Or it could be because Clendenon's production had dropped off a lot. In 1967 he hit . 249/.298/.370 OPS+ 91. In 1968 he hit .257/.309/.399 OPS+ 114. The Pirates protected Al Oliver instead. Oliver would play 17 more years in the majors hitting .303 with 2742 hits and made 7 All Star teams. The Pirates clearly made the correct decision.
