Billy Beane could have kept Giambi. He didn't. He could have kept Miggy. He didn't. He kept Chavez.
I hate Canseco but he was right about Palmiero and Giambi eh?

well, remember, he had something like 48 less at bats with RISP. that should provide less RBI's. remember, he did have 50 doubles to go with his HR's (though the HR's dropped by 8). so its not like his power just went away. it takes a good deal of power to hit for that many homers. He had 81 extra base hits, which is impressive enough. and its not like his average dropped much. 7 points is hardly a drop.
dude is turning into a mini Ripken since he hasnt missed a game since like 1999 or something like that.
