I'm thinking Jim Hendry should be looking to trade Corey Patterson. He hasn't been providing us with ANYTHING since his knee surgery two years ago. This last homestead highlights all of his weaknesses: no hitting, getting hit in the head by the ball in play, not calling a pop up and almost colliding with Macias while letting the ball drop. He's a lazy player; he's one of the many guys that don't run out first base. That's baseball 101; you always run past first. They see the ball they hit, figure they're out, and half-ass it. In many instances, they might actually be safe. That's one reason why I liked Kenny Lofton and like Hollandsworth so much. They play like they're supposed to.
Corey does nothing. Get rid of him. He is not just maintaining a status quo, he is actively detracting from our roster. Enough is enough.
