2003 MONTREAL POSITION REPORT: Left Field

Earl Binbaum (Avg/Fair/Avg,7/3/6,26yo) is the returning starter. Earl looks like a solid no-speed #2-hitter. He had a .354 OBP last year, and finished 8th in hitting, with a .305 average. He has “C” range in LF. David Martin (Fair/Poor/Avg,4/3/4,32yo) is the utility OF. He has A or B range at every OF position. He’s only had 398 at bats despite spending all or part of seven seasons in the bigs. In Russ Mangan (Avg/Brl/Avg,4/5/6,24yo), we have an almost-ready prospect. Mangan’s got some all-around talent, with an “A” arm, and “A” speed and stealing ability. He can play LF or RF with C range. He’s a 4.5 star guy.

OVERALL THOUGHTS: Mangan is the future, either here or in RF. Binbaum is fine as the starter until Mangan is ready.
