Pat, I think Jackson is just a bit better defensively in CF than Granderson was. I think he is a little a bit faster and little stronger arm. I don’t think he will match Granderson power but not as many holes in his swing as Granderson did. I think Boesch is a big league hitter that covers the plate very well. I know JL wants him to be this way but I think he is too aggressive at the plate and he will start swinging at bad pitches. His glove is still a question mark. I hope Maybin does well for the Marlins because if not it was one sided trade.
