I'm still thinking Stubbs can be great, he just needs more time. I know we keep saying this about a lot of people on the team, but he's only been here for a year. People are still saying that about Bailey, but if it were up to me, his time would have been up last year or before. Maybe he could benefit from a new team.
Maybe go back and undo that trade that sent Hamilton packing for Volquez.

Stubbs likely won't ever be great. He has had more than enough time to adapt to the big show and still can't seem to not strikeout at least once a game. He is like Adam Dunn minus the power. The problem is they are all annointed before they get here and fans are expecting greatness, and homers like Dan can't stop thinking they are great, despite the results saying otherwise. Heck most fans even liked the Hamilton trade because we had Stubbs, how'd that one work out?
