Hopper has proved to be a much better player than many here have given him credit for, beginning with his callup in 06 and continuing to today.

That's what I thought when I was reading these laments. Sadly, I think there will be folks all season who have chosen to dislike Baker and we will, as someone noted, see lots of these types of threads.
I like Hopper alot and I think he's an important cog on this team. I'm not advocating for him to start, but I like having him available.
