With two outs and R2, R3 or R1, R2, R3, I like 'B'. With 0 or 1 out and RISP, I like C whether a steal of 3rd is possible or not. Back-picks happen, and when they do, I like to be nearer them.
I also work the deep B with two outs and bases loaded or R2,R3,( only when working varsity or juco ).

I agree with that, have always preferred to stay in B - still get a great look at any play.

Thanks

When F2 back-picks R3, you don't get a great look from B. It's a trade-off I find worthwhile with two outs, but I don't pretend it isn't without its detriments.
