Fixes for the Phillies heading into 2013: Third Base
Ever since the forced departure of Scott Rolen, the Phillies have yet to find an everyday, every season third baseman. They won a World Series with the slick fielding, light hitting Pedro Feliz. Placido Polanco seemed like a good option until he began his routine visits to the DL.
Third base is a position that requires the one who is playing it to be practiced on the hot corner...

The 12th overall pick in the 2007 draft, Dominguez has had several teases offensively, but it's never quite all come together for him, as he's a career .252/.321/.410 hitter in 548 minor league games, including an ugly .234/.291/.357 line at Triple-A New...

Player Projections: Third Base
Let’s dig into the Giant’s third basemen for the upcoming 2012 season. Since Edgardo Alfonzo and Pedro Feliz manned the position from 2003 through 2007, the Giants have had little offensive power coming from the “hot-corner”.
After Feliz hit 22, 20, 22 and 20 home runs from the 2004 to 2007 seasons respectively and Alfonzo hitting 13 and 11 home runs in 2003 and 2004, the...
