Martin Prado excels at cleanup spot Thursday

Martin Prado was moved to the cleanup spot before Thursday's bout with the Mets after outplaying Michael Morse, and finished the game going 2-for-4 with a home run.

Fantasy Impact:

Michael Morse is more of a power hitter than Prado, so the move by manager Mike Redmond was both to jump start the offense by moving slumping Morse down on the order, and possibly make himself look like a genius if things panned out. It's not a long term solution and will hurt the Fish in the long run. The homer was Prado's first of the season and he now has a couple RBI in 35 at-bats.
