Cabrera is the next Vizquel.Frankly I think Cabrera should be at short now....and I'D sit Peralta......I really would ...at the very least when Carmona and Westbrooks are pitching.
Don't forget all of Here's Jhonny Boneheads base running blunders.
I mean how do you get picked off first with the bases loaded!!?

Wow...one example of a base running blunder. good. 11th in fielding percentage, 6th in range factor, 4th in assists, 2nd in put outs, 2nd in total chances, 6th in douuble plays, 14th in errors. I think it a matter of perception. He is ranked 21st in zone rating which backs up his "lack" of range, but that is a bit of a subjective number. His flat numbers are quite good defensively. In all honesty he is a quite competent, above average defensive shortstop.
So you would bench Peralta who had the best at bats of anyone on the team in post season and play Barfield?? You are a bit of a mystery.
