Matt Holiday: Professional hitter and clubhouse leader.

"Aside from providing veteran leadership for his younger teammates, it's probable that manager Joe Girardi pencils the nearly 37-year-old DH in the cleanup spot — sandwiched between phenom Gary Sanchez and, perhaps, Greg Bird.

Holliday is an accomplished righthanded hitter, a seven-time All-Star who was one of the most productive bats in baseball during his prime — regularly reaching 5.0 wins above replacement or greater."

"Veteran leader" and "accomplished hitter" ... judges?

Bzzz.

Damn. So close.
