Who can go run 'em down in those vast expanses? Get on your horse and choose two.

I'm trying so hard not to vote for Mookie, but how can I vote against Mookie. Also, Doug Glanville's years as a Cub (1996-97, 2003) don't count but his years as Phillie (1998-2002, 2004) do. Well, Mookie & Glanville make the all-time nice guys team.

This was tougher than I expected. But I see Dawson is not on the right field list so he gets my nod here. And Andruw Jones gets it over Beltran I'm afraid. At this point I can't do any projecting for Carlos.

Dawson and Jones... This looks like the NL East's weakest position historically.

Benjamin Grimm May 28 2010 01:37 PM Re: All-Time National League East Team: The Center Fielder

Me too... Jones and Dawson.

Dawson was a hell of a center fielder. It's the pudgy little Dutch dude to back up/platoon. (Sorry, Mookie.)

Rockin' Doc May 28 2010 06:01 PM Re: All-Time National League East Team: The Center Fielder

Andre and Andruw.

MFS62 May 28 2010 06:04 PM Re: All-Time National League East Team: The Center Fielder

I voted here before I saw the right field list(Only been around the infield so far), so Dawson was a right fielder to me. Whether Dawson was there or not, I voted for Al Oliver. He's a borderline HOF-er, and if he won't ever get enough votes there, he got mine here. Later

Edgy DC Jun 01 2010 09:37 PM Re: All-Time National League East Team: The Center Fielder

I kind of suspected Von Hayes to be here. I think he and Oliver share the blessing of versatility that works as a handicap in such votes.

G-Fafif Jun 02 2010 04:48 AM Re: All-Time National League East Team: The Center Fielder

I kind of suspect that I forgot to type Von Hayes' name onto the ballot.

Beltran's closer than you may think. Or at least, he should be. Dawson's WAR in the CF years (100-plus games): 1977: 3.8 1978: 4.3 1979: 3.8 1980: 6.1 1981: 6.9 1982: 7.3 1983: 6.7 Beltran's WAR in the Met years: 2005: 2.2 2006: 7.5 2007: 5.1 2008: 7.1 2009: 3.1 (half-season)
