Barrett is bordering on being completely useless at this point. I think his offenseive numbers are decent at home, but he's Neifi-esque on the road...combine that with his typical bad to worse dfense and he's making Blanco look like a MUCH better option at this point. he chokes pretty regularly defensively late in the game, but he'd have to play with no mitt to make blanco look like a better option period, let alone a MUCH better option. and, as i'm sure others have said...it's ridiculous to ask him to bunt right there. It's not just the bunt...he can't do anything at the plate if they're not at home. How long is this "slump" going to keep going? What good is Barrett really for this team if he can't hit anything like he did before?
