Because teams only carry 13 position guys rather than the 15 that teams carried some decades ago, the need to provide good offense for any defensive wizard is much more important than it used to be.<br /><br />46 doubles, 2 triples and just one HR in over 1,400 minor league ABs does not play well. Hopefully, Luis can double that extra base hit rate, as if he truly is a far above average defensive SS, it would greatly enhance his chances of more than a "cup of coffee" big league career.<br /><br />34 of 52 steals career, and only 4 of 6 last year, make the stealing part of his game one that (if improved) could make him look more attractive to big league decision makers.<br /><br />I wish Luis every success for 2017.Tom Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032383157195393857noreply@blogger.com
