my preferred lineup

LF Garcia 

3B Moncada 

DH Abreu

C McCann

SS Anderson 

1B Alonso

CF Tilson 

2B Sanchez

RF Cordell 

 

Move Garcia to 2B, and put eloy in LF when he comes back

I'd line em up like this, using the starters from todays game:

1-Tilson CF

2-Moncada 3B

3-Abreu DH

4-Alonso 1B

5-Anderson SS

6-McCann C

7-DelMonico

8-Cordell RF

9-Sanchez 2B

Its pretty funny that the one guy he hasn't jacked around the lineup much at all (besides Abreu) is Alonso.  The guy who has easily been our worst player so far.  

A .180 hitter and Renteria has him batting cleanup most of the time.

At this point there is absolutely zero reason for Alonso to be batting anywhere above the bottom 1/3 of the lineup.  

My preferred current lineup would be:

vs. RHP: Leury CF, Moncada 3B, Abreu 1B, McCann C, Delmonico LF, Anderson SS, Alonso DH, Tilson RF, Sanchez 2B

vs. LHP Leury CF, Moncada 3B, Abreu 1B, McCann C, Anderson SS, Castillo DH, Rondon LF, Cordell RF, Sanchez 2B 

 

One Eloy returns:

vs. RHP: Leury CF, Moncada 3B, Abreu 1B, McCann C, Eloy LF, Alonso DH, Anderson SS Tilson RF, Sanchez 2B

vs. LHP Leury CF, Moncada 3B, Abreu 1B, McCann C, Eloy LF, Anderson SS, Castillo DH, Rondon 2B, Cordell RF

just want to say again that this start time sucks.

Nicky in 2 hole, what a joke. TA batting that low, hell only player of the month. RR needs launched at end of year.

It's so perfect

Niiice quick 10 pitch first for Gio

UNLEASH THE TILSON.

It sure would be nice for Giolito to go deep in this game.  Another 7 strong like Nova yesterday would be tremendous.

1/40

Works for me. Game is over before bed time. But yeah 5q0 for you guys is kinda bad

0 SO yet, but Gio looking good early.

No hard contact. Gio is a ground ball/popup machine when he's really feeling good. 

Yolmer is like the game of golf. He affords you just enough to continue to believe you’ll be able to succeed with him 

Playing for one run here is so stupid. 

Bunting in the 3rd inning ?

atta boy Yoan

Not this year.  You can't carry an OPS below 600.

Why even pitch to Moncada with Delmonico batting right behind him? Set up the DP situation.
