I know, but there are times when you need to put the ball in play and wilkerson cant do that on a consistent basis. OBP can be overrated and has become so. IE a guy with a 320 avg and a 400 obp is better than a guy with a 250 avg and a 410 obp. Walks are not always as good as a hit. They are never a negative but they arent always the positive that a hit is.
