Slo-mo work is terrific stuff. Harvey Pennick, THE teacher of Tom Kite and Ben Crenshaw was a big advocate of making the down move in slo-mo practice situations. But I think Sandy is right on, too. I've advocated Smoak in the lead-off spot...but perhaps #2 is better. He is no MOTO guy. He gets hot and then falls off the planet, and I'm not sure this isn't his Kotchman season. Either way, Smoak's best skill set is OBP related. Put him on base ahead of Seager-Franklin-bomber.
