He's only playing against RHP, so unless you're ready to go with someone else (Frankie?) against LHP, the lineup will look drastically different from game to game.<BR/><BR/>Grady, in the leadoff spot, gets the most AB per game and is able to create runs by getting on and getting in.<BR/><BR/>If, at some point, a legitimate replacement emerges, I'm all for Grady being slotted down. But Lofton isn't that player right now and Gutierrez (though he did a nice job in Buffalo leading off) may just not be ready.<BR/><BR/>Of course, if I endure many more offensive spectacles like the last few, I'd consider having Vic lead off...well, maybe not Vic.Paul Cousineauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03490622970961409253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11805401.post-86207107441370349112007-08-08T23:16:00.000-04:002007-08-08T23:16:00.000-04:00So you don't feel Sizemore should be dropped from ...So you don't feel Sizemore should be dropped from the leadoff spot?
