Paul Mainieri said he's "taking a good hard look at second base" as LSU tries to improve defensively. Sophomore Collier Cranford could get a start there soon.
He's hitting 0.299 with 4 HRs and 12 RBIs. Cranford is 1-6 on the year.

Because he can’t throw to first. Serious case of the YIPS over there much like Rube Baker or Jose Altuve late last season

I don't get the Arnold hate either. Kid must really suck in practice.
Doughty has been the biggest in-field liability but obviously you're not taking him out of the lineup. Arnold seemed to have a little trouble adjusting to throws from second when he first switched but that seems to have improved.

So you're saying we should play Arnold because he can hit even though we have better defensive players on the bench?

To be fair, a lot of times it seems like when Zach does something well, he follows it with a WTF moment or WTF game
example: He committed an error in extra innings that allowed 2 runs to score last weekend, or leads the team in errors (if you take out Hellmers opening weekend at 3rd base), or he leads the team in strikeouts

And it's odd to consider a change for defense at 2B but PM also said this morning that he was considering Travinski at C for his offense. PM sure knows more than all of us!

I think everyone understands the issue here isn’t the offensive side of the ball, even you.

Lets just put Travinski at 2B and play softball.

lol I was just messing with you man
Posted on 3/18/21 at 1:32 pm to ell_13
i just want someone who make a throw to first that doesn't make the 1b have to be a magician to field and risk getting him hurt.

This is so he can find a spot to put Bianco.

But that doesn’t account for all the times that Morgan has bailed him out with outstanding catches at first.

Are you trying to say second base and catcher are at the same spot on the defensive spectrum?
