Third base is kind of odd position for my 1966 National League replay. Some of the better teams are divvying up the playing time like Los Angles (Kennedy, Gilliam and Lefebvre) and Philadelphia (Groat, Taylor and Linz).
Yet, other teams have solid candidates and a few have outright stars at the hot corner. Take a good look at the stats. It may be tough to choose just two.
Here are the defensive ratings:
- Aspromonte – 3B-4
- Bailey – 3B-3
- Boyer – 3B-4
- Hart – 3B-3
- Mathews – 3B-4
- Santo – 3B-5
- Smith – 3B-4
Bold indicates he currently leads the league in that category. To provide some statistical context, here are my replay’s top ten leaders in hitting categories as of July 3rd.
Vote for two!!
