Switzer is the most frustrating player to watch, taking ball after ball, only to strike out at crucial times. Always looks for perfect pitch to drive out. He'd rather take a walk than get a single with men on base 'cause he only wants Dingers. Very selfish player with the look-at-me-haircuts...

I know you were being I facetious, but still, I'm not sure there'd even bed a starting job for him in Cleveland.

You don't need to be a great defender to play right field in Yankee stadium. You cannot be too disappointed with 29 HRs and 84 RBI. Yes he strikes out a lot, but hitting down in the lineup isn't as bad if you plugged him into the 2 or 3 hole.

Actually, he probably would.
