The .356 OBP Dickerson has put up over his small sample is better than we can probably expect from Gomez. Much, much better with slightly worse defense.Yeah but .222 and .250 over the past two years? Again, small sample size in terms of PAs, but the inflated OBP is based on what he did 3 and 4 years ago. If he were still 24 or 25, I would have more hope he was capable of bouncing back to that - but he's not. I still don't get it. I get the "meh" but not the hate for this trade. You're misreading his stat line. In 2009 (2 years ago), he had a .370 OBP in 299 major league plate appearances. In 2010, he had a combined OBP of .250 - .222 with the Reds, and .271 with the Brewers - in an injury-plagued season.
