Well - this is vague, but Rubeskies, there are HOF CFs with worse OBP than that (okay, maybe not) - Thayer's point is, you can find any schmuck 1B to hit .382 SLG - Mientkiewicz's projection for this season. You can't find center fielders who do what Damon does just lying around. Doug also hasn't had the best showing so far in spring training.

Yeah, I agree. I'm just as surprised as anyone that Doug is the Yankees opening day 1Bman. Personally I'd rather them throw this Juan Miranda kid into the mix and see what he's got. But I don't think Doug's AS bad as everyone is making his out to be.
