he had the second highest ops by a 3b in the majors last year and led the nl...actually led the nl in every major category at 3b except runs...in fact, he was 16th in the league in ops, so even as a 1b, he was way above average...would have been fifth in the league last year at 1b, and surely would be a good fielder there so, i don't think you can classify his year as anything but awesome...offense is down across the board
