For arguments sake, please address this and give me a win difference attributable to all these aspects. I'll give you my estimates in parentheses.

1. Danny's defense vs. Rendon's at 2B (+1 Danny)
2. Rendon's defense vs. Zimmerman's at 3B (+1 Rendon)
3. Zimmerman's defense vs. LaRoche's at 1B (even)
4. Danny's bat vs. LaRoche's bat (+1.5 LaRoche)

So a total of half a win more with a Zim, Espy, Desmond, Rendon infield rather than LaRoche, Rendon, Desmond, Zim.

I would have Danny's defense is better than +1 over Rendon. 
I also think ALR is a much better 1b than Zim mainly due to the experience. 
Are you talking Danny's bat recently?  If so ALR far superior.
