In his second season with the Los Angeles Angels, David Fletcher did everything right. The ultimate grinder, the infielder filled in where needed, fought through at-bats, and ultimately became a bright spot in a down season.
That showed when Fletcher spent time at five different positions last year and accumulated a batting line of .290/.350/.384 with six home runs, 49 RBI, and 83 runs scored. All and all, he was worth 3.4 wins above replacement, according to FanGraphs.
Now as he enters the 2020 campaign, the sparkplug is again showing his acumen and desire, but this time for a new manager.
