Pierre, the leadoff man, owns a .284/.339/.333 batting line since the start of the 2010 season and will turn 36 years old this summer. Coghlan was named the 2009 National League Rookie of the Year, but he has hit .238/.305/.351 in 803 major league plate appearances since. Polanco, the cleanup hitter, has 13 home runs and a .356 slugging percentage in his last 344 games. Dodgers utilityman Skip Schumaker, for quick reference, owns a career slugging percentage of .377. We’ll just go ahead and stop there.
