For the Todd Hollandsworth lovers saying he is the best thing since sliced bread.
He only batted .245 with 3 HR's and 13 RBI in 94 AB's as Sosa's replacement in RF.
As just a plain OFer his stats are little better, .257 with 4 HR's and 14 RBI.
This is what we are trying to get as many AB's as possible for?
Again Todd Hollandsworth is a mediocre OFer. When he started in the OF he blew chunks. His stats are being propped up on 14 AB's as a pinch hitter, which he is hitting .571, 9 AB's as a 1B, and 8 AB's as a DH.
Leave the man as a pinch hitter, that is obviously the place he is excelling at. Case in point, today's game against the Athletics. You have to admit Hollandsworth has been much more helpful to the Cubs coming off the bench in those 14 AB's than anything he did in the 105 as an OFer.
