I voted to move EE to LF primarily hoping that the FO would get serious about defense and make a move to strengthen it at 3B (and SS). The advantage of moving EE to left instead of to first with Votto going to left is simply that it means only moving one player rather than two. Frankly I don't think we have any chance to contend in 2009 and I hope whatever moves Jocketty makes don't hurt our chances for 2010 and beyond. By 2010 I project Votto in LF, Alonso on 1b, and Bruce in RF--with the great likelihood that the other five spots will be filled by players not currently on our roster.
