Number Breakdown: Curtis Granderson VS Cubs OF

There have been a lot of rumors going around about a possible Curtis Granderson to the Cubs deal. Let's take a look at Granderson's 2009 numbers in comparison to Kosuke's, Bradley's, and Soriano's.

Batting Average
Kosuke- .259
Soriano- .241
Bradley- .257
Granderson- .249

OBP
Kosuke- .375
Soriano- .303
Bradley- .378
Granderson- .327

HR
Kosuke- 11
Soriano- 20
Bradley- 12
Granderson- 30

RBIs
Kosuke- 54
Soriano- 55
Bradly- 12
Granderson- 71

Fielding %
Kosuke-.994
Soriano- .950
Bradley- .985
Granderson- .993

SB

So Curtis will bring speed and power, but he's not a great on base guy. He had a lower batting average and OBP then Bradley in 2009. Do you really want to give up top prospects for this guy?

Remember, the numbers don't lie!
