I have been reading a lot of articles on the web that are wondering if Peter Bourjos is going to be able to cut it as a everyday player?
However, two seasons ago when the Angels needed a outfielder and someone to score runs, the Angels counted on Peter to fill some of that void. In 147 games he had 502 AB with 72 runs scored, 12HRs, 43RBIs, .274 BA and a .327OPS, and this was without Albert and Josh in the lineup. I feel like Peter will be able to come close to what he did in 2011 with a strong lineup. Peter defence will always be there and his speed will be a extra. I understand that last season he did not do good but keep in mind he was always wondering if he was going to play or not. He was always under a microscope and a player is not able to be themselves if they are always looking over their shoulder.
So overall I do have faith that Peter will be a very good job as a everyday player. He will not be required to be another Mike Trout or anything near but he will be a very good spark on the bottom of the lineup.
