For a guy that isn't a switch hitter how is it that his lefty batting stats are 90 for contact and 95 for power. Now since he's only a right handed hitter shouldn't those stats be at zero?
It's how he does against LH pitchers.

That's against RHP and against LHP.

Solid list overall, but Crawford is too low and Hamilton and Juan Rivera are too high.

Those are his attributes against left-handed pitchers.

Juan Rivera is better than Carl Crawford? Really? No really? Guy is a walking injury. This just shows how badly baseball games value defense and speed. Its a joke

It actually makes sense not weight in defense too much for the LF overall rating.
LF is an offensive position. There and at 1B you hide your weakest defensive players. You can see at the SS list that defense is weighted in there much more.

Defense is important at every position. Doesn't matter where it is. If you can prevent runs you win. The list is a joke.

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.
