1- Starting MLB playing ST: Your starting player at a position where you're extremely thin due to injuries and departing players risks injury by playing ST. This is risky but I can live with that.

2- Starting MLB playing ST in preseason: This one is inexcusable. Dent was an outstanding ST player so he won't benefit by practicing ST play in preseason. However, he has almost never played MLB in the NFL so he needs all the practice he can get for his PRIMARY position. Playing ST would take away from that in addition to risking injury during the preseason. Let him focus on playing MLB and come September ask him to play ST if you must.

ok I started this mess.....LMAO the only thing I'm going to go back to say is that your #2, ok so he did have tons of practice playing ST last year, was it from the MLB position? I'm only asking because I don't remember. Lofton wasn't in on ST was he? I do agree he needs the bulk of his practice at MLB though, which was the main point of my original post
