Since you all know me, it is understood that I hate Brandon Inge. I probably wouldn't hate him so much if everyone else in the world didn't love him. He is the definition of a mediocre player and was often the subject of heated arguments in 807. The constant defending of Inge, along with Ryan's absurd hatred for Magglio has prompted a bet: If Brandon Inge hits higher than .280, then Wei will buy Ryan a plane ticket to Dallas, while Wei gets a free trip to Minneapolis when Inge hits below.
Brandon Inge update: (as of 5/12) .280
You can argue all day if .300 defines a great hitter or not, but for a guy whose career average is .238 and draws a walk for every three K's, there should be no discussion. One season above .261 and four seasons below .206? This guy was only valuable when he was a catcher. While he does make the occassional spectacular play in the field, he is still good for around 20 errors over at third.
