Can someone pull up some defensive stats to compare Bourjos in his prime to Bader right now?
Using Fangraph’s UZR 150 number, it’s not terribly close.
Bourjos in CF for his career is an 11.9 (he didn’t really have a prime, his number bounced around a lot).
Bader in CF so far is an 18.8 (he’s actually been around a 21 in the last two years that he’s been our primary CF).
Bader is elite.
