What are the average BA by position?
Does anybody know the average batting average by position in baseball? The third baseman on my team thinks that catching every inning of every game doesn't affect performance at the plate.

well its different for every team..catchers arent always lacking in hitting ability like aj from the sox and ivan rodriguez from detroit but mostly you go by batting order not position to find out which position hits the best
