jazzcat22 said:I agree. Carpenter helps now, all over the field. Why take a chance Lawson will "learn" the other duties. Also, speed in youth can cover up flaws. Soon, if you do not develop those other skills, those flaws will come out.
but you also have to consider that the draft isn't about what a rookie will do in the 1st year, it's about his long-term impact on your club, and what it could be, which is why Lawson's impeccable athletic ability, and potentially higher ceiling, may give him an edge over Carpenter
