In today's Baltimore Sun manager Lee Mazzilli talks about what he is looking for from the #2 slot in the batting order:
"I'm more concerned with on-base percentage because you can do more damage," he said. "I'd rather have a guy hit .280 and have an on-base percentage of .400 than have a guy hit .310 and have an on-base percentage of .350. Especially the guys who can run and steal a base and do damage and be destructive-type players."
I'm glad to see we have a manager who will take OBP into account. Let's hope this means he plans on having Jack Cust on the roster this year as well.
