Brewer OPS rank by position

[NYChez]

Out of 32 teams:

Catcher: 4th.

First base: 16th.

Second base: 11th.

Third base: 3rd.

Shortstop: 20th.

Left field: 1st.

Center field: 17th.

Right field: 12th.

Pitcher: 9th.

 

Pretty good situation when everyone is around league average or better with everyone returning and the one weak spot potentially being significantly improved.

1st base would be much higher if hart had been there the whole season, otoh, rf wouldn't change much if aoki had been there the whole season

I am very suprised that we rank that highly at 2nd. Is 2nd base throughout baseball that bad that Rickie can rank 11th despite being arguably the worst player in baseball for 2 months?

When Weeks is 100% healthy is is one of the best 2B in baseball, offensively. 2B on average are probably slightly below average hitters. Similar to SS.

In 2009 and 2010 Brewers' 2nd basemen (mainly Weeks) were 3rd in the MLB in OPS. In a good year Weeks is top 5. In a bad year he's still top third.
