Miller is my preferred SS going down the line. He pencils better there...and he's been no Dr. Strangeglove on defense. Doc, I remember reading that from James years ago. In general it is likley true. But some guys struggle against lefties, etc. There are exceptions, certainly, to James' "rule." I hope Miller shows he isn't always going to be one of those guys. He hasn't so far. Things could change mind you....I'm not anti-Marte, but a decent glove SS with some thump from the left side is a pretty nice thing.
And I will add this: Goodness knows that I've ridden Austin Jackson pretty hard the past sseason +. But Edgar has helped. I was (amazingly) to the point that I would have QO'ed him, even he if moved on. I'm hoping that the PTBNL in the deal hs been predetermined and we will get something decent in return. $200K in the International pool isn't much.
The weird thing about Miller in CF (and I'm a Miller fan) is that I imagine he won't look any better soon than Ackley did out there (I thought he was decent) and Lloyd (evidently) couldn't stand the thought of Ackley in CF. Weirdness, weirdness.
