Gerardo Parra is blowing his big chance with the Arizona Diamondbacks
The D-Backs traded Conor Jackson to give 23-year old lefty swinging outfielder Gerardo Parra the starting LF job. He has not done much at all with it though. Parra has played in 102 games for the D-Backs so far this year and he is 66 of 272 (.243 avg, .642 OPS) with 24 runs scored, 3 homers and 24 RBIs. He needs to have a strong finish to the season or he will be back to coming off the bench in 2011.
