June 26, 200422 yr Author If we're going to move Choi up I'd say let him leadoff or bat 2nd.behind Pierre. He runs well enough for it to work. Not that that matters because we don't run any more. I was thinking the same but that hasnt really been our issue, it has been more about driving runs in and lacking a 3rd hitter because Cabrera is not the man for the job
June 26, 200422 yr Cabrera is being put into a role he is not ready for yet..The guy turned 21 a few months ago...His numbers for a player his age (or for any player right now) are very good, but he has not played at the big level enough to be comfortable as a 3 hole hitter...I have no doubt in a few years he will be more than ready to take on the 3 or 4 hole slot, but right now I think he needs to bat 5th or 6th to take the pressure off of himself...He is young and he is pressing at the plate...
