I'm all for leaving CD at leadoff at least until he gets his first hit, or maybe leave him there until he gets his average above .200, which could be the entire year

Only reason I like Davis at leadoff is he can’t strike out looking with the bases loaded in the first inning

Y'all never heard of batting around?

Christoper Lyn Davis is batting 1st for the Orioles.

Mitchell Lyn Garver is batting 9th for the Twins.

 

Polar opposites with the same middle name ???

Based on last nights performance it could be awhile

That is true.

But it is baseball and the unlikely happens daily.

Good grief. It's the first game of the season. Chill a little bit.

Oh yeah, I forgot. This is his first season....

The Orioles paid $23 million for -0.1 WAR last year. Other than JJ Hardy, he was the worst hitter on the team last year. Should have given Nelson Cruz the $23 million.

I want Buck checked for Dementia..  No sane person would have Davis lead off every game. 

[monarchO]

Davis leading off aside our lineup is not as potent as we need. Davis and Trumbo need to resemble what Angelos is paying them.

Why? Is there anything about Davis leading off that is providing a spark?

Morton IV has led the league in hit batsmen in 3 out of the last 5 season (2013, 2014, and 2017.)

Take 3 for the team.
