The stats are fairly comparable...

And Giambi performed no where near even those stats during the last month of the season through the playoffs...

Earlier in the year he had eye problems; he was hit a couple of times on the hand; then finally he supposedly couldn't push off his knee and attack the ball. This coming year will say a lot about Giambi.

Sexton? The guy had a statistically great year. Don't know how he'll perform in the clutch. Quite frankly, I think he'll have only slightly less snooze time at AZ, where I can't see his new team going any further than the Brewers would have.

Sexson isn't the second coming of anyone. All he has to do is drive in 100+ a season and he will be 20x better than the dead wood we got rid of.

The Brewers think, wow...we got all these players. The DBacks were GRATEFUL somebody accepted them. I would have helped pack Counsel's bags if I got a phone call.

Personally, I think it's only a matter of time before somebody finds the holes in Sexton's strike zone. Somebody that big has too much plate to protect. I expect he'll be a high-strikeout hitter all his career.
