Now I am one of the few who would like to get Alfonso Soriano but that probably wont happen. With the return of B-rob as our leadoff man, I don't see why we need Chavez in left. We should give Pearce atleast a week or two straight of playing leftys and rightys and see if we stole a real diamond in the rough from the stanks. It's not like we will lose any production even if he does stink. He really looks like a good ball player to me. Just a thought...

I agree about giving Pearce a chance. The only thing Chavez seems to bring to the game is speed....which is of little value since he doesn't get on base....and his defense isn't all that great from what I've seen. Pearce looks and plays like he's hungry. So....feed him, Buck!

I think we could easily get a 750 OPS with good OBP from Pearce or more. And with some decent defense, I'm fine with that as a stopgap. Chavez has been just brutal. He's cost us 1.1 WAR in only 108 plate appearances. And ZIPS projects him at replacement level from here on out, which seems about right to me.
