lol, I apparently fell rear end backwards into a good point by bringing up Juan Pierre. I didn't see that coming. I'm gonna pat myself on the back like I'm some genius, but thank you to those who used his stat lines to make the real argument.
Logically it makes a ton of sense. I still don't know that I like it. I like people that can get on base. But hitting is hard. So stringing a bunch of hits together to reward a singles hitter is even harder. The more you can control your own destiny with power and extra base hits, the better.
