How much will Manny Ramirez cut into Juan Pierre's playing time? Is he still good to start?

Question

I know he's only good for stolen bases, but that's what I want him for. My Pitching staff is excellent and my lineup is okay.

Answer 1

Pierre has been switched from left field to center field and Ramirez will play left.  Both will start.

Answer 2

the guy above is right. manny is a LF and pierre is playing in center now. matt kemp will now be the right fielder. the only people that should loose time for this is jones and eithier.

this is what i think: manny will play most of the games in left, pierre will play most of the time in center while jones has about 30 percent of the playing time there (unless he improves his offensive production) and eithier and kemp will go 60-40 or 70-30 in favor of kemp. thats my poinion

Answer 3

Manny Ramirez already got the permanent start on left field, obviously for his hitting power and it was originally Juan Pierre's position. But Pierre and Matt Kemp will still get starting positions, right or center field, depending on Joe Torre's decision. According to the Los Angeles Times, Andre Either will still get some playing time as well, either filling in for one of the outfielders on certain days or coming in late in the game for defensive purposes. Andruw Jones is the one who hurt the most by the Manny Ramirez. Already there are talks of sending him down to the minor league because of his inability to do any type of hitting.  

Answer 4

Manny and Kemp will play. Pierre will platoon righty/lefty. Ethier is probably hurt the most. Andruw can now do even less to get paid big bucks.

Good luck.
