Sizemore will be a good Indians inning grinder vs the cpu, I feel that lofton is a better choice for CF assuming he is in the game
Sizemore will be a 90 power, 85 speed type guy with at least gold fielding, Lofton wouldn’t be a better choice
Lol. You think Sizemore is better than Kenny Lofton. That’s ridiculous. One of the best gloves I have ever seen and he played when there were plenty of stars in the outfield. Sizemore better than Lofton... not on planet earth he’s not.
When he was healthy (06-08), Grady Sizemore was a top 10 player in all of baseball, Kenny Lofton has never been that.
He is not even top 5 in OF during that period, yet alone all of baseball
He most definitely was.

Oh and Grady would absolutely be better than Kenny Lofton in the game.
Maybe, but that’s a problem if so.

Because some people don't realize how good Grady Sizemore was
-
Considering he finished 11th, 10th 12th in AL MVP voting those years I’ll give ya he was the 11t, maybe 10th best AL player over those years.

MVP voting is subjective, is Mike Trout the best player in baseball? Yup,
Should Mike Trout win MVP every year? Yup
Does Mike Trout win MVP every year? Nope -

True. Just to throw this out there to maybe help people understand, Lofton’s best career year is 7.0 fWAR. Sizemore’s two best years are 7.9 and 7.4 fWAR.

Sizemore was the better overall player when healthy.

I disagree. Lofton should be in the hall of fame. It’s crazy to me a career .299 hitter with that elite glove in cf is not in there.

Comparing their best year against each other, Sizemore had more doubles, triples, homeruns, walks, really the only thing lofton was better at when both were at their peak was hitting singles and stealing bases. I would take the 22 steals Sizemore had in his best overall year over the 60 steals lofton had in his best overall year if I’m getting more doubles, triples, homeruns and walks. Some people don’t like WAR but Sizemore accumulated basically a third of Loftons career war in 3 seasons.. when Sizemore was healthy he was absolutely better than Lofton.

Lofton had 62.4 career fWAR, so I agree that he should be in the hof. But he also played for 17 years, whereas Sizemore only really had 4 full seasons. That’s why we can only look at lofton’s prime vs sizemore’s prime. And when you compare lofton’s best 3 seasons with Sizemore’s best 3 seasons, Sizemore comes out on top.

Lol. Like Roy Jones said, “ y’all must of forgot” how good Lofton was in center field.
