Get a clue fool

Are you aware there have been more MLB players in the history of the game under 6 feet than over 6 feet. If a kid can get the job done does it matter? I think I would rather have Brittle and Slaton speed in the outfield rather than a 6 foot 4 guy that cant cover ground. The change to BBCor bats has taken away the HR so base hit, gap hitters are more in demand.

Who cares?...

Size means nothing in baseball. For your information, Khalil Greene is just 5'10" or so.

It's all about the speed around the bases when we're playing small ball. Who cares about height? From a physics standpoint, taller people would have a higher chance of getting picked off anyways.

I think/hope Jack is going to be aggressive with the stolen bases this year if he can get his speedsters on base...

Really the only two positions it can be advantageous to be tall in baseball are first baseman and pitcher, but even then it's not that that big of a deal.
