Sam Fuld is not a perfect player. He's batting .193 on the season, not far from his .228 career average, and he doesn't hit for any semblance of power to make up for that low mark. He's quick, but he's never stolen more than 21 bases. He can be breathtaking on defense, but only in left field is he truly excellent. If you asked 10 A's fans right now, eight of them would probably want to release him on the spot. He's a role player, a left fielder who hits like a backup center fielder, and if he's starting half of your team's games then that probably means something else went wrong along the way.
