Speaking of Beltre, I'm very interested as to where Hargrove will put him in the lineup.
Once he got out of his slump towards the end of May, he was one of our better hitters next year and looked like a decent #3 for most of it. But a good majority of his success came while in the 2 hole.
He spent most of his year in the 2 hole, 3 hole, and 6 hole. Getting 258,163, and 115 at bats respectively.
Here's how those break down:
#2:.310/.367/.574
#3:.277/.331/.515
#6:.252/.312/.357
Obviously the 6th spot is out of the question. While his performance as our #3 hitter wasn't anything to sneeze at, he obviously likes the 2 hole.
So where would you put him?
