.Our batting order would not strike fear in anyone. Seriuosly:
1. DeJesus (that's fine)
2. Barney (good)
3. Valbuena (WTF)
4. Soriano (meh, can be a decent #4 when he is hot)
5. Castro (not a #5, and never will be)
6. LaHair (still not doing well, but probably a better fit at 5 than 6 with this lineup)
7. Jackson (sure, he needs to find his spot)
8. Clevenger (perfect)
9. Volstad (obvious)
So...why bat a guy with a .228 avg in the #3. You may as well bat Soriano in #3 if you are not putting Castro/LaHair there.
