I'd actually prefer NJ in the third spot because of his tendency to take pitches and get on base, but Kearns power is non-existent thus far, so it'll be even worse for RZ.
What are you talking about? You need somebody like Uggla who Ks 11 times in 30 AB batting in the #2 hole. That'll get the Nats on the board! Don't believe me? Well, then ask Fredi Gonzalez!
