[QUOTE="Squints, post: 866520, member: 822"] Over the course of a season it really doesn't make a huge amount of difference but you really want your best guy in the 2 spot. Traditional thinking would put him the 3 spot but that lineup spot comes up with 2 outs and no one base more than anywhere else. It could be problematic when Simpson steals bags as you mentioned but that might be a good problem to have and can be managed by giving Simpson the red light in certain situations. It's a bigger issue if we're asking Simpson to bunt late in games like he did on Friday because teams will bypass Parada every time there and be happy to do it. If that's gonna be our strategy going forward, which I clearly don't love, it's going to be up to the guys behind him to provide the protection to make other teams start to second guess whether that's the way to go or not. Fortunately for us, they're pretty good themselves so we might be able swing it. We'll see. [/QUOTE]
