Carl Crawford has got to get more love.

Jason Bay is over rated. Carl Crawford is an absolute beast (we see him 19 times a year).

Other than that I think they give too much love to power hitters. Manny is by far the worst fielder in that whole screen shot! He is a future Hall of Famer and is an amazing hitter, but Carl Crawford's 5 tool ability should outway some of the power other players have.

Hollidays power vs Lefties is right on, he just doesn't hit for power against them.

I can agree with you on 1B, although you prefer strong defensive players you are willing to sacrifice defensive ability for a good bat. Usually 1B is the first place you're willing to sacrifice. LF, RF and 3B are the next to go. C, SS, 2B and CF are positions you can't afford to sacrifice D for a bat, you need strong defense up the middle.

LF and RF are different though. Generally you want a strong arm in RF in order to throw to 3B, cutting down runners trying to go from first to third. A lot of parks have big left fields so it makes sense sometimes to have a speedy guy in LF. For sure though you want to have a solid bat with power in your corner outfield spots. I guess it depends on your ball park which corner outfield spot you can afford to sacrifice defense.
