“I don’t think Alexei is the typical second hitter,” Guillen said. “The only one we have here, he handles the bat well, is Morel. Morel can swing the bat, put the ball in play. But right now I will wait until Morel gets better and put Missile down there and we can put Morel batting second. I almost did it today, but I don’t want to get too anxious just because he had three hits [Saturday]. If he continues to swing the bat, we’ll see.”
