It's a year older in his 30's. Oh, and there's one other thing, Melky is ACTUALLY an OF. Having Hanley in front of the monster would likely conjure up at least a couple memories of Manny Ramirez. He thinks too much on the field, so I suppose that might help him.

My point was, you can't just plug a guy in the OF cause he's a subpar defensive IF and expect him to be an adequate OF.
We agree on the OF part, I said I dont like that idea but Hanley is a superior hitter regardless of what end point you wanna look at his stats and regardless of position.

And he played more games than Melky in the last 3 years

Its risky putting him in LF, I dont really like it but give me the guy with a superior bat over Melky.
