Couldn't agree more slick. Carl Crawford is by far the best defensive LF in baseball. People claim he is injury prone for some reason also. He has averaged 146 games played since he started playing full time 8 years ago. Pretty damn good and probably in the top 15 percentile in baseball. Also the scary thing is imagine if the Rays didn't have a good defensive CF in Upton who has range, and Crawford played CF. He could even showcase his defensive prowess more so. I agree he's overrated in fantasy baseball, but when it comes to real life baseball there is no baseball player who does what he can when it comes to mixing together defense, speed, and hitting for a high average.
