Fast fact: Hit .335 with runners on base, .325 with RISP, .243 with no one on. Lowdown: Youkilis gives the Sox a high on-base presence and a glove that Alex Cora pronounced one of the best in the league in his first year at the position. The downside is that Youkilis plays a position occupied by some of the most dominant offensive players in the game, including Albert Pujols, Ryan Howard, and AL MVP Justin Morneau. Compared to other first basemen, Youkilis takes a beating; he ranked 19th in OPS, behind Kevin Millar (.811 to .810).
