Everyone I know loves to tell me about how overrated Dion Phaneuf is. Now when it's a hot girl sure I go with it but when a guy who owns a Mike Kostka jersey and asks you if you've ever even played the game when he plays house league hockey that's another thing
Did he just extrapolate a whole 121 PA sample
And no you don't get nearly the same, you'd get about ~1.9 when you extrapolate him to 600 PA and that's nearly a full win less, which doesn't matter cause you don't extrapolate 121 PA samples
That could be a 5 win swing right there (~-2 to ~3).
2011 - .322 BABIP, 13.4 Defense
2012 - .298 BABIP, 10.8 Defense
2013 - .281 BABIP, 10.9 Defense
2012 seems like a reasonable expectation.
Also LOL @ falling like harlem comet
His BABIP is down about 20 points. He has an adequate-very good bat for a 2B and a really good glove. His contract is reasonable. He's averaged ~2.9 fWAR/600 PA over his career.
Random hypothetical time; If I were negotiating this I would try and only include one of Hutch/Sanchez/Stroman and replace one with another piece but if all else failed I'd probably do it.
