Friday Night Fukudome: Brian Roberts vs. Chone Figgins

Friday Night Fukudome

Someone on Desipio pointed out that, while Brian Roberts would be an excellent addition to the Cubs, so would the Anaheim Angels’ Chone Figgins. While Roberts put up a .290/.377/.432 line last year exclusively as a second baseman while swiping 50 bases, Figgins was hitting .330/.393/.432 and stealing 41 as a third baseman, right fielder, and second baseman. Oh, and Figgins has played 244 career games in center field, more than at any other position but third base. Figgins seems to have been available all year. Is he the better option?
