Here's a question:
Corey-I'm-a-power-hitter-Patterson is batting 3rd today. WHY?????
Why even let this guy sniff the 3rd spot... His biggest assett to that team is his speed, which he chooses not to showcase...
If I'm dusty I hit him 1,2,or 7,8 until he learns how to hit there... He needs to learn how if they want to do anything in the postseason... Even letting him think he can hit 3 right now is just reinforcing his belief that he is a power hitter.
It's like giving into a little kid who's trowing a tantrum, just to avoid a scene... You teach him to throw more tantrums...
Well now CP is going to think he should hit #3 in game 7 of the NLCS.
