He’s a stud athlete. I’m sure he would handle the position well.
Merrifield - 2B
Lopez - SS
Witt - CF
Perez - C/DH
Benintendi - LF
Mondesi - 3B
Santana - DH/1B
Dozier - RF/DH
Olivares- DH/LF
Is how I’d love to see them open the season. Pratto and Melendez would be waiting in the wings.

The potential offense from that lineup is exciting. If that's the way they do the infield, I think I'd like to just move forward with Pratto and have Santana DH and sit when Salvy DH's. That infield D would be pretty amazing...and Pratto likely makes more plays when/if Mondi throws his occasional WTF. Would also prefer Isbel over Olivares at this point. The defense has been...troubling. Also...when/if Mondi is injured, if Witt were holding down CF, does Melendez have enough success at 3B to be the one that gets the call?
