I think we are all expecting a resurgence of the april-may J-HEY soon, and I believe I know how to do this--Move him back to 6th.
Let's look at his stats at batting 2nd, 6th.
Batting 2nd: 136AB 20R 2HR 12RBI .235AVG .694OPS
Batting 6th: 39AB 10R 6HR 11RBI .359AVG 1.316OPS
The stats speak for themselves--less than 1/3 of the AB and 3x the HRs...double his OPS...etc...
It is clear, with the kind of production we are seeing out of him now, a line-up change is going to come. I think it should look something like:
1. Prado
2. Gonzales/Infante
3. Chipper
4. McCann
5. Glaus
6. Heyward
7. Diaz/Hinske/Melky
8. McClouth/Melky/Diaz
Putting Heyward back at 6th gives the Braves a much deeper looking line up, and a more efficient, Run-scoring, Top of the order.
Just sayin'
Thanks,
