Brewer All-Star Update
I'll be in and out most of this week, as relatives are in town. However, just wanted to leave you with this question posed to me by a buddy:
All the national media have this National League outfielder pegged as a no-brainer all star:
AB: 316
R: 53
2B: 23
HR: 15
RBI: 30
SB: 10
BA: .304
OBP: .352
SLG: .544
Now look at this outfielder, who hasn't been mentioned for anything:
AB: 218
R: 39
2B: 12
HR: 11
RBI: 32
SB: 16
BA: .317
OBP: .388
SLG: .532
The first outfielder is the Cubs' Alfonso Soriano, while the second is Brewer Corey Hart. Not a whole lot of difference, but, of course, all-star picks are based almost solely on reputation.
Discuss.
