if the giants name Burriss as their starting 2b, i'd have to go with him (especially if you need the SBs). If you just want a solid avg go escobar.

i haven't read anywhere where the Giants have named who won the 2b battle though....maybe you have. If so post it please.

Burriss beat Fransden, I'd go with Yunel myself. The guy will probably run more (use his speed) the guy could produce a Stephen Drew type year with a lot of XBHs and solid 5/6 cat production but not produce TOP numbers from any one thing.
The best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be!

Is that confirmed that Burris beat out Fransden? I'm drafting tomorrow Burriss is an attractive $1 guy if he is in fact the starter.
