Is not a typical Senior starter experience wise. He bounced back and forth from Offense to Defense. He played hard and admirably but was basically a utility player...
I made my first visit to New Orleans this past weekend. My brother and I might have been those two other people. Great city, fun bar and they served Brooklyn Lager!
Look at Granderson's lifetime LH v RH Pitcher splits and tell me he isn't a flawed established major leaguer.
It's not fair to call a 22 year old major league rookie starting centerfielding leadoff hitter an out machine after one month. i would think you (one obviously versed in sabremetrics) would have some trust in MLE's especially since AJax spent entire seasons in AA and AAA. The kid has some skills. He is not another roger cedeno or wendell magee...
We know what Granderson can do, It's fair to say there isn't much more upside. (At Best a few more HR's at the expense of 2B's, 3B's and SB's) Like ChiTown said earlier, Granderson was 25/26 his rookie year in the league. AJax is 22, leaving much more room for growth. Also, Granderson had nearly 170 K's his rookie year. Austin played full seasons in AA and AAA and has shown he can hit, hopefully his eye will improve.
I loved Granderson during his time with the Tigers. That being said, he still can't hit LH Pitching. Jackson is an exciting young player and it never hurts to get younger.
whoever negged me on this is a fucking moron. This is not political. If you have ever been to Ben's chili bowl it says this on the wall, right under Bill Cosby is an honorary customer. Nobody will read this rebuttal but I was compelled to respond!
I bet you 7300 MgoPoints that Sizemore has a much better batting avergage than Inge at the end of the year. If Sizemore has anything going for him it is a good eye and approach at the plate. Inge K's and fails to make contact way more than his fair share.
It upsets me but, Alan Trammell has had little luck with HOF voters and I think Barry Larkin will have similar issues. Derek Jeter won't have this problem...

I watched the playoffs and it looked like Lebron quit to me.
in this case, it seems it is the younger folks with more patience. The people who grew up with black and white tv's need to relax...
