October 17, 200421 yr What position does Polanco play? I've always thought he was 3B, but on this board, I've seen secondbase and shortstop as well. Is he super-utility? He was moved to 3b at one point last year and played some games there this year, but predominantly played second base. I don't know if he's got good range, but he has a very good career fielding percentage.

I don't know if he's got good range, but he has a very good career fielding percentage. I've heard that Polanco had great range... He's above average to a Gold Glover, depending on who you talk too...
October 17, 200421 yr If our infield contains Polanco and Vizquel, then my vote would be to trade Crede for something simply because I want Uribe to get at bats. Uribe can get plenty of AB's rotating between the three infield positions.
October 18, 200421 yr Polanco had an .860 OBP after the All Star Break as well FWIW according to Ken Rosenthal. That can't be right can it? A third possibility: 2B Placido Polanco, who recovered from a strained left calf to post an .860 on-base percentage after the All-Star break. ...
October 18, 200421 yr Polanco had an .860 OBP after the All Star Break as well FWIW. Wow.......Who needs bonds when you can have Polanco???
October 18, 200421 yr Polanco had an .860 OBP after the All Star Break as well FWIW according to Ken Rosenthal. That can't be right can it? It's an .860 ops by the way. Way to go Ken.
October 18, 200421 yr It's an .860 ops by the way. Way to go Ken. Ahh boy, what a mistake to make. The 1st time I read that, I thought, that surely can't be right can it?
October 18, 200421 yr Ahh boy, what a mistake to make. The 1st time I read that, I thought, that surely can't be right can it? Could you imagine if we had someone batting 2nd that had an .860 obp???
October 18, 200421 yr Could you imagine if we had someone batting 2nd that had an .860 obp??? We wouldn't be able to drive him in anyways. Didn't we have the worst percentage of driving baserunners in from scoring position this season or something. I think I remember Cheat showing us a graph on the subject a few months back.
October 18, 200421 yr i thought we had one of the best... but it just didnt happen often our offense was really clicking when willie and uribe were leading off and actually getting on base so

I think I remember Cheat showing us a graph on the subject a few months back. We were the best in baseball at driving 'em in... But the worst in the AL in getting them there
October 18, 200421 yr We were the best in baseball at driving 'em in... But the worst in the AL in getting them there Yeah I knew it was one of those 2, we lead the Al in 1 category and were last in the other.
October 18, 200421 yr Mike Lowell - 3B - Marlins If Mike Lowell is dealt prior to Nov. 1, he'll be able to demand a second trade this winter. Veterans in the middle of multiyear deals are allowed to demand trades the winter after being dealt. In this case, though, Lowell would be traded early enough that he'd be able to demand the deal this offseason without even suiting up for his new team. Given that Lowell would prefer to become a free agent, he very likely would demand a second deal, which will ruin any market there was for him. It now looks like he'll become a free agent after Nov. 1. Oct. 17 - 1:08 pm et From Rotoword.
