His defense at second base would seem to be average, although I thought his decision making there was pretty poor.

That's a good point. Keaschall seems to be a smarter baseball player than Martin, which makes it likely he'll be better at 2B in the long run. Second basemen need to react properly in several different situations and interact with other fielders. Left fielders just need to run and catch the ball.

Yup, going up and hitting the guy decisively when they are not where you threw the ball will make them be in the right spot next time.
