I hear you. There's a certain player in STL with a little "skip" in his step that is becoming too expensive.

Theriot's problem is that a mediocre OBP doesn't really cut it when you do nothing but hit singles, (171 hits, 222 total bases) and run poorly. People put up with mediocrity when it is cheap. Once he started expecting to be paid more, everyone felt the money could be used better elsewhere.

Were it not for Theriot's .872 ASR, he wouldn't be worth much at all, would he?
