Nevin is batting .280/.330/.486. The average is ok, the OBP is poor, and the slugging percentage is just below average for an outfielder. Nevin is doing just average so far.

If you take his HR and RBI pace and extrapolate it over 162 games it would be 38HR and 153RBI. Sounds "average" to me o_O

And about the Padres. Just food for thought. Before their current series with Houston they had a .534 WP since 6/28. If they had that WP the whole season they would have been 1 game out of the NL WC. Not too shabby for a team that has seen its top 4 paid players play less than 50% of total possible games. They will certainly add a veteran ace over the winter to anchor the rotation Lawrence/Eaton/Peavy. They will probably go after a catcher as well, Kendall, Varitek, and J. Lopez being the prime candidates. Going after a shortstop, while not out of the question, is less likely because of Greene.

He might also cost me my season. I told my good friend to pick him up when he had 3rd base troubles. Now I'm playing him in the playoffs and he is biting me in the a**.

If, if, if, if, if and more ifs. Who cares? Nevin is not going to play 162 games this year and he not going to get 38 HRs and 153 RBIs.

153 rbi's? That's a lot of runs scored for Brian Giles. I could use them too! Come on Nevin! You can doooooooooo it!

Sorry, just being silly. It's been really slow here today.

The key word is IF. If, if, if. I hate the if game. Pace means nothing. If a guy could go 38-153, he would.
