I must admit I am slightly worried about Xavier Nady. Almost every Yankees fan has written him in for, at worst, the number 6 spot in the batting line-up. They look at his .330 BA and his .383 OBP and .535 SLG from the first half of the year and ignore both his statistics while with the Yankees (.268/.320/.474) and his career stats (.280/.335/.458) in 7 big league seasons. I think it is foolish to assume his numbers simply replace Abreu in the outfield. I do want Abreu gone, but not if the organization thinks Nady can replace his numbers. Ideally, Nady should be the second worst hitter on the team (behind whoever is in center), but I don't think Yankees or their fans view him so low on the pecking order. Is anyone else concerned the Nady isn't really a good player? Maybe I am just being pessimistic, but I don't expect big things from the X-Factor this year.
