Understatement of the year.
If being an OK hitter is being one of the best hitters in the league....then - ok. lol.
Manny might be a lazy azz in the field - but his bat is sorely needed now that Nomar is gone. Even though Nomar hadn't really produced, we had one of the best 3-4-5 combo in the majors (aside from St. Louis' Albert Pujols, Scott Rolen and Jim Edmonds).
And Cabrera is a good replacement - but a downgrade at the plate - definate upgrade on the field - and who knows in the clubhouse. It should be exciting to see him and Pokey (if he ever friggin comes back) turn some doubleplays together!
