Where the hell do you see I'm back peddling? His numbers are creeping down, he's not hitting for power anymore, and by the end of the year his average will be pretty pedestrian and no where near all-star level. Average offence numbers will not be enough to turn a blind eye to his horrendous defence.
I'd be happier than a pig in #### if he kept hitting the ball at the clip he was and be more than happy to admit I was wrong, but that is not going to happen.
Here's Michael Saunders stats over the past 15 games.
Batting average - .213
Homeruns - 0
RBIs - 6.
Those are the facts. You can look them up for yourself on MLB.com
