Tried him once because he is a prolific doubles hitter. Got killed.

Had him in LF once in Dodger Stadium 77. He hit 38 2B, 31 HR, knocked in 110 while scoring 105. His OBP was .402 and Slugging .554. I won 86 games and missed the playoffs because of a tailspin in the last week of the season. I have no way of knowing how much Greenburg's defense contributed to this final week swoon.

The problem with Greenburg is that there is no actual way (that I know of) to judge how much his defense hurts you in LF. You just know that it does. Because of this I have only used him in DH leagues and doubt I will try him as a fielder again.
