Unless he starts to hit, his defense won't make up for his lack of offense. Right now, he is slightly more valuable than VW. The Angels can't afford another 220 hitting OF
I think Kole Calhoun has more promise of being a complete baseball player than PB does.
He will get his chance to surprise us..me..but PB becoming an offensive threat seems pretty unlikely.
There have been lots of flashy outfielders who had decent rookie seasons, that were out of baseball 3 or 4 seasons later, and PB looks like he could easily be one of those, to me.
I think Angel's fans over-rate the guy. He has been on the trading block for quite a while, so decision makers around baseball obviously feel the same way. He is going to get a chance to prove the naysayers wrong, but I for one will not be shocked if he is hitting 230-240 come mid June. And that just aint gonna cut it.
