I don't know if I agree with that. Your #3 hitter comes to the plate the most times with nobody on so he's not necessary in an ideal run producer position. He's gotta drive himself in, essentially. Different skill set for #5 vs #3. Id probably have more power third and more balance fifth. And I'd rather have my better hitter second than third because he ends up with more high leverage at bats than the #3 hitter.

2/4/1 would be my best bats. 4 more power, 2 more balanced, one good obp and least power of the trio.
