Jose Reyes Batting 3rd
The New York Mets' Jerry Manuel is really giving the a jolt of innovation by spreading this Mets rumor. His latest idea is to move the fastest guy on the team, Jose Reyes, to the three hole in the lineup. Now, Mets Junkie's are all about supporting the development of their young stars, but would moving Jose Reyes to the third spot in the lineup hurt is overall value to the team?
Jose Reyes has had an OBP better than .350 for the past three seasons, and has stolen almost 200 bases. That is better than nearly every lead off hitter in baseball. Yes, Jose Reyes has exhibited the ability to drive the ball, and knock in runs, but his real value has been at creating runs and energy at the top of the lineup. Moving him to third instantly changes his mindset to that of a run producer from that of a run creator. I think its a good idea to test the mettle of this blossoming star, but I'd hate to see him change his focus and determination that has made him so effective as a NY Met.
The real question becomes, how would this effect the rest of the lineup? David Wright is the obvious choice to bat cleanup behind Jose. Wright is an on base machine, who loves to be selective at the plate. He's a great hitter to bat behind a proven base stealer because he likes to look at a lot of pitches before committing. But if he lets Jose run, he could easily open up first base, effectively taking the bat out of his hands. I'm all for putting two ducks on the pond in front of a hot Carlos Delgado but putting them on in front of a cold Delgado can be troublesome.
Where do you bat Carlos Beltran? My first inclination is to let him bat first or second. But here's a player who has averaged better than 35 home runs as a Met. There is no upside to letting him hit second and bash one or two run bombs only. Luis Castillo would fill the spot that Beltran didn't, and he may wind up leading off for the Mets. Castillo may look at a lot of pitches, but he's lost a step, and I don't see him ever regaining the form that once made him a force in the NL East.
Overall, I'm interested in motivating Jose Reyes to lead the New York Mets. Hell, we gotta try something right?
