Pretty awful class for hitters. Chavez should be better but not sure how exactly. Maybe a G in walks/B in 2B? Casey Blake had a few good years, he seems low overall. And Beltran could use a B somewhere, maybe HR or BB I agree with the first two thoughts here, but don't have any numbers to see if there's anything valid to change. Probably more on Chavez than Blake. |

Blake would be the guy you have to pay to upgrade, had a couple good seasons but... not a career or even a top 7 year type guy

Thames should 100% be good homers at the worst
He hit 20+ in half a season multiple times.

Eric Chavez had a .268 average. That's not even close to being good. Can we not bump people for the sake of it?

If people want them to be better they can spend on players.

a platoon player only hits against one type of pitcher (left or right) as an every day player he would not have had the inflated per 162.

.280 is still .05 too low not according to the doc Chris and I worked on a few seasons ago Chris definitely changed some of the numbers. That's why bub got a different result for Oswalt than I did |

Chavez sucked against LHP, but played everyday so his numbers suffer? he'd be AVG/GOOD/FAIR, which even with a boost to good in hits, without PDs he's a platoon/bench player. |
