Face Off
OK, here's today's discussion question: Who would you rather have this season, Chipper Jones or David Wright? Looking at the positional battles between the Braves and Mets (and recognizing that it's sort of a silly exercise -- it's not like they're going mano a mano), this looks to be the most intriguing.
On the one hand, you've got a guy who is a former MVP and who, when he's not injured, is still the more productive. On the other, a young stud who may very well be a future MVP, and whose improvement has been rapid and uninterrupted. So who ya got?

I'll be contrary and say Wright, based on this:
153, 137, 109
That's Chipper's games played over the last three years. I think he will post better rate stats (BA OBP SLG) than Wright, but he's also a guy who can miss several weeks just from falling at (sorry, diving for) a groundball.
