I don't see how this lineup, despite its anonymity, is anything but refreshing.

Meh. It's a big step forward IMO. You will not rain on my parade this day, friend!

Hmm, Davis gets the start against the southpaw. Smyly is struggling, but I guess with no Wilkerson this is what we can expect.  

The way I look at it, is that he's getting the start over DJ Stewart.  

Is it just me or have we been facing a lot of lefties lately?  A lot of lineups with Alberto in there lately.

Ok, I'm running on no sleep today and didn't pick up on that. Stewart needs playing time or is he going to get platooned against LHP?

He doesn't have bad platoon splits and he's been playing against lefties so far.

I feel he (and anyone else really) needs playing time over Davis, yes.

Agreed, but I guess they want to include Davis in his first game off the IL. Might see DJ off the bench at some point? Just to cycle guys in.

We now have 5 lefty hitters on the team and still just a 3 man bench, so at least 2 have to play.   Smith can handle LH pitching OK so he's one of them.

Sisco can platoon with Severino, so he can sit vs LH and still play 70% of the time.

Ruiz will sit vs lefties, as Hanser kills them.

That leaves Davis and Stewart.

So there's basically 2 options when facing a lefty:

A.  Mancini in right, Davis at 1st, Stewart sits.

or

B.  Stewart in right, Mancini at 1st, Davis sits.

 

Tonight Hyde went with option A.   I think we have another lefty tomorrow, maybe he'll go with option B.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      5 losses in a row. Baltimore...we have a problem. Thread revisit...O's have no way to win the WS unless...

      Oh get real man. You said that they probably wouldn't even make the playoffs at a time when that was a nearly a statistical impossibility. You were right about nothing.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By ChuckS · Posted

      I would think MLB would like to see offense spike, given the current state of things.  But also, I don't see why anyone wouldn't want the game played with a true strike zone. It will benefit hitters more than pitchers, but ultimately the net impact on offense would be less than you might think after the pitchers adjust and target certain parts of the zone where they are more likely to get calls (possibly the high strike, as umps tend to miss more often off the plate).

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By Moose Milligan · Posted

      I'd say there's zippy chance of Basallo being up here this year.  I mean, maybe for a September call up and a few games in Baltimore but that all depends on the pennant race, etc.  No chance Basallo is on the postseason roster unless something unforseen happens.

      I sort of don't get Elias's plan

      By bpilktree67 · Posted

      Who did the Rangers bring up with there great pitching prospects?    The Astros won with a lot of low level international pitching guys they signed for very cheap.   The draft is such a crap shoot as is the international signing guys so you try to bring in as much talent as possible then figure out who you have.  Look at how many high draft picks never even touch the majors.  Do you think Elias thought Mayo was gonna be one of the best prospects in the game drafting him in the 4th round?   Do you think he knew Basillo was gonna turn out to be one of the best hitting prospects in the game yet other teams pretty much let him land in our lap by not going after him.  Every single team passed on Henderson, Westburg, Mayo(multiple times) so it isnt like these guys were sure things(not that anyone is).  If he knew Henderson was gonna be an MVP player, Westburg was gonna be an all star, Mayo one of the top power hitting prospects in baseball and all the other guys like rutschman, Cowser, Kjerstadt and Holliday were gonna succeed then maybe he would have looked more at pitching earlier but you don't know which players will succeed so lets blame him.  Druw Jones was the consesus top pick in the MLB draft going in and when we took Holliday everyone was kinda like what are they doing and so far it looks like we are the only one that knew what we were doing.

      The 2024 Trade Deadline

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      I think we should wait for the deadline.  We're a lock for a WC spot.  So why make a big trade unless it's for a Game 3 SP?  If it's a home game at OPACY then I want a LH SP.   The names that could be available are Snell, Montgomery, Quintana, Tyler Anderson, Reid Detmers, Manaea, and Kikuchi.   I know we've lost 5 in a row, but it's not that bad.  Look who we've lost to.
