Would these numbers be good enough for our SS

If we could get a GG type of SS who could post these type of offensive numbers would you be happy especially if he cost us under say 1.5 million per season...

10-15 Homeruns per year
50-60 RBI's per year
.260-.270 avg
.350+ obp
.380-.400 slg

No the question is, would you be okay with those numbers from your short stop who is paid under 1.5 million and has GG potential.

Who said anything about batting him second? At no time have I ever said bat him second, in fact I said you bat him 8th, now if Dusty is to stupid to see that, how is that janish's fault?

Re: Would these numbers be good enough for our SS

okay what if your starting SS put up these numbers for his first 3 seasons on your team, would you keep him or dump him?

BA: .260 - .205 - .209
obp: .324 - .246 - .272
HR: 1 - 1 - 2
RBI's 19 - 20 - 29
SLG .317 - .251 - .270
GP: 101 - 130 - 119


If you are the GM and manager, you have seen your starting SS post these numbers in his first 3 seasons...would you bring him back for a fourth? Would you bench him or just get rid of him?

I would find a more producative player... If that player was 20-21-22 years of age, sure... but Janish is 28 Man!

So you would have cut that SS who posted those type of numbers his first three season in the show? Don't you think you should give him a few more years to see if he is going to develope?

i am not asking for Janish to be the SS for 2-3 years, I am looking at next season. i believe if batted in the 8th spot and allowed to play everyday he could easily beat out the numbers i posted at the beginning. No he is never going to be Barry Larkin, but we don't need that, we need a SS who is GG caliber and can help cover for a very poor defensive 3rd basemen.

He doesn't have the power in your hypothetical.

Janish at shortstop isn't going to make or break this team, either. They have enough offense in their lineup that one player isn't going to sink them.
