He hits a lot of doubles. Can work the count to give someone a chance to steal a base. Not getting the most production out of his bat leading off. Those lead off doubles are being wasted. Someone on in front of him, those gappers score a run.
His OB% is fantastic but he should be a #2 hitter. We just need someone to step up and bat lead off. Wong is the best candidate but he needs to earn more walks and quit trying to hit home runs.
