Yeah, he did a GREAT job with Corey Patterson, who in six years with the Cubs, managed a lifetime OBP of ... wait for it ...

.293

But, Dusty being Dusty, he made it all good by hitting him in the leadoff spot.

I looked at how Corey is doing with Baltimore..... all the way up to .311 OBP.

Then I saw his salary. $2,600,000.00 for this year. Jeezus.
