Should Manny DH more? 

Post#1 » by BS007 » Tue Apr 24, 2007 1:45 am

In a big outfield, Manny sucks, because he is slow and has no idea what he is doing out there. He plays left field in Fenway so well because its a small Outfield and he knows if the ball gets by him he doesn't have very far to run... my god manny is so slow.

Would I rather have Manny DH than be in field? Yes. Can the Sox afford to have Manny as the DH, no. If Manny moves to DH, Ortiz moves to first, and which is the bigger risk, Manny in Left, or Ortiz at first? Manny being the DH means that Youkilis will have to move to Left field, i guess Youk would be decent out there.

My solution: If it has to come to it, Manny will continue to play Left field during games at Fenway. When on the road, Manny will be the DH, and Ortiz will play first, and Youk will be moved to Left Field.
