Sizemore. It's not that close.

[/ QUOTE ]

agree. It's all about position and CF is way way more valuable than 3B.

To the guy who said Wright may be the most overrated player in baseball: wha?? Dude is incredible.

No but Adam Dunn is.

[/ QUOTE ]

I was just curious why he brought up Adam Dunn.

[/ QUOTE ]

Because he is the type of player that has a skillset that declines rapidly,

[/ QUOTE ]

For sure. To explain further: basically, old player skills are patience and power, young player skills are speed and contact. That's why young guys like Sizemore and Wright (who already have old player skills, and who will likely develop additional power and selectivity) are hugersons.

So doesn't it stand to reason that the player with better power and selectivity will age better? No one questioned Sizemore. I just said Wright would probably age better.

Nobody was saying anything about Wright's aging. He will probably age well.

People were just refuting someone's claim that Sizemore wouldn't age well because he's fast. That is the complete opposite of correct.

I said I thought Wright would age better and then LBJ said "I don't agree with whoever said Grady won't age well." I'm pretty sure no one said anything about him not aging well.
