Good leadoff men

[ANDYCOCHRANE]

I lost out on freel in the draft and Clark and Suzuki have both gone. Can anyone recommend a good Leadoff man to me? Ideally I want a bit if speed but otherwise it looks like I am going to have to go with pure OB with people like B.Giles or Mohr, at least vs RHP. Any other possibilities out there that you have had decent success with?

Thanks.

Chone Figgins is usually my spark plug and good luck charm. You can plug him into left or right field, or, if you're feeling exceptionally adventurous, he can man third base for you.

Luis Castillo, Brian Roberts, Brad Wilkerson, Jimmy Rollins, Jason Kendall... all of those guys have done well for me this year - as always, however, their success depends a lot on the situation you're in.

Although he can't steal bases I have had success with DeJesus leading off vs RHP as well.

I like Pierre, but as a DH ONLY leading off.

I like Jamie Burke, Ive used him at leadoff on a few teams not alot of speed but he will get on base' I have him now on a Turner team

is the most cost effective - vs Lefty/Righty combo. If he is available - DaVannon puts up decent OB numbers vs the rightside, has speed and adequate D, there are plenty of players who have good OB vs the leftside - some already mentioned as well as Bocachia - who has speed and plays 3 pos well.

Pierre has been my best lead off guy.

Davannon and Eric Young platoon; Kendal; Pierre (his OBP results are way better than his card....can't figure it out)

not sure what park you're in but in an even or righty park Kendall and Ford are both nice.
