Simple stats. Try fan graphs were it has extended stats. Now I understand y people think he is good. Using basic stats is like 10 years ago. Modern day extended stats show more | You never answered my question. Do you watch the Tigers often, or at all? _________________

I don't think anybody is suggesting we use Berry as a pillar on which to build long-term, but rather just to let him contribute while he's actively a big building block of our winning streak.
Ultimately, "the real Berry" is the one that's out there every day, helping put wins together for the club. Do I expect it to last? No, but I'm absolutely welcome to the occasional surprise.
Think of Chris Shelton. Wisely, we acquired Sean Casey down the stretch, but he was a huge component of our early wins in 2006. _________________ Football is love, love is life. |

Hell, I'm being called a homer and told I'm overrating Berry just because I said he's more valuable than Kelly and Rayburn.
Detfan is the only one here who is taking things to the extreme, and being completely unreasonable. _________________

This is why I stopped our converstation. Not because he had a different view point, but because it kept running along into other things.
The main point and only point is Berry is fine for this year vs going out and giving up something for an OF, especailly the ones being named(Pence/Victorino). Tigers likely have their future RF in Castellanos. Even if Berry cooled off a outfiled of Dirks/Jackson/Boesch isn't terrible. |

Again go back and read and he said if Berry continued this type of production for 4-5 years he'd be very happy.
Being unreasonable and taking it to the extreme. Heres the quote.

If we somehow squeeze 4-5 years of this kind of production out of Berry (bringing him to age 32-33 or what have you), then I'm a very happy camper. Jackson/Berry are making for a very legitimate 1-2 punch... then of course you have the big fellas. |

I know they moved him there. Not stupid. I read the news.
My point remains. He has not shown he can even play there yet.
Thanks for proving nothing yet again.
I am sorry I would rather upgrade a career minor league guy over and rather then wait on a prospect who is 2 years away and has yet to even really play the position. _________________

Not lacking. Simply live in reality while you all live in some fantasy. If they do no upgrade OF they will not be going to the World Series. Simple as that _________________
