Me, I say no way. Still a very talented C, but not top 3 and not a .900 OPS guy.
.331/.393/.606 through 40+ games, so you're right he's not a .900 OPS guy but a 1000 OPS guy. Also, he has more BB than K's.

Well the argument was that VMart was the better player going into this past off-season because he had been more consistent then McCann - meaning if a GM had to take one going into 2008 then they'd probably have taken V-Mart. At no point was I arguing McCann wasn't a talented player, I was arguing that V-Mart was more consistent - which was rather true at the time...I think that still remains a pretty logical argument for time and place.

And I'd say Cliff Lee still looks PFG at this point...but I never said he'd be Sandy Koufax.

Looks like the GMs that would have taken McCann over V-Mart are the smart ones...
