What About Angel Berroa

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Angel Berroa is having a nice spring for the Yankees. Today, he collected his eighth double. According to rotoworld, the Yankees will pick Ramiro Pena as the utility player and have Cody Ransom fill in for Arod. If that's the case, Berroa would be expendable.

 

Berroa would definitely fill a need for the Cubs. First of all, he's probably a better defensive SS than anyone currently on our roster or in the high minors.

 

Now, granted, he is now on the wrong side of 30, hasn't had a good season in awhile, and even in his good seasons, he has a piss poor OBP.

 

On the other hand, if we're going to have a player who's a little speedy, but otherwise useless, I'd rather have Berroa on the 25-man roster instead of Gathright.

Aside from his ROY year, hes essentially the same guy as Esteban German, whose essentially the same guy as Neifi Perez.

We already have German, if we weren't gonna try Gathright to start the season German would have made the team. So I don't see us taking a flyer on anyone else.

He slugged .310 last year.

So right in between Khalil Greene and JR Towles then

The only difference is Berroa is a much better SS defender than German is, but I'm still not that interested in Angel.

[Coach C]

He's basically a younger version of Neifi Perez with a better defensive abilities, but still can't hit for *Bleep*, just like Neifi.

 

You'd be better off finding someone else.
