Jose Reyes, High-OBP Guy
The New York Mets are third in the National League in on-base percentage from their leadoff hitter. They trail Chicago, a mixture of Starlin Castro and Kosuke Fukudome, both of whom have kinda absurd BAbip numbers as leadoff hitters, and Pittsburgh, a combination of Andrew McCutchen and Jose Tabata. Meanwhile, they also lead the league in on-base percentage from their shortstop. Lead the league! In batting average by shortstop they trail only Chicago's Starlin Castro, whom Reyes has exactly as many hits as, and in slugging percentage by shortstop they trail only Colorado's Troy Tulowitzki. But Jose Reyes leads National League shortstops in on-base percentage. How about that?
