You dont have to have a big stick in the corner OF positions. The White Sox did win the world series with Scott Podsednik in LF. If you dont have enough stick in the corner OF then you have to make up for it at positions like 2B, SS or C. The Mets prior to falling apart in 2001 were pretty good with out massive sticks(They had guys like Benny Agbanyni in the OF) in the OF because they got huge production out of the catcher position.
