But his averageness will manifest itself oddly: he’ll be great at things you don’t see from most shortstops and bad at other things that most shortstops handle better.

He only took 4 walks in the second half. So we still don’t know if the first half was a fluke or if the second half was. Ultimately though being an average major league shortstop still probably makes him the worst shortstop in the division.

It would be wise for the club to start planning for a replacement now; I don’t want to see the extension they gave him as a reason to avoid succession planning for two seasons. Sanchez is a nice insurance policy, but there’s no middle infield prospects in the system.
