Chase Utley (NL - PHI) vs. Ian Kinsler (AL - TEX)Choose the better overall 2nd basemen by three categories and thus overall1.) Hitting2.) Fielding3.) More Clutch (Tie-breaker)My Picks:Cat. 1) Utley barely beats out Kinsler but Utleys power numbers are better. 12 more HR's, 11 more RBI's and what I think is the most important stat OPS which is On base %(OBP) and Slugging %(SLG) combined of .023 higher than KinslerCat. 2) Utley averages a .982 fielding percentage and that includes 198 innings at firstbase and only one error in his career. Utley averages about 12 errors per year since his first full season. Kinsler is a career .974 fielder with an avg of 17 errors a year and is on pace to break that easily this year.Cat. 3) Utley is a .293 hitter w/ RISP and .289 hitter with RISP w/ 2 outs where as Kinsler is a .322 hitter w/ RISP and .279 RISP w/ 2 outs. Kinsler wins this.I am a little bias but the stats prove my man Chase Utley the winner....your thoughts?
