Player | 2007 Salary | 2006 AB | K | BB | AVG | SLG |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Luis Gonzalez | $7 million | 586 | 58 | 69 | .271 | .444 |
J.D. Drew | $14 million | 494 | 106 | 89 | .283 | .498 |
I think Ned Colletti made a smart move, effectively replacing J.D. Drew in the lineup and outfield with Luis Gonzalez. Despite Gonzo’s age, Drew’s at LEAST as much of an injury threat. Plus, their numbers are pretty similar, but the Dodgers only have to pay half the amount.
