December 9, 201510 yr I applaud Santana's effort trying to play CF in 2014, but he wasn't good out there. He wasn't horrible and not bad if we take into account he's not an OF. His offense was unsustainable and that was easy to predict.
December 9, 201510 yr Santana playing CF was a fluke. That is, unless you believe that center field to D.San was a security blanket that was worth a .300 point difference in OPS.I believe that loss of self-confidence in his defense can easily carry over to his offense. I believe it, because I have WITNESSED it hundreds of times!
December 9, 201510 yr Let's see, CF was the practically new position for Danny Santana, SS was the position he's been playing most of his professional career. Hard to believe he had a ton of confidence in CF and so little at shortstop. I'm just going to blame his dropoff in offense on the fact that his BABIP over .400 in 2014 was unsustainable and as he dropped down closer to an average BABIP this year, his numbers predictably dropped like a stone.
