Steven, does it matter who is in the outfield? Aside from Melky, NONE OF THEM are competant enough to be there. They are better off calling Bernie to play CF, he will definitely hit better than the .230 Damon is flirting with.

It matters to me because Melke has become some sort of utility outfielder..He's either not playing or playing out of position...Johnny Damon is a joke at left field with his weak arm...Tell me Vlad/James,,why Melke at CF and Damon at LF with Matsui DH...Surely it should be Melke @ LF,, Matsui as DH,, Damon @ CF

Damon and Matsui play LF because they have weak arms. CF is the deepest part of the field, so you want you best fielder there, which is why Melke plays CF.

If the Yanks pick up Rowand, Melke can go back to LF, and Matsui can be the DH. Damon will become the utility player.

the strongest arm should be in RF (because he has the furthest throw to 3B), which is why melke should go there when/if abreu is gone. LF is usually the worst outfielder because you don't need a strong arm to throw the ball to 3B. CF should be the fastest fielder because he has to cover the most ground.

Damon is in LF because he has the worst arm. Right now Melke is the most mobile outfielder so he is in center. You all know what i think about Matsuis fielding, but i choose him over Damon.

i would prefer to have those 24 runs spread evenly over 4 games and that done consistently. A team will win many more games than it will lose if it consistently score 6 runs a game.

Ok then,,so why when Matsui was out Damon stayed at CF and Melke at LF

Because Damon is a natural CF, its where he is most comfortable... so Im sure it was just for the sake of comfort over a prolonged period of time.

don't worry about that rule, it's so obscure almost noone knows about it. if the DH moves into the field the pitcher has to bat in the spot of the person who is leaving the game, or something like that....im not even sure i understand it completely.
