In my opinion the main benefit of benching Davis was not having to watch him bat.

I think of it as a service to the fans.

Roch said that Brady told Showalter Davis is ready.Btady is still the king And he has not left the building.

He's 7th, which is where he batted vs lefties before the "re-tooling".

Yeah, I misread the posted lineup: I forgot we were playing in a NL park and thought Joseph, not Cobb, was batting last.

Tillman strike 1, Wright strike 2, Davis....

I don't think it's a good idea to pitch Bundy in back to back starts.

Not sure what Buck is thinking there.

And here is a great example of how different posters approach the same issue.

Why is Rasmus batting leadoff? Is it his very low batting avg, or his slow baserunning speed?

He needs enough at bats to qualify for the batting title.

He got his first MLB hit yesterday. He should be glad he wasn't sent down afterwards like Wilkerson.

Luckily Bundy is out of options.

Brandon McCarthy starting for the Braves. Teheran's arm is tired from pitching yesterday.

The same reason we have tried Davis, Mancini, etc. There is no good option. Also we won the last two games with him leading off so let it ride.
