The Official bench Adam Everett thread
Adam Everett is a horrible hitter, plain and simple. He was swinging and missing at 86 MPH fastball yesterday. His defense is decent but not spectacular. He has made 3 errors this postseason. He is...

No, because they are not as bad as Everett in RISP!

AE had 26 walks and 103 K's in 549 ab's. He needs to find a hitting coach that can bring him around. His RISP average is never gonna be that good when almost 20% of your AB's end in walking back to...

I think in the long run we should really contemplate putting Burke at SS, at least until Biggio retires and/or Zobrist/Ash get to the Major League level. He played there in college and was a plus...

Burke played 2nd base in the minor leagues because the Astros do not believe he has the arm to be a major league shortstop. Early in the season when AE was hitting sub-.200 and the Burke to SS idea...

Burke and Viz aren't solutions. Viz might be a bandaid if we feel Everett is shell-shocked but his problems have been pretty permeanent offensively, so looking for a four game solution (four wins) is...

Bruntlett seems to excel as a pinch hitter mainly. Great bench player to have though.
View ArticleRe: The Official bench Adam Everett thread
That's my point though. We're stuck with what we got. Everett's situation should be reevaluated in the offseason though.

For the price AE is just fine. Why spend more money on an expensive shortstop that can hit but maybe not field worth a damn? You could use that money for bullpen and rotation help if needed. Pitching...

Too bad the DH can't bat for any player in the lineup - i.e. dh for Adam and let Oswalt, Backe hit - umm Mike Hampton comes to mind too. There were times I remember yelling at the TV saying let...

I think it does apply for only the pitcher. After that it gets a little confusing if you pinch hit for the dh. The way I get it (could definitely be wrong ) is that then the pitcher also has to bat? I...

ANOTHER F*CKING REASON TO TRADE OR BENCH THIS MOFO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!He can't get the hits in the key situations. Hell, he can't get the hits in ANY situation!

I think I would've pinch hit Backe for Everett in the final AB in Game 3. :)

Everett is a joke at the plate. Honestly, I never expect him to get a hit. I do not know how his regular season average is near .250.And his postseason performance truly is laughable. I actually...
