ANALYSIS: Martin Prado isn’t going to hit .400 all season. We all know better than that. But he is a career .293 hitter and routinely one of the most difficult hitters in baseball to strike out. Reliable sources of batting average are harder to come by these days than they used to be. If your league penalizes strikeouts, he’s that much more of a sneaky asset. Prado is without a home run so far, but he’s averaged a dozen per year in his seven seasons as a regular. He’s better suited to the middle infield but makes for a handy sub at the corner, as well.
