This would be like saying Jiri Hudler should be traded because he has a giant melon.
No it isn't. In broadcasting, delivery is an essential part of the job. That's no different in TV than it is in radio. And it's one of the reasons why Cassie Campbell (to mention another person with weak delivery) is not a good broadcaster. It's also one of the reasons why top-notch broadcasting team, like Phil Legget and Paul Sherman of Tour de France fame, or the legendary English football caller John Motson, can have a dramatic impact on the experience of the audience.
