I put these numbers in the comments of my last Mike Cameron post, but I thought they were worth making sure everyone saw them. He had 1 good month in a Brewers uniform. That was August where he batted .360 with 9 home runs and 22 RBI's.
What did the other months look like? Brutal.
May - .212 7 HR, 17 RBI
June - .203 5 HR, 9 RBI
July - .250 3 HR, 14 RBI
September - .176 1 HR, 6 RBI, (34 K's)
Postseason - .154 0 HR, 0 RBI
That factors out to be .210 with 16 HRs and 46 RBIs. Oh, and 118 Ks. One every 2.94 ABs. And for the record, everyone's favorite target, Bill Hall, batted .225 with 15 HRs and 55 RBIs.
But at least he plays a good CF.

It doesn't matter how one breaks down the numbers. All that matters is the final outcome. Granted, he wasn't the best in clutch situations. Nor was he the best at/near the top of the order. But in the end, he still finished with 25 HRs (3rd in Milw).
Those stats that you posted were an eye-opener though.
I think the point is the Brewers don't need a guy whose best attribute is that he hits 25 home runs. They need a guy who moves 25 runners over to third when they're on second with no outs. Or a guy who works the count and takes 25 more walks.
Don't you think they could find someone to put up very similar numbers for less than $10 mil per year?
I like the idea of swinging a trade with the Royals for David DeJesus. I think he would look good as a Brewer
