Lyle Overbay, born January 28, 1977.
AB OBP SLG
2003 (Arizona): 254 .365 .402 (119 .419 .479 in AAA Tucson)
2004 (Milwaukee): 579 .385 .478
2005 (Milwaukee): 537 .367 .449
Career: 1382 .373 .450I expect that the votes on this one are going to be quite concentrated. Overbay will be 29 in a few weeks, has been consistent, and plays a position where injury is a less common occurrence. I suppose there is a question about a league adjustment, in light of the relative strength of the pitching in the AL and the NL.
Judging by the voting thus far, I guess most people don't expect Hillenbrand to get any starts at first base.
I don't think JP got him so sit very often. His splits are not too bad so coupled with his defense I'd think he would get 140-150 starts at first.
May I suggest that we change the "at-bats" part of predictions to "plate appearences"? I know it doesnt make that much of a difference but with equal PAs a player like Shea would have more ABs then L'Overbay.
