I like to try to do the same thing with closers as the year goes on. In additon, he should bat in the .290s and score close to 100 runs. I have enough power at other posiotns to make up for the lack of HRs and RBIs.

Pierre is going to be splitting time in the OF in LA with the addition of Andruw Jones. Pierre is going to platoon with Kemp and Either, so cut his runs and steals totals by 30-50% for the year. He'll also be coming off the bench usually as a pinch hitter/defensive replacement, so it will be hard to tell when to start him. He only contributes to these two categories, so your (and mine) RBI and HR categories will suffer to give him a slot.
