i don't disagree with anything you just said. frankly, if they were going to upgrade either position, i'd hope it would be catcher....because ausmus probably won't be around much longer anyway. i see 3 guys in the lineup who are there because of defense: willy, adam and brad. of those 3, i think adam is the most important. partially, because you wouldn't be asking him to bat leadoff like you would with willy, anyway. and partially because i just think he's THAT good at SS.
