Thought there might be some push back. If you look at the last ten seasons of use, 1982 Yount only hit .300 once and the other nine were between .240 and .273. Pretty average to have as a keeper with a B/B fielding. He is the 25th ranked SS for all 70 seasons with a .273 BA. Though he is ranked 11th for OPS for the same time period. In hindsight I probably should have looked at that. But normally if I get those type of batting averages I need an A+ range at shortstop.

Yount always underachieves for me in caps this high. I preferred Carlos Guillen, especially with a salary $2 million less.

Need 5 keepers. Send me your top 2 choices in case petroff selects your 1st. If petroff doesn't select by 8pm est,, I will make his pick for him. We will be drafting round 2 tomorrow.

Walker Buehler

I've always wondered about his performance. thank you for breaking that out / down. Guess I should have looked closer at the past history, but hopefully in between Gwynn & Caminiti, he can outperform the past - we did have quite a need at a quality SS, don't trust the Tatis factor.

You're killing me Jeff. I never expected to lose Carlos in round 1. Grrrrrr

Well, lucky for you, there is another shortstop that had a pretty decent season/career for the Tigers.

1982 Yount is a career .271/.317/.436 hitter in this theme fwiw

I sitemailed petroff. he works nights, so he may be sleeping right now.

Still need Yankee and Expo/Nats keepers

Solid, but certainly not a world beater. One of the reasons I decided to go with Nomar, despite middling defense.
