    Okay I might be a bit biased, but how is Curtis Granderson not on anyone's CF list?

    Huge strikeout numbers, low OBP, almost all of his success came because of his home field and not good defense.
    There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
    There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
    There is society, where none intrudes,
    By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
    I love not man the less, but Nature more.

    40 home runs is 40 home runs. I don't care how you put it. There are not 10 current CFers better than him.

    So you honestly believe all 10 CFers in this list are better? That's a joke.

    Not saying that. But a 40 home run guy is extremely rare to come by. Don't forget 100+ RBI but hey, strikeouts mean that he sucks.....And idk if anybody noticed but this guy has harper and span in the CF list. -____- they're teammates. Harpers not playing CF anymore.

    1. RBI's do not matter.
    2. Granderson is absolute trash in center field.
    3. His OBP was .319.
    4. His homeruns are a mirage created by Yankee Stadium.

    A vast majority of those 40 home runs came thanks to Yankee stadium. Lol RBI. Guys a platoon player. Meh bat that's helped by Yankee stadium. Trash defense.

    Almost half his homeruns were away from Yankee stadium. He's not "absolute trash in CF" and to play your card. "So no stat matters but OBP?" Give me a break..

    He had 26 home runs at home, only 17 on the road.. so no, not exactly "almost half".

    He is absolute trash in CF, -17.8 UZR and -10 DRS last year.

    No, I'll provide you with some other stats that show he's just an above average bat, despite what you think his homeruns mean: 116 wRC+, .346 wOBA.

    Granderson hit 10 more home runs at home. That's not "almost half." And yes, he's trash in CF. No reason for him to play CF with Gardner on the team
