Or maybe they do, but those people are probably kinda nuts.  |
well like the NBA with Center/Forward , players are starting to play multiple postions more in the MLB
but closer and starting pitcher is not the same as 2nd and SS. Plus defense really isnt factored into it unless the player is on the extreme extreme end good or bad, if they hit 600 home runs i dont think defense matters at all etc.
