I don't think that anyone has ever accused Nate Schierholtz of being a savior. However, if he can hit around his .826 OPS vs. RHP and Hairston his .867 vs. LHP, that would equal one very nice bat for just under 5MM, and even if not, at the price, it's certainly worth it. It's tongue in cheek. A lot of people have very high expectations for him, and the platoon but not a savior. However if he doesn't turn out, they will distance themselves from those expectations AND there is no doubt that some will bring up Colvin... Concerning Shierholtz I would very much like examples of who expects more than "meh"
