That being .365/.440/.600, he's going to get about $100-150M this offseason, rather than $3M.
Believe me, if Kotchman turns out to be Joe Mauer, I'll be delighted to write an engraved apology and enjoy every one of his MVP trophies from here to the end of his career.

Hey, don't let me dissuade you amigos from rooting for the guy. Zduriencik seems to be part of the contingent that believes that Kotchman has considerable untapped production. Hope you all are right.
As to whether he's shown anything, so far, in his BABIP splits and live swings to revise my prediction of him, the answer is no. If that occurs we will definitely say so. But will root for him to sustain his 0% popup rate from here to the end of the decade along with everybody else :- )

Good post Mal! Keep it comin'...
