Question: In a hypothetical world in which the Red Sox lineup was actually constructed with a serious attempt at defensive cohesion, how many regulars would be best suited as a designated hitter?
Red Sox
I say at least four. At least. Justin Turner has been the DH for a team-high 43 games, so we must start there.
Masataka Yoshida? He’s a blast to watch hit, but he plays a Greenwellian left field.
