Second base is sort of a dumping ground for prospects. It's guys who don't have the arm strength
to play shortstop, the speed to play center field, or the power to play
a corner position. So unless you thrive there, your career expectancy
is not that long, because as soon as you
fall off, you know, in any aspect of your game, there's somebody
younger and cheaper that can come along
and take your job
to play shortstop, the speed to play center field, or the power to play
a corner position. So unless you thrive there, your career expectancy
is not that long, because as soon as you
fall off, you know, in any aspect of your game, there's somebody
younger and cheaper that can come along
and take your job
