Would you do Patterson for Wells?

[ThePenguin11]

Patterson has slow reaction skills and although he's not a bad fielder, his speed gets him out of an awful lot of trouble.

 

how is this any different from perennial gold glove winner jim edmonds? he just fakes slow reaction skills so he can dive - if he can win a gold glove like that, why can't patterson?

 

Edmonds makes the plays. Corey doesn't get to every play because he's too slow in reacting. At least Edmonds still makes all of the catches.

 

corey still makes plenty of plays. you're underrating him.

 

Is that even possible?

That deal sounds like a fair one. Oh, I'm sorry, I thought this was about Corey for DAVID Wells. My bad...

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Maybe this suggestion deserves a different thread...but while looking Wells, I took a look at Frank Catalanatto's numbers...I think he'd look great in left field for the rest of the year...

 

Agreed.

Isn't Catalanotto basically a LH Hairston?
