ESTONES6 Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Can someone explain to me why Sizemore was given his lead off position and CF back over Brantley? Fielding: Sizemore has average range after the injuries and 3 hops a throw from Center Field to Second Base. Brantley can throw a rope from deep in alleys into Second Base and he can cover just as much, if not more, ground as Sizemore. Advantage: BrantleyRunning: Brantley lead the team to a 10-4 record. He actually USES his speed to steal bases, advance on throws in the dirt, and is smart on the bases. Sizemore rarely steals for being considered a speedster on the bases, does NOT advance on bad pitches, and plays it safe on the bases. Advantage: BrantleyBatting: Brantley has a .300+ BA with a sliver under .400 OBP. He does NOT hit for power, but goes deep into counts, and is HUGE in the clutch. Sizemore is about consistent at .260+/- BA with about a .350 OBP. He hits for power, but also hits a lot of air... pencil him in for 145+ Ks. He does NOT produce with runners runners on base, any less with them in scoring position. Advantage: washHere is my contention: Keep Brantley batting 1 in Center Field and move Sizemore to Left batting 6 or 7. As a CF, you want a high OBP, fast, smart base runner. That's Brantley. His arm can make the necessary throws from deep in the alley and can cover a lot of ground. Sizemore has a terrible arm and lost some speed after the surgeries. Not only that, LF is considered a power position, so his 25+ HRs and 140+ Ks would fit in perfectly. Not only that, batting behind Hafner would give better protection and Orlando Cabrera. Sure is lefty then lefty but force teams to beat you at your own game. Even if Hafner, Santana, and Choo clear the bases ahead of Grady, it will be like turning the lineup over with Cabrera and LaPorta to follow. And since Santana and Hafner are supposed to be high BA hitters, Sizemore can also clean up with men LOB. Something he can't do hitting lead off.

Grady's been back for what, about three games now? How about you give it two weeks before you go all "Cleveland fan" on us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee.
