After reading a recent article in ESPN the magazine's "Analytics Issue" (which... . oxymoron?) titled Designated Hackers, I was prompted to think beyond their obvious recommendation of moving Miggy to DH. The premise, for those without an insider account or the patience to listen to ESPN dribble on and on, is that the DH has become a dead spot in the order, with only one DH hitting more than 20 HR (David Ortiz) and four (!!) with slugging percentages below .400 in 2011. My expanded thoughts after the jump...
