How has Milam looked at Short Stop?
If Milam does become SS does Person play 2nd base well enough to be everyday 2nd base.

Reason for question is J. Brown has looked good and Bingham too. Both LF and RF with Kling in Center.

Milam looks like the everyday 2nd Baseman. If Braswell doesn't start hitting (I am sure he will) but if he doesn't just wondering if Milam at Short and Pearson at 2nd could be an everyday solution.

Need a larger sample size, but Milam looked just as capable today and is a much better skilled hitter.

I’m confused on if you are watching games or not. You are asking if Milam can play SS and if Pearson can play 2nd. But then you say that Brown and Bingham have looked good and that Milam looks good at 2nd

Milam at either spot will work. We have no shortage of fielders it appears. Milam can even cover third if needed.

I haven't watched the whole game and getting up and moving around the house or work I haven't seen Pearson and Milam field and turn a double play. I saw Milam field 1 ball so far. I haven't seen Pearson play a lot of 2nd.

Milam is a ball player. He could be our everyday SS

I think this is the kind of thing you shouldn’t say.

SS at LSU is like the QB for the football team - the backup is almost always THE guy fans want. Until he's not the backup and then it's the other guy.

Two days in a row, Pearson and Milam have made some spectacular relay throws to get the runner at the bag.

And their both good hitters in the box. I dont know how it will play out with Braswell but he needs to hit or we are better off having Milam at short, Pearson at 2nd, and Frey or whoever can get some hitting going in Right.

Braswell is fine fielding his position, but if he doesn't produce at the plate he is getting passed up.

It’s really not the same thing at all. Nobody questioned Nola, Bregman, Kramer.

I don't hate Braswell but right now he is not hitting. .250 avg at SS works. But below .200 is not okay. I am just asking a question. But thanks anyway for whatever you just did.

Correct. It’s so early that individual stats are practically meaningless. He literally has 3 less hits than Milam- Who I really like by the way.
