Of course he starts. Gold glove defense and a power/speed combo with a great WAR to boot? It is a no brainer. Lombo may hit for a higher average, but its an empty .280, which is useless down the batting order.
But, I will admit I am
over Espinosa. I love getting power from non-power positions.
I still think the long term plan is Rendon at 3B and Ryan at first.
