Yeah, "Kike" Hernandez is in his 8th season, and his lifetime batting average is .239, his lifetime on-base just .310; Cora what are you thinking? Lifetime stolen bases is only 13 so that's not it either. He should be hitting 9th if he has to hit at all.
Except ... Dalbec our first baseman is hitting .198, our left fielder finally got sent down but had been hitting .179, our utility infielder is hitting .188, & our utility outfielder is hitting .104.
Amazingly, the team batting average is a normal .254 thanks to the core but that just means if the 2-5 batters can't score runs the rest of the lineup is dead.
