I think Cranford has the ability to play SS for LSU. My concern with him right now is that he’s only about 11 months removed from Tommy John surgery. Would he have the arm strength right now to make the necessary throws?

Agree on both accounts. Not enough to argue for Cranford, or against him. You can maybe argue for Hal, but definitely argue against him.

I kind of feel like SS may be a revolving door of Cranford, Hal, Mathis, and Doughty. I don't mean revolving door in a bad way, either. Just play them all there some and let their play dictate who plays there and when. It will give alot of reps to alot of guys, which is great for depth.

I, too, am concerned with Cranford's arm health/strength. On the other hand, 8-10 months is plenty of time to recover from TJ for a position player. Caution is fine with me when you have others to battle it out this early in the season.
