You can be good if small or bad if tall, however the absolutely valid question is whether when everything else is equal height makes a difference.

Example: I have 2 righty throwing veterans, fielding went down a cliff with both of them but I want to keep the bats in the lineup. Therefore I want to move them to 1B and DH. Both have equally bad infield fielding ratings, one however is significantly taller, however the smaller one has a bit of experience at 1B already.

So should I move the smaller one to 1B, as he has already some experience and that means he will reach his capability earlier? Sensible if height is ignored.

Or the taller one, who will at the beginning be worse, but with a bonus from his height better in the end? Sensible if height matters.
