I need a hit man. With steals, what you see is what you get. 35 steals by any other name are still 35. All batting averages, however, are not made equal. So while both players hit the same, Randa was available to be driven in a lot more.
Owners also fall prey to avoiding good players because of unflattering averages.
I need a winner. More so than any other category in fantasy baseball, this one is given far too much credit and way too much time. No way can you accurately project who will carry your team here. With pitch counts and imploding bullpens the rage, wins are too elusive to track down. Just ask Chris Holt.
