox can plug him in to the rotation and know he's good for 200 innings, 200 strikeouts and an era in the top 10 of the american league. and the scary part is that he's only 26 and he's still improving. this is his most impressive year yet and he's about to enter his prime
i'm not crazy about ethier. he's a better hitter than cameron, there's no debate about it. but his bad defense limits his value and i don't like the fact that he can't hit lefties. we already have enough players who can't hit lefties
in my opinion he's not worth the talent we'd have to give up to acquire him
alright, it's my bed time. if this was a big game i'd watch but with daisuke pitching, i'm not going to stay up until 3am to see if we can remain 7 games back of the wild card or not
have a good night everyone!
