Otherwise he has value hitting lower in the lineup. But he needs to do more damage in addition to continuing to get on base.
A guy with a high OBP but without a ton of pop is actually great at the top of the lineup. It's not going to help us a ton if he's walking before Forsythe steps up. But if he walks in front of Hines, we're in business.
