Matt Holliday is paid to be the best LF in baseball, not a guy whose absence saves us multiple runs per game.

THIS. Good God, the highest paid player on your team shouldn't have to be moved down in the batting order during the playoffs to inspire him to actually get a hit occasionally. He should also be able to catch routine fly balls - that would be a plus.
This should be a happy time for us, and I have no intention in getting into a protracted debate over Matt ****ing Holliday with a bunch of ballwashing homer stats geeks. I know we're stuck with him, so it's a moot point anyway. But that doesn't mean I have to like it, and I won't.
