And all of that is why I hope we see Benintendi hitting 2 or 3. He runs well, hits for a high average, and has on-base skills to boot. If you hit him at the top, you’re set up to take advantage of that.
If Mondesi continues where he left off 2020, you could hit Merrifield-Benintendi-Mondesi in some order at the top and follow them up with Soler-Santana-Perez-Dozier and give your power guys lots of ABs with fast men on base.
This has the potential to be a really good lineup, gang.
And if they’re actually deadening the ball like it looks like, KC’s staff will play up a bit pitching at a bigger ballpark that is less hitter friendly.
