By the way, Crawford had a terrible year in 2008 -- an 89 OPS+ in which his OBP had dropped from .355 to .319, his SLG from .466 to .400, his doubles from 37 to 12.
This had been Crawford's roto$ line for 2004-08:
$31
$32
$33
$31
$17
..................
Faced with this problem, Shandler didn't hesitate: he advised his readers to pay $30 again for Crawford in 2009.
The basis: underlying skills all remained stable except for PX, which was traceable to the finger injuries.
Crawford could easily be part of the blurb on the cover of Forecaster 010.
