I like Freel too...Always have. But he's not an everyday player and the experiment over the last season and a half to try and make him an everyday player has failed. At this point, I'd take Norris Hopper over Freel to leadoff and play CF everyday.

I think Burton is fine where he is. More importantly, I think Weathers is fine where he is as closer. Closing games hasn't been the problem with the bullpen this year - it's getting through the 8th inning to the closer - that's the problem. So far, nobody has shown any consistency as a setup guy.
