1. Yonder Alonso in misguided trousers (cardinal) Posted: January 05, 2012 at 04:42 PM (#4029801)Is the bold bit supposed to be negative or positive? Like, does being lefty mean he'll at very least make it to 4th outfielder, or does it mean he'll be lucky to make it that far? (edit: upon rereading, the second clause makes it sound like he'll at least reach the bigs as a 4th outfielder. So, positive.)
Either way, it's kind of a weird thing to write. I always assumed being left-handed was a plus in baseball (which was really my only hope, as a kid).
Which is weird, at least to me.
It seems like 4th OF are more likely to make a career as a lefty-masher, given how many good lefty hitters go to the OF (1B is the only other option) and how many struggle against LHP.
