I assume the lead off hitter should have high OBP, but its okay to have walks. But you want the 2 and 3 hitters to have a high BA and OBP to advance the runner/drive him in. Can you explain point 1.

I'm hoping my pitching staff will do well in this park, headed by Ervin Santana, James Shields, and Justin Duchscherer, but they (and one of my three co-closers, Joe Nathan) have some diamond problems, especially against lefties. My bigger issue may be generally low on base through the lineup, and some weak defense, though.
