Jesus Flores

I was just wondering what you guys think of him. still a young guy at catcher. had 8 homers and 59 rbi playing for an injury plauged nats team. his batting average isn't great but last years .256 wasent too bad.

Maybe an option in NL only leagues or leagues with two catchers starting....a bad option though really. What does he do well? His RBI total seems kinda flukey to me.

idk i was just curious, the rbi numbers might not be that bad with zimmerman, willingham, dukes, milledge and guzman in the lineup.

Jesus Flores power is real, but his AVG will be low. Even the power is not tremendous power, but it's decent for a catcher. He batted 5th and 6th in the lineup for most of the years, which will translate in getting a few RBIs, but not many runs. I'd expect more of the same in 09. Not many runs, but enough RBIs to make him a decent option in two catchers leagues.
