BEHOLD: Ongoing Lineup Thread, 2019

[WillyM]

In addition to having slumped badly of late, Villar sports an 0-for-19 lifetime against Yankee starter J. A. Happ.

Tonight seems like an especially good time to give him a day off.

Alberto’s batting avg isn’t that bad at .264, but with only two bases on balls his OBP is .272 for the season.

I said “not very good,” which isn’t quite was bad an indictment as “no good.”

Career .500 OPS hitter, .599 this year.   Not a guy you want in the lineup on a day to day basis, much less in the leadoff spot.   But I have no problem giving a day off to Villar, who has slumped badly of late.

The platoon splits totally escaped my mind looking at the lineup.

Disappointing seeing Mancini hit third.

I was honestly expecting better from Hyde.

Why is that bird so angry?  Hess starting? Well can't wait until tomorrow when he sees Straily is starting.

Angry or not angry it’s way better than the ornithologically correct logo.

Not sure if he is angry, He looks like he needs a laxative.

Two of the three defenders who made really stupid mistakes last night are sitting -- Severino and Rickard.   Smith isn't.

Of course, they might have been sitting anyway, especially Severino.

And it's very hard to sit all 3.   You'd have to put Alberto in the outfield.

FRobby Reverse-JInx reigns now that Firestone and Malike aren't posting as much in the game threads. (FRobby previously only known for his straight Jinxes.)
