Why Do Players Always Get Better After Leaving Seattle?

Brad Wilkerson, Texas 2007: 101 wOBA+, .786 OPS, 2.49 K per BB, 4.26 P/PA
Brad Wilkerson, Seattle 2008: 89 wOBA+, .652 OPS, 1.50 K per BB, 4.37 P/PA
Brad Wilkerson, Toronto 2008: 79 wOBA+, .621 OPS, 2.08 K per BB, 4.25 P/PA

You know why? Because people don't talk about players that suck very often.

When I was in Toronto,

there were idiots yelling at Ichiro that Wilkerson was just as good as he was for no money, despite me pulling up these same stats and showing them.
