Yes. Vladdy has told the team he prefers hitting third.
But then again so did Bautista and yet Gibby still had him hit second when it made sense to do so.
Vladdy prob wouldnt fight it or anything
Reminds me of Buck commenting on guys who have speed to beat out IF singles... I think it was Brett Lawrie
Buck says "if I'd had speed like that I'd have hit 220!"
