Yes I agree Trueblue, FM Radio guy can you please explain the "select pitching" comment.
His road stats are a good indicator as it takes the effect of his home ballpark out of the equation. You could even argue that he should do better than his road stats at the Dome, but I won't argue that.
His OBP aint pretty, but his SLG makes up for it and at the bottom of the order I'd take a high SLG than a high OBP because you could have a guy who gets on base but never gets driven in by the guys around him. Sometimes a solo shot from the bottom of the order is just what you need since the top of the order will be getting on base a lot.
