WHAT CAN PATTERSON DO THAT HOPPER CAN'T?
Steal 40 bases? What else?

Hit from the left side of the plate ?
Hit a HR every now and then (more than once a season)?
Have a SLG higher than his OBP?
Look, I'm no fan of Patterson - based on his previous history - but I'm DEFINITELY not more of a fan of Hopper because of it. In fact, it might make me hate him more than I already did, because he'll likely be the RH complement to Patterson.
