There has been a lot of analysis regarding Ronnie Belliard currently playing over Orlando Hudson, but everyone is overlooking the obvious reasoning behind Hudson's benching. As of right now Orlando Hudson is making an extra $10,000 every plate appearance for the remainder of the season. With twelve games currently left it wouldn't be unreasonable for Hudson to make an extra $480,000 (12 games x 4 PA x $10,000) if he was re-inserted back into the starting lineup.
You're telling me Frank McCourt doesn't have a hand in this? Sure Belliard is playing better right now, but the only truck McCourt's backing up is the bribe train loaded with Bigelow Green Tea on it's way to Joe Torre's house.
