Chipper had a very good 2007 season. He missed nearly a month of playing time, and still matched up to Mets star David Wright in Home runs (29/3o), Runs (108/113), and Doubles(42/42), RBI(102/107). Chipper was superior in average, obp, and Slug %. In fact he lead the entire NL in OPS. Chipper also had one of his best season's defensively (still about average). It was overall one of the best seasons of his career.
It looks that there is no indication of Chipper on a decline. The only hinder is the injuries he has suffered in the last four seasons. Last season, this was no pulled hammy or foot problems, but rather some "fluke injuries" that some call it. The collision with Pirates 3rd baseman Jose Bautista is the only real factor in his missed playing time. The question once again is...can Chipper play at least 150 games this season? We can only hope so. A full season with Tex behind him is no doubt going to draw some pretty good numbers.
