The issue is his conditioning and defense. From what I've read (and this is a guy that particularly interests me because of his power projections), how playable he looks at any position not named 1B long-term is what fluctuates his ranking the most. IF he reaches his ceiling, the bat plays everywhere, but he'd be much more valuable at 3B (or even LF) than at 1B or DH.
I'd play him pretty much every day. He's been taking a lot more advantage of his speed, which will allow him to get on base sometimes even if he's overmatched.
Duran should play pretty much every day, that is very much a fact, but Cora is in an impossible situation. If he doesn't play him, people will whine, and if he does and he's an auto-out against lefties, people will also whine.
Zanetello was not even in my radar. Like Teel, I didn't think he'd make it to the Red Sox, as he was projected as even a possible reach in the 1st round for teams looking for projectable athletes.
No. Because your constantly misinterpret other posters' points and positions, and you're the worse kind of hypocrite, whining about others trying to supress your opinoons, when you very much do the same thing. Many others here posit opinions contrary to the prevailing notions of the board, but aren't as annoyingly confrontational as you.
