Neyer suggests sabermetrics turned Dustin Ackley into Daric Barton

And got him sent down to AAA.

Actually, he's mocking the idea. But either way, as an As fan who has seen Barton (and Cust) come and go it's interesting to see a discussion about being detrimentally picky at the plate while still looking good on SABR statistics arise around a player who isn't an Oakland Athletic for once.
