And Colborne would counter with:
1) Points are worth more than hits.
2) Colborne had more points in his contract year:
17, 18, 35 in 67 games (and still counting)
16, 18, 34 in 78 games
3) Colborne has more career games, more points, and a higher PPG:
36, 61, 97 in 227 games .427 PPG
22, 31, 53 in 199 games .266 PPG
Pretty easy case that he should get more, not less
