This looks like the typical 3rd game of the series after we won the first two games in the series. Any time you bench 3 starters, you're likely going to have a downgrade in ability on the field, both at the plate and on defense.
And somehow I'm going to be glad in August and September that we gave away these games early because our lineup will be so fresh? This lineup policy is akin to a player dogging it on a grounder to keep himself fresh for his next AB.
