We’ve been discussing who should bat in the 2 hole, but what is the ideal 2 hole hitter? I’m not sure the traditional line of thought applies any longer. I think we’re ideally looking for someone with good bat to ball skills obviously, but a good line drive rate and low ground ball rate are ideal too……right? Having the ability to take a walk and move the lead off hitter to 2B seems like a positive. Without looking at all the numbers, Tyler Freeman is probably the best fit for the job that we currently have or until Rocchio is ready.
The problem with Freeman for me is the total absence of any power. This is why I like the idea of Rocchio or getting someone like Rengifo.
