Red Sox with a Steal
« on: March 24, 2006, 02:14:30 PM »
Red Sox claim Hee Seop Choi off waivers.  Buh bye JT Snow, Choi will easily start over you.  Choi will have a really productive season

Nice although I don't think Choi is ever going to be a really good major league player.

He's been productive with limited playing time, i dont see why he cant just continue to get better and now this is the first time he's going to be in a hitters park too

From Bronx Banter Blog


Quote
After the game, the Red Sox claimed ex-Dodger Hee Seop Choi--whose availability has been an inevitability ever since the Dodgers signed Nomar Garciaparra to play first base, if not since the firing of Paul DePodesta--off waivers. Choi is a twenty-seven-year-old lefty-hitting first baseman with a severe platoon split who has yet to live up to his potential. Three years ago, the Twins released another twenty-seven-year-old lefty-hitting first baseman with a severe platoon split who had never lived up to his potential. That player signed with the Red Sox and proceeded to be one of the ten most productive players in the game over the following three years. His name is David Ortiz. Here's a comparison of the two players' careers prior to signing with Boston:

David Ortiz: .266/.348/.461, .524 OWP, 1693 PA
Hee Seop Choi: .240/.349/.437, .531 OWP, 1086 PA


Indeed, the age-27 player Choi is most similar to according to PECOTA is none other than Big Papi himself.
