Message: [QUOTE="The Viking, post: 2286164, member: 1599"] The issue Zyron is not that he's been an average hitter his whole career. That doesn't really tell the value of the pickup. The Sox offense has been at best average and depending on what statistic you look up, below average. So a versatile average hitter - if that's all he is - still has a way to be impactful. The fact that he's been one of the hotter hitters in baseball since June 1st is exactly what the Sox needed. We don't have the prospects to get a stud hitter which is why DD did a very good job getting this guy, especially for what he gave up. And honestly this guys swing is perfect for Fenway. I'm sure it didn't take 10 scouts to tell DD that before trading for him. [/QUOTE]
