I am putting together an OL team with Fenway as the home park and need some input as which of these 4 to put in CF. They will bat 3rd. I am having a tough time deciding b/c of Lynn's A+ range in a +4 doubles park. My pitching will not be high strike out. Thanks

I wouldn't put any of those other guys in CF.

franco.. thx for the reply. So you believe Lynn's A+ range would stop more runs than the other 3 produce? Each of the others bring something unique IMO.. Holliday avg+, Berkman OBP and Belle's HR's. They all have nice SLG.

within the context of fenway as the home park of course

post their relevant #'s man.... I am to lazy to look all them up!

Well the thing is that if you put a guy with C range or worse out there in CF, he's going to put up 10 minus plays or whatever, so take the equivalent of that off of his hitting stats.

Lynn if you're looking for CF out of those 4. The best of the bunch fielding, will hit his doubles, problem is he'll fatigue

My gut says to go with Lynn. He is the best defensively (by alot) and he normalizes the best. If you don't mind playing him at 93ish fatigue you won't beed to sit him much (or at all).

I am intrigued by Belle though. I know 1998 was a big hitters year but those raw #'s are awesome. I would check his # numbers with the other guys. If they are much higher, I would think about rolling the dice and using him.

Well I would take any of these 4 guys over all your 4 and they are all cheaper

A++ ranger works better in Right or then Center.You will get a lot more plus plays in the corners.
