Look, I like Theriot and feel that he has a role on this team.

I also understand that some people here disagree as to what that role is.

So my advice to you is to not get into a debate over Ryan Theriot – it has been discussed ad nauseum, and the best thing to do is agree to disagree.

1. He’s not “our shortstop”. We don’t write the checks, his contract isn’t with the fans, he doesn’t work for us.
2. He is ONE shortstop on the team. We have at least two, maybe three (if you count DeRosa), and that’s just on the 25 man roster, not including the minors.
3. He does not need “defense”. He needs to PLAY better defense, but he doesn’t need defending.
