"I'd like to see Marte as the regular third baseman for the rest of the year. I've seen enough of Nix over there. As good as he is at second base, he's terrible at third. Nix should just be used to back up Donald and Asdrubal and maybe play the occasional left field. Marte, overall, plays good D at third and I'd like to see him get more regular at bats. He has the power, so I still think he has a chance to be a solid major leaguer." - timinflorida
