You'd want your more experienced outfielder in Center than you would in Right.

Colorado has a pretty expansive yard, so I'm not so sure I'd want Youk in the outfield. That.. and I'd much rather keep Ellsbury in the lineup somehow. Add that to the fact that CoCo isn't 100% since his amazing catch in the triangle and it's really a wash. It may be a moot point considering the condition of Ortiz's knee. If he can manage to play in the field, Youk will most likely sit out at least for most of the game. If the Sox continue to score the runs then it won't matter to have Ortiz in there.
