nah i Rethought it and switched it, do you think he could do both?

I'm sure he could. Couldn't be any worse than he was in the 80s. Haha

Unless he brings Yaz out of retirement and plays him every day.

[dabynsky]

How much did Joe Jackson ever play CF? I am honestly asking because everything I have ever read and seen suggested LF as primary position and maybe a little RF.

 

[DewsSox79]

just looking at his stats, he has a WAR. too funny.

What are you talking about?

 

[DewsSox79]

What are you talking about?

They actually have his WAR calculated. I find it an amusing metric to begin with, and now I have to see them calculating a "replacement" level player in that time frame.
