Here are his comments on Davis from a chat a few weeks ago : I haven’t seen anything to suggest that my assessment of him as a guy who is okay-at-everything-and-great-at-nothing is wrong. He walks some, hits for some power, strikes out some, and plays okay defense. That’s Lyle Overbay.
Yup Ike plays okay defense except fangraphs own stats suggest Ike was a top defender at his position. Watching Ike everyday as we do tell us he’s a lot better than okay on defense. Jonah’s article is very solid. I think Ike is gonna be a very good player for a long time. I could see him going from a 3+ was player last year to a 4.5-5 war player this year.
