His defense is good, his OBP is very good, and no one on that team other than Jacoby can go from first to third on a single. Granted, Coco is a very good player also. To his credit, the Sox probably wouldn't have gotten to the playoffs if it wasn't for his defense in CF, but they also didn't have someone like Ellsbury backing him up last year. The one big advantage for Ellsbury is he's shaping up to be a 5-tool player. I believe he deserves a shot at trying to make that happen. How can Ellsbury not get the starting position?
