The infatuation with Francisco is his raw power potential... he has a little E5 potential in him. I don't mind the platoon but I would like better if one outright won the job. Steadiness vs. upside.
Johnson is one of the worst defensive 3B in the majors, any E5 potential Francisco has won't really be an issue between the two. As long as Johnson can hit lefties like he did in the minors rather than he has in the majors we'll be much better off with a platoon really.

Francisco has actually been pretty solid defensively outside of that godawful series in Houston early last year when he made like 4 errors in 2 games.

Maybe I should have clarified. When I said Francisco has some E5 potential, I meant he profiles a little similiar to Edwin Encarnacion. He could possibly be a 30+ homerun bat... but that's not something we'd find out unless he wins the job outright. All three are average/below average fielders.
