We are going to end up eating a LOT of that contract because Lee is, I guess, unwilling to not see if he can get fatter than Bartolo Colon and Kirby Puckett combined and Lee will need to be traded to the AL as a DH in a few years, that is, if he can manage replica Breitling A4935011-G5-4 Men's watch not to break his back or knees with all that excess fat.So I called Mama.She was grim.Unless every pitcher manages to induce grounders to short, he's gonna see his ERA go up by at LEAST 1.5 runs.And, she said, because of the terrible defense, they are gonna try to strike out every hitter and home run field will return.This was a really stupid signing, she said.Every stat geek she knows agrees.
(Mitchel Lichtman, a well known defensive stat geek says “This is the worst signing of the off-season.It is horrendous.I defended the Soriano and replica Breitling E7536210-B5 Men's watch Matthews signings.This one is indefensible.Lee, by all rights, is a terrible defender at this point in his career (interestingly, prior to 05, his UZR was above average).His baserunning lwts also took a nose-dive in 05.That and his UZR decline suggests that he has lost his speed.He is an average left fielder overall at best.At best.
I've discussed him several times these past few months, and remind everyone that although he hits mostly lefty, he has essentially the wsame offensive numbers as Pedro Feliz over the past 4 years, in spite of the fact that the Astros Organization is portraying Feliz as the second coming of Scott Rolen 04.Blum did a better than average job with the glove, too.This year, he is ostensibly the LH PH off the bench, backup 3B and replica Longines L2.642.8.51.2 Men's watch backup 2B and SS as well.
