His swing is simply too long. Honestly, some guys just don't produce in the majors like we think they should. I was hard on Hanigan going into last year, and believed Mes should get more time. But you know what? Hanigan is pretty damn good. He's gold with the pitchers, has a great OBP, and is great at throwing out runners. What more could you ask for? The only thing Mes has on him is raw power, and we don't even know if he can translate that to the actual games. We won 97 games last year with Hanigan starting most days and Mes seeing little time. Hard to complain about the results.
