Adrian Gonzalez needs to be shipped the fuck out. I know I will get some shit for this since he has been our most consistent hitter and what seems to be our best position player, but the guy is a virus and has zero leadership. He is a proven loser and every where he is, the teams either under perform or cannot get over the hump. Trade him in the off-season as he has very high value and he will return some very good specs to us in return. Finding a power hitting 1B is not too hard to do, especially with deep pockets. Hell, maybe even give SVS a full time shot there.....I know the defense will suffer, but I want him off this team. Adrian never seems to inspire anything, is flat, emotionless and has never seemed to rally our team. He should be the unquestioned leader of this team and we get zero from him. Hell, Utley and Rollins feel more like leaders and they have been here for a month and a year, respectively. Adrian, we lose tonight and it's on you. I want him gone.
