...as a starting 2B?

How will he do in Polo?

Avila will always hit, but he is better if there are some LHs in your division.

Here is an Avila ring team:

He is a great balance if you have 3-4 big LHs like Brett or Mantle.

Best of luck, sschu

I'll have to dig, but I know I have also. He will hit .350 + if he faces a decent number of LHP's. Just make sure you have a quality defensive SS to offset his weak D.

Here's a championship team with Avila:

Won a title with him in Briggs.

I've won a title with him in Fenway 67. Hits .370+. I remember having a def. SS like Chapman with Cooper at 1b and Keller in LF and Snider in CF.
