I was actually thinking this yesterday. Sciambra might be ideal in the 2 spot, but he is really performing well leading off. He is great at working the count, it seems like he goes 3-2 every at bat. And he gets on base a lot!!! Those two qualities make for a great leadoff hitter.

Laird is not getting the bunts down and moving the runners over like you would want in your 2 spot. However, I think it's more about not understanding his role than lack of ability. It looks like he is trying bunt for a hit more than sacrificing...a problem I think should be easy to correct.

I need to see them both against better competition before I say one is better than the other. And it doesn't matter what I think, I'm not the coach.
