re: Cubs trade for Astros' Dexter Fowler

Just pointing out that Fowlers limited ABs had nothing to do with his high OBP, because it was right around his career average

I got ya. Miscommunication between us. I wasn't suggesting Fowlers high OBP was because of limited ABs either. I could have worded that better if that's how it reads. He is that good at the plate, no question about that. I was trying to point out that, regardless of how high it is, his team will only get 450 ABs out of him which dampens his value when compared to someone who will be able to play everyday.
