My knowledge of 2B sucks, but how does Sandberg stack up to Utley?

Career EQAs:

Utley .305
Cano .283
Polanco .269
Whitaker .290
Sandberg .284

Utley needs a few more years but he is certainly an excellent hitting 2B, much better than anyone listed bar Jackie Robinson.

Again, this has nothing to do with the question posed and is certainly debatable given how much better Utley is than Cano.

everyone tells me that Roach when I say this

but the sky is the limit for Cano

Utley on great run right now but before this season this was a very valid arguement I am not going to let a span of 50 games change my mind

Utley is a much better player than Cano. Homerism at it's finest.

How about 132 games last year where he had an EQA of .331 and an OBP of .410?

alright your right it is not answering the first question

but I can't see how you justify Utley as the greatest hitting 2nd baseman of all time right now

he has not done it for a long enough time

You're right Joe Morgan is the greatest hitting second basemen of all time.

Cano will shape up

Right now alot of pitchers are throwing him inside

he is not handling it too well right now

I have faith in him

Good list but how did Maz get on there? The guy was a terrible hitter, although a very good fielder.
