In response to being demoted to a platoon role, Jeff Francoeur is whining about his playing time and asking to be traded to a team that will play him every day.
Francoeur needs to get realistic.
Out of 27 regular RFs, Jeff Francoeur ranks dead last in OPS, wOBA, EqA, or any other measure of offensive value.
In 2009, he ranked 23rd out of 25 regular RFs.
And in 2008, he ranked last among 22 regular RFs.
Simply put, Jeff Francoeur has been the worst right fielder in baseball for the last 3 seasons by a healthy margin. Instead of complaining about playing time, he should be thanking his lucky stars (or incompetent Mets management) for getting as much playing time as he has.

Succinctly put. And what a picture!
Best headline ever?
Shea Hizzay is on some kind of streak with its headlines.
Ha ha. I love it. I think Frenchy's letting all this media love go to his head. He's beginning to deify himself.
