| Dodgers | Yasiel Puig could lead off |
Mon, 03 Feb 2014 15:33:19 -0800
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Don Mattingly admitted that he will consider using OF Yasiel Puig in the leadoff spot this season. Such a move would provide better right-lefty balance in the lineup and move OF Carl Crawford further down. Crawford would bat second, SS Hanley Ramirez third and 1B Adrian Gonzalez fourth. Puig had a .391 on-base percentage last year, which was second on the team. Puig was in the leadoff spot for 28 games last year and had a slash line of .333/.409/.618 with eight of his 19 home runs.

| Dodgers | Adrian Gonzalez a changed hitter |
Mon, 21 Oct 2013 14:02:02 -0700
Los Angeles Dodgers 1B Adrian Gonzalez has changed his plate discipline in recent seasons; he led the National League in walks in 2009 (119) and was third in 2010 (93) but walked just 74 times in 2011 , 42 times in 2012 and 47 times this year. A shoulder injury forced Gonzalez to attempt to pull the ball more often to generate more power. "He's a different hitter," hitting coach Mark McGwire said. "He's just a different hitter. He used to hit home runs to left center field, center field and because of the surgery, he's lost that. It's something he's working at. He's two years out since the surgery, and he's changed his approach." However, Gonzalez's isolated power is also down since his surgery, but he's swinging at over 36 percent of pitches outside of the strike zone compared to just over 26 percent in 2009.
Fantasy Tip: Keep this in mind as draft season approaches in 2014. A-Gon is unlikely to approach a 30-homer season again, and his average could easily come down a level, as well, if the walks continue to plummet. At a position known for producing power, Gonzalez no longer looks to be that type of player.
