I've got to go (if not playing regularly). I need to go ... My mentality is I don't like to sit. I'll take a day off every once in a while but I don't like to sit. That's how I'm made.
I can understand wanting to play, I mean everyone does. But there's got to be a certain point where a player has to realize he's a platoon player, right? Jenkins was almost the definition of average last year with his .271/.357/.434 line in 55 PAs for the Brewers last year. His OPS+ (definition of OPS+ for the non-sabermetrically inclined can be found here) was 102 when 100 is an average player. At 32 it seems unlikely Jenkins will be getting much better. On top of it all, he couldn't hit a left-handed pitcher if his life depended on it last year.
Where does he think he can be traded to that he'd be an every day player? The anemic Pirates were an oft-mentioned potential home for Jenkins in the off-season and even they would probably platoon Jenkins with Xavier Nady. I guess if I was making $7 million a year I'd have an inflated sense of self worth, too.
