Luis Rengifo, Mickey Moniak Are Candidates To Lead Off
Luis Rengifo or outfielder Mickey Moniak batting leadoff this year. Washington also sees first baseman Nolan Schanuel as the No. 2 hitter in front of outfielder Mike Trout and third baseman Anthony Rendon. Meanwhile, shortstop Zach Neto will hit ninth in the batting order. The 26-year-old switch-hitting Rengifo has fared better against left-handed pitchers, so it would make sense for him to hit leadoff against southpaws, while Moniak hits atop the lineup against right-handers. Between second and third base, Rengifo should play regularly for the Halos in 2024, although his modest power and speed makes him a bench bat in deep-mixed fantasy leagues, at best.
